' "I only wish I could get property to

i have from three to flv applicants for
V every vacant house I can get north of

only sell or improve. The condition, is
retting such that I am rapidly reaching
the point where I will become an advo
cate of tha theory that the land should
be taxed to the full extent of its rental
value. If that waa a law in this city it
certainly would, I believe, open np some
of these big Idle pieces of real estate."

. During the week there have been few

to be quite active buying of warehouse
