r. f
Early estimates of the number
of building permits that would be
taken out in Salem during 1924
for new residences have been ex
ceeded, according to the Cham
ber of Commerce bulletin, which
predicts that - at least 250 new
homes would be started this year.
For the first 11 months there were
275 permits issued. It was also
estimated that the homes would
have an aggregate cost of $1,000,-
OOt). According to figures given
by Marten Ponlsen, city recorder,
the 273 permits are valued at
$939,030. The building permits
actually represent about three
fourths of the final cost of the
dwelling.
Some idea as to the size of the
city at present may be gained
from Information given by the
Portland Electric Power company,
which has, electric connections
with 5460 different homes in the
citv and 76 lodging houses and
hotels, giving a total of 5536'.
There are 5142 homes receiving
service from the Salem Water,
Light & Power company; 4046
telephones and an additional 1075
telephones In the rural districts
near Salem.
