In an address at a recent meeting held In Louis ville by the lumber and building Interests, to promote standardized and grade-marked lumber as re commended by Secretary of Com merce Hoover and as put Into ef fect by the Southern Pine associa "The standardizing of th va rious grades of lumber. Is perhaps one of the most important Items to be reckoned with in better building." Mr." Jenkins said. If cheap construction Were always a matter of economy, no one would be particularly affected, but I be lieve that more than 75 per cent of cheaply constructed, or the so called 'jerry built' houses, con stitute actual fraud because these houses are sold to people who know nothing of construction and In their anxiety to own a home of the'r own, are induced by an attractive arrangement of long time monthly payments and will purchase these properties, and think they are getting honestly constructed homes. VThe realtors of today have for the past fifteen years been trying to elevate their profession. The realtors in this state and In about even so far as to endorse a state law, licensing brokers Who engage In real estate business with the powertp revoke these licenses for fraud, misrepresentation or dis honesty, and with police power of sending to jail those persons who ttempt to do business without a license or attempt to do business after a license has been revoked."
