was enough low-cost building completed to satisfy the demand in peace times. # ’ ~ “Defense houses will suffer a slump,” he forecast. ; Despite the weed-like growth of suburban business districts, Mr. Hamilton said he believed that eas‘ily accessible transportation facilities would maintain the importance of the downtown area in cities such as Indianapolis. Realtors are rather uncertain yet what effect gasoline rationing will have on outlying business, Mr. Hamilton said, but they probably will suffer.
Ft. Wayne Foresees Boom
Mr. Hamilton’s comments on the possibilities of a building boom after the war followed a U. S. chamber of commerce survey in Ft. Wayne, Ind., which showed that 4 per cent of the city’s 34,000 families already have decided to build or buy, indicating a total construction bill in that area of $1,700,000. “We were hardly in a boom before the war,” Mr. Hamilton said. “It was a natural activity.” Following a board of governors meeting this morning, Mr. Hamilton was to call the convention to order at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon. John W. Galbreath, chaisman of the realtors’ Washington committee, was to speak on brokerage, manage ment and appraising. Following this address, Walter Leckrone, editor of The Indianapolis Times and one of those called by the Baruch committee in its survey of the rubber emergency, was to speak on “The Rubber Situation and Other War Efforts as Related to Civilian Use.” Richard F. Mills, Indianapolis humorist, will speak at the annual banquet at 6:30 o'clock this evening. ° Slipher Speaks Tomorrow
Tomorrow, the final day of the convention, the realtors will hear David C. Slipher, vice president of the National Homes Corp., talk on “defense housing which can be used for other purposes after the war at low cost and minimum waste.” Fermor S. Cannon, of Indianapolis, national president of the United States savings and loan league, will talk on postwar planning and financing. "Election of new officers and a business session will follow a luncheon fomorrow and at 2:30 p. m. Clarence A. Jackson, state defense j director, will talk on “Defense Work —What It Means.” Mr. Jackson’s address will conclude the meeting. Mr. Hamilton said today he expected more than 300: -Hoosi er realtors to attend. : . ¥

The nights are becoming increasingly ‘cold on the barren steppes around Stalingrad, which will be swept by some of the wildest blizzards in Russia by the end of next month, If the Germans fail to take Stalingrad, the possibilities are enormous.

Such an outcome would be the first real defeat of the war for the Germans and would put an entirely different complexion on the coming winter campaign. : Might Save Grozny, Batum It would increase the possibility that the army of the Caucasus
would be able to stop the Germans short of the Grozny oil fields and bar their projected drive to the Caspian. It would have a similar effect on the German attempt to advance along the Black sea coastal road from Novorossisk to Batum. Moreover, failure to take Stalingrad would be a powerful blow to German army and home front morale and to Hitler's prestige. The intuitive fuehrer has committed himself beyond excuse to the capture of the city. Even the vaunted Prussian storm troops have been thrown into the battle in a last desperate ‘effort. ]

These demonstrations had now turned into more active anti-Germai. manifestaticns. Stockholm reported that patriots had offered open resistance to combined raids by gestapo and Quisling police forces, in search of arms caches and sabotage headquarters. As the resw.t of patriot resistance, one big night raiding party showered the fronts of homes and the sidewalks of an Oslo street wtih sub-machine gun bullets, Stockholm said. Jouseholders, sheltering themselves from the fire, could see nothing but they said the shooting was so intense for a time it indicated a street battle, one of a series in recent days. The German state of emergency had already been extended from the Trondheim area to the important copper ‘mine town of Roros, 63 miles to the southeast and 25 miles from the Swedish frontier.

Army aircraft bombed Attu in the latter part of September, demolishing most of the buildings there. A study of photographs made at the time revealed no trace of the enemy either on Attu or Agattu. ‘Since American bombing of those two islands has been infrequent and comparatively light, it was unlikely that the Japanese were “driven out.” It was suggested that they may have moved out or over to Kiska because they realize the futility of sitting around on a few rockpiles doipg nothing.
