1 M ivv 8 ai aJt (BULLETIN) i CROWN POINT, Ind.. March 211 The board of count' commissioners let the A. M. Turner road in North township today to James J. Nedjl of Whiting for $191,576.00. The Chas. Henderson road in Eagle Creek was let to Johnson & Downey of Hammond for $48,439.00. The new road will branch from Summer st. at Forsythe ave., and will go north under the subway at 1 5 1st st. This part of the road will be 20 feet wide. From 1 5 1 st st. it will be 24 feet wide and will continue to Kennedy ave. It will be constructed of concrete with a depth of 9 inches, and will have a granite wearing surface. It is thought that the road will be of great benefit to the people who travel between the two cities, especially if amalgamation is to become a reality. The traffic on the present roads between the two cities will in all probability be confined to pleasure cars while the new road will b used both for pleasure and for trucks, thus relieving the congestion and making the present routes more pleasant.

'!HTERNTON-. NE'f SfP.'.!Cc' LEAVtNVORTH. Ind.. March 21. The wearing of scanty attire in public has been prohibited in this Ohio river village by an ordinance adopted by the town board. Any person more than fourteen years of age who appears on the street attired in a garment which exposes the arms, shoulders or legs is to be fined, under the terms of the ordinance, from $5 to $25. MATERIALS At eifht o'clock this evening In Room No. 1 of the Lake superior court house the third and fourth sessions of the committee inveetlfatinff building conditions In the CaJumet region will be held in Hammond. The building material eittiatUro i!l b gone into thoroughly. The public wants to know whether er not there is profiteering In build-in materials, whether or not prioea hav rceSd to a permanent level and -whether or not there Is any reaaon to expect price" ever to get back to the pre-war basis. Already the fact h been brought out that economic conditions make It improbable that there will be an reduction In interest rates for years to come. And in fact that interest rates have increased but little, if my, eo far as they affect the email builder. The bearing that freight rates. hve on building coats will come up for consideration. Many people believe that until labor costs of producing lumber, brick, hariwsre and plumbing come down and until the cost of transporting these thnigs comes down that there is no hope of lower building costs. REAL ESTATE MEf HATE IXJflXG. Then the real estate men have ther inning. The cost of lots is a factor in the total cost of a home or a business block. The real estate man is going to have to defend present values of vacant real estate. His commission charges are also to be gore into. The real estate mm wants to know; the public wants t know, the prospective home buyer wants to know whether or not present brokerage chargss are too high, because after the builder has bought his lots and built his houses and placed them on the market the ultimate purchaser has to pay, in the last analysis, for the cost of marketing these h-u.i. The real estate man's advice en the question of the investment feature of business and residential property a' present prices will be of great Interest for the reason that real estate men make it their business to know market and investment conditions. That is their specialty. Attorney' fees and abstract expense will be gone Into. Both have raised In the past, few years Just as have real estate commissions. n5.4I ESlIOS IMPORT AWT. All of these preliminary sessions are important in laying the ground-work for the final sessions which are to take up the question of the labor element which goea Into all building enterprise. At & data to be ann-ounceS later the building employers axe t be called In by the Investigating committee and asked about the building rw from their point of view. It is tha employer that la compelled by his position to be th buffer between th general publie and the demands of the craftsmen In the building trades. Then will come the testimony of the building tradesmen themselves.. Every question has two sidea to it and the employee' side Is Just as Important aa that of the financiers er tbe building material man. The attendance at tha last session Indicates a growing interest In the investigation and the fact that many prominent and less prominent people consider the present building blockade or deadlock a very serious obstacle to the quick return cf prosperity to the North township cities. BI'ILDIG TRAIr.IMFX OtT OF WORK. Many building tradesmen are out of work. Some of them have, not averiy. ed more than 100 days a year of work so that the wage Is coming to be a lsa important matter than the question of fairly steady employment. Theje men are Interesting themselves in this In vest ;ga t Ion in the hope that some compromise will suggest itseK that will make an active building season a certainty and steady work assurred for yeaic to con-.e. The 'union hewds are i it ally interested ir, the Investigation too for the reason that they realize they will n't long be able to hold their men in line if they can't assure them continuous employment as well as high wages. Tn fact everybody interested in th building game which includes th r-'al estate man who sell? lots; tbe banker 11 ho furnijhe the none;.-, the materia; man who sells lumber and cement ss wei; ss the craftsman who furnishes iho labor are ln"-resied in kn vvmi-j-isi what has c-ot to ;,- Uone to convince the reral puhli.-. iv hlcb is bail. ing at the present time, that It o'15'.it to go ahead and build.
