G BOOM.
HERE: VERY StiON

Is a building boom comi’ng to Nor-
walk?

Optimistic citizenskeen business
men and those who see with vision.
point out that with low priced lots at d
construction costs. a building boom is
a. certainty.

 

 

 

"One reason why rents are so low
in Norwalk. in comparison with New
York cit}. is because costs of land
and con motion are cheaper than in
many other places." William W. Daw-
son. Jr.. prominent local architect.
whose offices are located at 127 Wash-
ington street. points out. "the diner.
ence in cost of construction of a home
here and in—say New York city. is
surprising. On a. plan that costs $10.-
000 there. 2.500 may be saved by lo-
cating in Nor-walk."

Mr. Dawson is one of Norwaik's op-
timists’who declare that the building
boom. so long prophesied. is coming
soon. if not already on its way.

"Norwalk needs apartment houses."
he continued. “illustrative of. this is
the fact that for the apartment house
being built by William Miller. .more
requests for suites have been made
than there are accommodations. And.
even now. the building" is unfinished."

Mr. Dawson is working on numer-
ous orders which are indicative of the
fact that people are beginning to rea-
lize the fine qualities that Norwalk
has. as'a city of homes. One of his
many orders ~calls for the completion

Must Not .Adopt Bar 3 h
Resolution on New
Conference.

-WOULD HINDER
NEW NEGOTIATIONS

 

 

Herding Says Administra-
‘tion Is “Trying to Be
Helpful.”

By Associated Pres

\VASHINGTON. Dec. 28.—Pres-
ldent Battling asked the Senate to-
ldsy not to adopt Senator Borah’s pro-

 

omic conference. saying in n letter to
Republican Leader Lodge that formal

' Congressional action on the abject

now would embarrass him in negotia-
tions he already is umductlng look-
ing to such a conference.

The president’s letter was sent to
Senator Lodge for presentation dur-
ing the Senate‘s second day of debate
on the Bomb proposal, which is en:-
.bodled in an amendment to the Naval
‘Approprlauon bill.

The president acted directly to.
block Senate action after-rho had con,
suited with Secretary Hughes and
M Senator Lodge had visited tho
lmm House and had reported on
.the prom-s made- in the-determined

«fight akeady being waged again“

the Bonn amendment by Ad
tlon lender-Filo .the Senate. W

Tho letter states that while the
Senate might properly “advise in re-
gard ‘to international negotiations. its
'action on the 'Borah plan might give
"false lmpressions” tO'European pow-
ers. The Administration. the pres-
ident said. was “trying to be hobful"
.in the European situatoin. which had
been given "most thorough and
thoughtful consideration for many
-months."

Without disclosing details of what
he is doing. the president suggested
that Congress might be helpful by
freeing the hands of the allied debt
commission. He also declared that
the reparations was the foundation of
European difficulties. and that this
nation "can. not assume to say to one
nation yrhat it shall pay in.» repara-
tions nor to another what it shall ac-
cept." ‘

As to further armament limitation
negotiations. also provided for in the
Borah plan, President Harding
warned against what might be "a.
gesture of promise to the world which
can not be fulfilled until the nations
directly "concerned express their read-
iness to co-operate to such an end."
