Risks In helplnir the Allies would; not be great.

Dr. Perkins continued. Anyway, he said, there no basis for any "trustful relationship" between this country and the European dictatorships.

in charge. on a Real Estate Board Hears Plea for Stoppage To cure the nation' housing ill with huge, government subsidized dwfllin? projects would mean bankruptcy for taxpayers, Roger W. Huntington, Waterville, president of the New York State Real Estate Association, charged here last night. Addressing the Real Estate Board of Rochester meeting In the Powers Hotel, Huntington called for immediate etoppage of government competition with private enterprise, declaring busineae; confidence would be restored "if we can keep out the ever pressing hand of government-" Huntinsrton re-ferred to federal in Utica as farce" and claimed that the $1,000,000 units there had failed to provide homes for Utica residents claseed a-s in slum areas. "We believe that the really poor people cannot qualify as tenant of government housing," he said.

Ooverr.ment might well turn over its subsidies to private Industry for aJum clearance an encouraged home building and home ownership, he added. Last night's meeting also was addressed by Ray Hofford, Albany, executive vicepresident of the Association, who asserted the "rea.1 estate tax is a relic of the horse and buggy days" and that "the ad valorem tax on real property ia a tax on capital." Hofford declared one of the Association's major objectives was a broadening of the tax base "so that real estate will not have to bear the disproportionate share of the tax load it now carries." Discussing assessments, Hofford said that "many properties are over-valued, but under present conditions an owner does not have much chance to get the aasesment changed unless he is a very large owner and can afford to bring certiorari proceedings." Oeneral outlook for real estate today is "not at all bad," Hofford aid, pointing out the stability of investment in home ownership during wartime and the possibility of inflation. "In a world suddenly become insecure, the building industry alone can offer security," he added. Huntington and Hofford were accompanied by Ralph W. Arend, r.ative Rochesterian and now a Utica real estate dealer.
