WALKER TO INSPECT FLUSHING SUBWAY; TERRY BOOMS AREA i Continued from Pace 1. who hava benefitted materially by the change. There ar among thesa many who are dally taking advan tage of the signs of the future snd ars Investing their funds In their be lief In their community and Its fu tnre. That they have not erred and will not may be proven with actual figures and th future will amply care for Itself. "Main st.

property today In Flush Ing Is receiving considerable atten tlon from Investors. Hers the un-precedented price of 15,000 per front foot hex been established and la being maintained. In Amity st. (Iloose- velt ave.) through which the subway will run to Main values hav risen within the 1uat year and several large sales have been recorded through my office. Valuable Hlte Once Went Hogging.

One notable parcel of J60 feet frontag on Amity less than 100 feet from ths entrance to the subway a few short years ago, went begging for a buyer; later a syndicate purchased it for less than 200.000. Thla parcel was sold a short time ago for approximately 12,000 per front foot. It la one or the highly drslratue tne-ster and business sites of ths entire community and the largest parcel available In that locality. "In fact, In any section of Flushing whers activity has been rife. Investors have Invested and mails money.

That they will continue doe not re main to be een but I an established fact. Subway Wringing Activity. "As the subway neais completion builder are becoming active and ars seeking sites for large apartments of the high and mlddle-claaa variety. Demand for apartments In Flushing today Is such that It cannot be met and tt'ls our firm opinion that with the subway nearly ready for actual operation builders of apartment houses who start their operation within a few weeks will have Utile or no dltrtrully In lesslng them. They will nil ss soon as tnty are available for tenants.

"Ths answer to all this I the Ideal location of Flushing. II Is within a stone's throw of Manhattan and with ths an way In operation less than III minutes traveling will bring the commuter to his office or shop by express. On ths other hand ths commuter who prefers ths railroad because of Us proximity to his placs business, may travel on the Long Island ltallroad whlrh, with a running lime of I a to ih nilnules from ths five stations In Flushing to Penn Hi-tlon, maintains a service of lot train per day to and, from Flushing, Triers Is no other section of ths city whlrh can boast of these advantage. Hence the reason for the enthualasra as to ths future of Flushing." bration of the heavy trains rolling on the two track levels beneath them. A cure for this vibration was found and is being used In a perfected form In the erection of this titanic new office building, which will be the largest above ground in the world.

The structure was designed by Mes srs. Sloan and Robertson, and Is being erected by the Todd, Robert son, Todd Engineering Corp. Eastern Offices, Is the owner. Separate Structural Construction. In the first place the steel up rights, which carry not only the New York Central and New Haven tracks but the streets above them, are entirely separate from- the building steel, and a free space of four inches horizontally and two inches vertically is provided between the two sets of steel.

When they come as close together horizontally as four Inches, the intervening space la packed to a certain height with cork. All the buildings in the railroad zone are free and clear in this way, so that the streets may rumble but the buildings not. A damplate at tached to the steel structures which carry the street, and forming a vibration Joint, is inserted between this steel and that of the buildings, and a two-inch slot separates the sidewalks from the buildings vertically even where you see the sidewalks reaching right Into the building walls. Thus traffic In the street cannot produce vibration Indoors. It Is Interesting to look for this slot running the length of the huge office buildings, apartment houses and hotels on lower Park ave.

Once it has caught your eye, it gives you a queer impression that all these structures are suspended two Inches in the air. 200,000 Tons of Material But it was found that when the building and railroad steel rested on the same rock foundation, the vibration could still be "telephoned" through the rock. The cure for this was discovered to be the placing of the building steel on specially designed "vibration mats." These consist of a pan shaped sheet of lead Imbedded In concrete which rests on the rock foundation, a sheet of asbestos three-eighths of an inch thick, a layer of 20-gauge sheet Iron. another sheet of asbestos and sheet lead again on the top. The varlout materials In these mats" all nave different wave lengths, and so break up the vibration and nullify its effect.

Another Interesting point about this gigantic new building is that ths engineers have made allowance tor It to settle exactly three-eighths of an inch. Ths "vibration mats" can be compressed only to a certain point, and that point will be reached only when the last bit of the 200,000 tons of material which Is to go into the Graybar Building Is in place. At that time It will have settled to exactly where It la' expected to be. Its builders are Just as confident of this physical fact as that the building will be finished and ready for occupancy by the first of April next year. FORMAL OPENING OF ISLIP ESTATES SCHEDULED TODAY Long Island Tract Showing Signs of Its Rapid Develop ment-Many Lots Sold.

The formal opening of ths new development at Central Isllp, known as Isllp Estates, organized by a group of Brooklyn business men, will take place today, it was announced yesterday by William F. Began, president of ths corporation. who was ths original owner of the 70-acrs tract. Hlnce ths Isllp Es tates development was announced several weeks ago, a large number of lots have been sold. Ths unusual aucceis of the devel.

opment from Its Inception Is Indi cated by the fact that the corporation several weeks ago added to Its holdings by purchasing the 14 acres sdjolnlng Mr. Regan's original holdings, belonging to Miss I'hoehe Holmes, In whose family the acreage has been held for more than 60 years.

Parks and public institutions are of particular Importance to a rap-Idly growing section. Experience has shown that the former should precede population, and for this reason Bergen County is now looking forward to a program of construction which will Insure adequate facilities of this character in the future. With the authorized $50,000,000 Hudson River Bridge and numerous other transportation Improvements under way or planned It can easily he seen that there Is much work for those In charge of these county projects. MaJ. B.

Duncan McClave of Cllffslde. a member of the re cently created Park Commission, Is enthusiastic over the prospect of providing Bergen with a system of parks which will do honor to the county. Major McClave has the cooperation of the Bergen County Association, a non-profit organization of professional and business men. Now Working on Program. Of course," said Mr.

McClave, In speaking of his work, "considerable time will be required In the working out of a program. Very naturally, the commission is anxious to accomplish ths greatest good possible for the community, and with such a stupendous growth of population In the offing, you can readily see that we must proceed slowly." The development of publlo institutions and hospitals has been a source of gratification to those who have followed the Improvements which have come with the county's expansion. James M. Harkness, clerk of the Board of Freeholders, is au thority for ths statement that Bergen's Institutions, both public and endowed, com pars favorably with any in tne tstate. Plans for New Children's Home.

Plans are now being considered for the construction of a new chil dren's home, and only recently $100,000 was expended In the renovation of ths almshouse, making one of the moat modern buildings of Its kind In ths Esat. There Is no hospital for ths Insane or feeble minded because there have not been enough such oases to warrant the building of these. The cases are sent to the Rtate Hospital. The enddwed hospitals are very high In the ranking given such Institutions. This Is largely due to the generosity of some of Bergen's lesd Ing citizens.

Former Senator William M. Johnson, for Instance, has given more than $500,000 for the maintenance of these hospitals. Dr. Joseph Morris, In charge of the County Hospital at Bergen Pines, contends that Bergen's death rats is unusually low.

Look ahead a few years. Be member that If ths necessity ever arose for unavoidable delinquency In your payments, or forfeiture of your property, you would really be very helpless. Inqulrs about the history of ths developer In such circumstance whether he would help you find a buyer for your holdings. "7. Think of competition.

Re member that the developer Is himself your strongest competitor until he has completely msrketed his holding. Ilecauae there wilt be no apprerluble Increase In value of the property until he la sold out, Inquire about his ability to romplets his sales In the fare of possibly changed business condition Think shout your family. Find out-ahout play space for children and the educational, social nnd recreational surroundings. In 29 years these may maks a tremendous difference In home values. Buy within your means.

Do not buy Installment property for speculation, or with money you might need for some sudden emergency. "10. Chooas carefully only of the heat as you would with any other Invmtment.

Modern five-room bungalow BUILDING MARKET IS BECOMING CAUTIOUS PUSHING NEW PLANS Record and Guide Sees Slowup Until Space Needs Become More Active. New construction projects are still declining In volume and money value, although the amount of work under way Is taxing the capacity of Labor unions and material manufacturers and jobbers to. meet the demand for these elements in the building Industry, says the Record and Qulde.

Contracts awarded in Greater New York during July totaled 738, calling for 8,656,600 square feet of new floor space at a cost of $50,160,900. These figures are considerably below those for June, which brought forth 871 com mitments representing an expendi ture of $66,998,700, and a supply of 11,106,900 square feet of space. In July awards were 115 commer cial buildings, which will add 300 square feet of floor space to the city at an additional value of 12 educational, 88,300 square feet, 7 hospitals and Institutions, 80,000 square feet, 20 Industrial, 181,900 square feet, one public, 16 public works and utilities, 17 religious and memorial buildings, 87,800 square feet, 636 residential, 6,840,000 square feet, $32,586,900, and 14 social and recreational, 218,800 square leet, $1,551,500.

It is apparent many owners and operators are proceeding more cau tiously with new plans. The con tinued warnings of overproduction with the large amount of vacancies In loft buildings and tenement houses throughout the city are having a tendency to diminish the val-ume of contemplated and awarded work and this slackening of produc tion will undoubtedly be maintained In Manhattan until it Is obvious that the supply has practically caught up with the demand for loft, office and apartment accommodations. Mechanics Scarce. Another handicap to construction work this summer his been a short age of skilled mechanics In several of the major trades ana the prevalence of bonuses In these crafts, which has materially effected building costs. The fact that labor Intends to maintain the present scale of wages Irrespective of overproduction or the possible lack of employ ment has also helped to halt some large projects.

The material markets have seldom been busier In this district, and yet there has been little pries fluctuations. What few chanuea have taken nlace have been In the form of re cessions or concessions.
