CITY MARKET BUILDING FAIRMONT 2794 EVERYTHING FAVORS PRESENT AS GOOD TIME FOR HOME BUILDING ' '■ Reduced prices for lumber and the falling market generally in many lines of standard building materials calls attention more pointedly than ever to the fact that everything favors the .present as a good time for renewed activity to be shown in home building on an .increased scale. That the demand for all kinds of dwellings exists —particularly those' which can be purchased or rented for a moderate price —cannot be doubted for a moment, and everything also indicates that the demand cannot be caught up with, as far as Vancouver is'concerned, for several years anyway. Nor is Vancouver alone in the province. But from practically every city and town in the province comes the same cry of lack of accommodation, so there is no chance of temporary relief through moving w Events of the last-two years have proved that the-man .who built in the early-days of the armistfce'fwas the shrewder and more business-like. .He has 'ad the use of his-buildings and has. seen the price of materials and the cost of labor rise with almost automatic regularity, and the climax to his.secret satisfaction-may not have yet been; reached. The newspapers are full just now of belated schemes to help the houseless to house themselves. The .banks, the1 government an,d municipalities are to be called into conference in some places in an effort to. solve the situation, and many newspapers are not slow to point out that the present slackness in the lumber trade presents at least a temporary opportunity of obtaining one important building necessity at what may prove a considerable bargain yet, especially in the matter of average home construction. The building.season is very much on the wane but the new building season will soon be here with its customery rush to secure material, and the advice to "build now" still holds good. Significant developments .are seen in the national building industry by the heads of several leading building report and statistical concerns. In a canvass of leading manufacturers of all the basis building materials entering into construction of homes, it has been found that buyers who have only recently been prone to cancel orders are now either accepting delivery or are merely requesting that ^hipments be held until after the first of the ye#r. More new construction work has'.already been planned or authorized for the first six months of 1921 than .was ■commenced during the same period of 1920. It is the feeling of Pacific Coast jobbers that the economic revival ov.er the country will have its inception -in building committments, and that buying ' will start almost simultaneously. , STORAGE WAREHOUSE AT PORT HAMMOND PLANNED (Continued from Page 1) short of such products and the prices are higher. The provisional directors of the company are Messrs. Wellwood, Dale, Alcorn and Ansell. It is expected that the organization will-be completed soon arid . plans and estimates of the new,warehouse and its equipment secured. POINT GREY MAINTAINS ACTIVITY IN BUIlLDING POINT GREY—(Special)—The returns of the municipal building' department for the second week of December shows that Point Grey is fully maintaining the decided activity in building which has prevailed for several months past. The total value of the nine permits issued during the week is $17,400, which compares favorably with even that of Vancouver. Included in the total were two new- residences at $5,000 each. . Robert W.

The council also decided to accept the offer 'of -100 feet of 16-inch bell- and-spigot joint steel pipe from the city of New Westminster, at $3.00 per foot.

The total . cost of the two orders of pipe will be $14,S47.50.

In an announcement which Mr. •McLean made on behalf of the party at a luncheon tendered in their honor in Prince George by the Board of Trade of' the northern city-, he stated that provided satisfactory arrangements could be made with the government in regard to the acquiring .of ,suitable power sites and extensive timber leases so as to assure a continuity of supply on a large scale, the neW syndicate Tvas prepared to, spend in the neighborhood of $6,000,000 in the establishment of a power plant with a capacity ,of at least . 50.000 horsepower, a sawmill and a huge pulp and paper mill in the .vicinity" of Prince George. Just which one of three hydraulic sites in the vicinity of Prince George would be ultimately chosen depended on further investigation by their engineers. • The plant would be, a big one, Mr. McLean assured the Prince George citizens, and would cover about 200 acres of ground and employ fully 1,000 men in the bush , and various industries in connection with the mill. It was planned to" manufacture all kinds of paper, from the fine varieties of note paper, down through the list to .newsprint, including the much-used "kraft',; wrapping, and mercantile paper. The only difficulty facing the establishment of the enterprise so far is that certain modifications will be required in the B. C. Forest Act, so as to enable the syndicate to secure an amplitude of supply of pulp wood of the various kinds to assure them of continuous operation for the next ten years or so.'on the mammoth sca'le on which they plan to supply not only much of the Canadian and American but also foreign -markets.^ . First announcement on the lower mainland of this huge enterprise was made over a month ago in the B. C. Record, which on that occasion gave full details of the scheme and the personnel of the noted financiers avdo are behind the venture, and which includes some prominent British capitalists headed by Lord Beaverbrook.
