An "Own Your Own Home KxpoaN
lion for UlchrnonJ Is the recommen
dation of K. Hay Hlchardnon, secre
tary of tho Virginia Heul Katnto As
sociation niul tliQ local organization,
in his annual report to t)io president
of the local exchange. This, ho says. !
would drive home to tho peoplo of !
tho city the advantage of owning a '
home. Tho proposition Is similar to
that of the "Madc-ln-Rlchtnond Ex- <
position." which was held last month i
with such great success. In referring
to this movement. .Mr. Itk-hardsui; !
said In his report:
' is it practical for us to father nn
"Own Your Home" Exposition at
one of tho armories It oan be made
to fwiance Itself from exhibitors and
real estate as a whole will benefit
by the publlolty. Tho exposition to
bave as its objects the following:
The financing of tho home by
moulding public opinion (which in
cludes tho banks and lenders of
money) to tho effect that the home
Ik the best Insurance of a good gov
ernment. better citizenship, and the
best stabiliser of labor and banking
credit.
Creating a never-ceasing hearjfelt
desire in all American citizens to own
their own homes.
To creato a sentiment of thrift
fliit will induce every homeless or
rent-paying person to begin now to
save for tho Initial payment for the
liable they will eventually own.
To induce those who have the
money to build now or to buy.
To encourage building operations
on a large scale to relieve the 1,600.
000 national housing shortages, and
thus to glvo employment to every
form of labor.
To visualize to the public every
phftse of home ownership front
planning, financing and construction,
to landscaping the grounds, thus
creating a deslro for hetter homes."
No decision, the recommendation of
Mr. Richardson to the bba.nl of man
agers of the exchange has at yet
been made, the matter still being
under the consideration of the or
ganization.
Many other cities have similar
events annually.
