Building Costs and Rent in 1920s America

The article argues that lower rents in Hagerstown depend on reducing building costs as material prices remain high. It cites O'Brien-Disbrow Co and Dow Service Daily Building Reports, notes labor’s share of costs, and suggests landlords will lower rents only when replacement value falls. It also discusses cotton price declines and predicts rent adjustments as costs drift toward prewar levels, warning of landlord behavior and market dynamics. It then shifts to commentary on U S roles postwar, praising Secretary Hughes and the shift toward international cooperation, and reflecting on policy success and the Knox resolution’s timing amid debates over peace and treaty adherence.
