WINNETKA: WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1922 ON YOUR HOME EXHIB PINE Realtors of County Plan Big Exposition A record-breaking year for home building is forecast for 1923 by Wil- liam Zelosky, vice-president in charge of the "Own Your Home" division of The Chicago Real Estate board. While statistics from all parts of the country show that residential building has established an unpre- cedented mark for 1922, indications are that this record will be exceeded in 1923. "The Own Your Home" movement which has been gathering momentum for the past five years, is now in full swing," said Mr. Zelosky, "and the residential building boom of the past year is only the forerunner of the greater boom that should follow next year, as a result of more stable con- ditions in the building industry. "In Chicago, for instance, permits have been issued since January 1st, 1922, for erection of buildings housing 22,569 families. The number of indi- vidual homes is higher than for many years; but it will take several years of building, even at this rate to reme- dy the shortage of homes that exists as a result of the cessation of build- ing during the war." Under direction of Mr. Zelosky, The Chicago Real Estate board is prepar- ing to stage Chicago's greatest "Own Your Home" Exposition and building show at the Coliseum, March 24 to 31, 1923. This will be not merely a Chicago show, but will be presented in co-operation with Evanston, Oak Park, Harvey, the north shore and DuPage county, through their respec- tive real estate boards.
