Administrator McDonald announc- ed that through the week ending April 25 home mortgages accepted for insurance numbered 63,118, with a dollar volume of $254,365,064. “Commitments to insure mort- gages,” Mr. McDonald said, “have to a certain extent taken the place of building permits as the indicator of actual home building that is to come, since the commitment is of- ten issued before the contractor applies for a building permit, The commitment to issue a mortgage starts the hammers and saws going. We cannot, of course, insure a mort- gage on a building that doesn't ex- ist, but when our experts have ex- amined and approved the plans, and specifications for a home, we issue a commitment to the lending insti- tution agreeing to insure the mort- gage on that structure. “The lender, with that commit- ment in hand, turns to cash over to the builder, who immediately starts his men to work. Upon com- pletion of the structure, which our $13.50 to $25.00 $22.50 Special—$2.50 times during the operation, mortgage is automatically insured. This is the reason for the gap be- tween mortgages accepted for in- | surance and insured premium-pay- ing mortgages. The gap is con- stantly widened and we hope it will continue to widen, for it is a very healthy sign and a real barometer to the intelligent business man as to the prospects for actual building in the immediate future. The more commitments we issue to insure mortgages, the brighter the outlook |for the building construction and durable goods industries. Briefly today's commitment is tomorrow’s | premjum-paying mortgage. $2.50 each $4.50 experts have inspected at least three | the | gages on dwellings already con- structed and the change from the old mutiple-mortgage system to the | new insured Single Mortgage Sys-| {tem of Federal Housing Adminis- | tration In the Large Scale Housing Di- vision, commitments amounting to $32,642,158 had been made on 20! projects located in various sections of the country D COLLINS BURIED H. w Funeral services for William H.
