B—2 #» NOREATIRACIVE | HONE LOAN PLA Building Association Lead- ers Look for More Flex- ibility of Operations. Making it easier and more attrac- tive for people to build homes by affording them some choice in the| terms of loan repayment is the object | of two steps taken by building and loan association leaders meeting here this week Concerned chiefly about reviving a! normal use of home mortgage credit, | the American Savings, Building and | Loan Institute, holding its annual Midwinter conference yesterday, and the United States Building and Loan | League Committee on Titles II and III ! of the national housing act, meeting | the day before, threw their energies toward plans by which the associa- tions in their 10,000 localities can | make their lending operations more | flexible. There is no intention of | departing from the time-honored building and loan practice of monthly | repayments on the loan, but details - of the borrower’s contract can be varied to encourage more borrowing at this time, it is said. i Study to be Published. ’ The institute authorized the publi- cation of a study devoted to lending | plans, the research bulletin to be for- | warded to executives of more than | 4,000 associations. It will contain | careful valuations of various lending plans and improvements which have been tried out by individual associa- tion managers in many parts of the | country, including direct-reduction | loans as contrasted to the more gen- eral share accumulation loan, variable interest rates depending upon the| risk, life insurance to protect the de- pendents of the mortgagor, and longer Pperiods for amortization. W. R. Gibbon of Los Angeles. re- tiring president of the institute, which is the educational organization of the $7,000,000,000 building and loan busi- ness, indicated that the loan plan study would be one of the most far- reaching surveys ever undertaken by the institute and would undoubtedly be effective in promoting more credit expansion this year. == REAL ESTATE.

SCHOOLS LINKED WITH TAX RELIEF Municipal Services Gener- ally Are Tied Up With Real Estate Problem. “Stable financing for the public schools, uncrippled continuance of necessary municipal services, stable municipal credit, balanced State budgets are all tied inextricably with the problem of tax relief for real estate,” says Walter S. Schmidt, presi- dent, National Association of Real Estate Boards. “They are dependent upon the same shift of tax loads, the same widening of the tax base which are the most practicable means of bringing a fairer tax situation for real estate,” Schmidt continued in comment upon: 1. The more than 1,000 tax bills already reported to the association’s Committee on Real Estate Taxation as now before the legislatures of 44 States. Present Trends. 2. The trend toward: (a) Estab-; lishment of an over-all limitation on | the tax rate for real estate. Bills for | such limitation are now before the legislatures of 7 States. (b) Shifting " WALL CLEANING NEEDS | Recipe Given for Washing Paint- ed Surface. When soiled spots appear on painted walls, the only satisfactory way to re- move them is to wash the entire painted area. Attempts to clean the spots individually will leave rings. Also, it is well to clean the wall before repainting, as grease, soot, lint, dust and cobwebs should be removed. Here is a good cleaning compound for washing painted surfaces: Dissolve one ounce of soap flakes in 16 ounces (one pint) of water and add about three ounces of turpentine. Stir the mixture rapidly and apply with brush or sponge.

MODERNIZINGLOAN MADE BY 12456 Institutions With Backing of | F. H. A. Have Resources of $44,373,000,000. More than 12,000 financial insti- tutions of the Nation, representing a tremendous portion of the country's| Tesources, are today qualified to make modernization loans insurable by the Federal Housing Administration, as the Spring property rehabilitation drive gains early momentum. At the present time 12,456 financial organizations, having resources total- ing $44,373,000000 have signed the administration’s insurance contract. 93,000 Loans Made. | ‘The banking institutions of the country, to date, have made close to 93,000 individual insured loans to owners of property in the several States for the purpose of making re- pairs, additions and alterations, in- volving an aggregate expenditure of $40,000,000. Nor does this figure take into consideration the 30-day lapse between the time loans are made and the filing of reports covering them with the Housing Administration. The administration, by careful ithe country—each -time by a larger The above dwelling, located at 121 Madison street, has been purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Harvey L. Anderson from Cooley Bros. builders.

Taylor, builder: to make eommittee on Titles II and III of the national housing act decided to sub-' mit recommendations to the building and loan associations in regard to their use of and cooperation with the mutual mortgage insurance plan. Again the emphasis is upon giving the association more than one type of merchandise to offer prospective bor- | rowers. John C. Hall, St. Louis, chair- | man of the committee, emphasizes ! the intention of these institutions to | offer insured mortgages as an addi- | tional feature to their present loan | plans developed by 100 years' experi- | ence, and by no means as a sub- stitute. ! Optional Contract Offered. 1 “Just as many of the associations ! have been offering since last Septem- | ber an optional contract for modcrnh; zation loans, either the F. H, A. in- sured modernization credit plan or the older building and loan plan, 50 | the present considerations may lead | to a similar use by the associations of optional plans for their ordinary mort- | gage loans on homes,” said Mr. Hall. | “The depression has taught the en- | tire Nation so much in regard to home borrowing and lending that nobody | would even suggest that the building | and loan associations add to their | lending plans the short-term mnn-J gage Without provision for amortiza- tion. We have never considered this type of loan in keeping with building | and loan's aim of helping the bor-| rower to a home free and clear and nowadays the best minds in other financial circles, as well as our own, admit the futility of such attempts to finance necessarily long-term ubll-‘ gations on a short-term basis. There; are, however, many variations of our | own experienced plan which have ! developed in recent years, and if we| can incorporate the best features of | these into our own offerings to the | public we will undoubtedly appeal to | new groups of families which will| undertake home ownership on one; basis but not on another. The Ameri- | can is still an individualist and you | cannot standardize his type of home- | owner credit beyond a certain point.” | 30 PCT. SIGNING UP IN MODERNIZATION CAMPAIGN IN D. C. (Continued From First Page.) dollars into insured mortgages, and | thercby accomplish much toward the | goal of pulling the construction in-; dustry from the depression. There are some skeptics, however, among private building and home- financing _experts who believe the Federal Government will have to supply the capital for the mortgage associations. They do not believe that sufficient private funds can be | lured into the field The housing act changes were in- cluded in # bill for extension of ; H. 0. L. C. introduced in the Senate by Senator Fletcher, Democrat, of Florida and in the House by Rep- resentative Steagall. It is expected the bill will be reported out of com- mittee hearings this week. MAKING HOME SMALLER | Architects Called In to Cut Down Space. ‘While the majority of home own- ers planning improvements want to provide more room there are a few | occasions when the aim is to cut down space. This is true when the children are all married, with homes of their own, and the mistress of the house finds a large house something ©of a burden. The task of making a house smaller is not difficult in certain types of two-story structures. A competent contractor can make a close estimate on the cost, although it is advisable to have an architect first draw! definite plans for the remodeling. ACHIEVING MODERNISM | Wallboards Conversion. Flexible Help in, Modernistic effects, which are con- ! sidered so smart today, can be ob- tained at little cost and inconvenience through the use of flexible wallboard. ‘This material can be placed directly over the old walls, is easily workable and needs no surface treatment. It is especially effective when used in arching doorways and rounding off corners. Because of its durable and fireproof qualities, flexible wallboard also is suitable for use in sheds, garages, roadside stands, Summer cottages, bath houses and numsrous other struc- tures, East Capitol street northeast; to cost $7.000.

The advantages of adding a sewing 'room to the household, and the ad- | visability of many home owners in- cluding this as a feature of their Spring modernization plans, has been brought to the attention of the Fed- | eral Housing Administration Investigations have revealed that many existing homes contain unfin- | ished space that easily may be mod- ernized and furnished as an efficient, | well organized work room. A small, well lighted room, painted or papered | in bright and attractive colors, equip- | ped with cheerful curtains, well lo- cated electrical outlets and a smooth floor that may be easily cleaned, are the essential requirements of such a sewing room, according to experts. by electricity an outlet should be in- | stalled convenient to the permanent location of the machine.

They have | & strong business interest both in | good municipal credit and in fair | estate tax rates. The depression, with its near breakdown of such tax systems as were based almost en- tirely on the general property tax, forced reduction of municipal operat- { ing budgets from 20 per cent to 40| | per cent (as is estimated in a recent | article in the official publication of | | the American Legislators’ Association). ' That taught us something about the relationship of good schools, good street maintenance, good municipal credit and fair real estats taxes. It | has shown that these objectives of good government, far from being op- posed objectives, are organically re- lated. It is important that the as- analysis of its figures and study of reports from community campaign chairmen all over the country on work undertaken without the aid of berrowed money, estimates the total doilar value of modernization jobs created under the better housing program to be more than $249,000,000 In addition, various private indus- tries have told the Housing Adminis tration they will spend more than half a billion dollars for betterments and replacements during the present year, the operations to be paid for out of their own funds already set aside for the purpose. Canvassers operating in the field have received 916,000 pledges from home owners for work involving ex- penditure of $241,000,000. This re- port is based on surveys in 1,446 cities in which more than 5,000,000 calls were made by field workers. The average amount of insured loans made to date is $422. Although the lending agencies may extend credit under the plan for periods up to five years, the average repaymen: period is shown in the admims- tration’s analysis to be 28 months. UNDERWRITERS T0 0. K. HOUSING EQUIPMENT Only Materials of Untried Char- acter Must Be Approved by Federal Office. Approval of equipment to be used in properties upon which insured mortgages are placed under title II of the national housing act will be left to the judgment of local underwrit- ing offices, according to a recent policy announcement by the Federal Housing Administration. Only in instances where materials, methods of construction, or equipment are of “a distinctly untried character” will definite approval by the Federal Housing Administration’s Washington office be required. Washington approval would be re- quired in cases where new types of pre-fabricated construction, new syn- thetic materials in exposed locations and similar departures from tradi- tional practice are utilized. In such instances approval of materials may be solicited by the local underwriting office or by direct application to the Washington office by the manufac- turer.
