of the federal housinR ndmlnlstrnlion have been convinced since the first day we undertook this task Hint, if we nre to nchlevo results of real value to t.he notion In developing the property modernization plan. there must "first of all be strict conformance to the principles of wund banking. For, essentially, this is a program which has for its real foundation a multiplicity of banking transactions. Describes Typical Situation Let us consider ft typical American community. On the law of averages, there will be in this community many buildings that are run down or are in need of more modern conveniences.

Manifestly it is sound practice to keep buildings in good repair or improve their efficiency. Therefore, loans of this type may be considered within the scope of good blinking if the repairs are needed, if sums borrowed are applied only for the purpose intended, if the value and dlsirabllity of the property is enhanced and if the borrower Is in n. position t.o repay the amount borrowed. While the regulations of the federal housing administration do not require specifically that the lending institutions must determine whether or not the property owners have spent or intend to spend the proceeds of the loan wisely, It will be apparent, of course, that the soundness of the project will have a strong bearing on the property owner's willingness to meet the payments on the note. Therefore, from the.

standpoint, of their own self interest, bankers will exercise cnre in making sura tha the property owner in securing a modernization loan is furthering his own interests. Neighborhood Improvement The advantages to an owner of modernizing his property are obvious and readily understood by the general public, What is less well understood, perhaps, is the added advantage to be gained If a group of owners in a given block or neighborhood alter or modernize their properties 06 part ftf a general scheme of neighborhood improvement. It should be clear that all property is helped by this Improvement of buildings on tho block, nntl this advantage is nil the more marked when a co-ordinated improvement scheme is undertaken for nn entire neighborhood. In projects of this sort, agreement of the owners to act simultaneously and in conformity with the general scheme is essential. Leadership is DEATHS M.

When you drive on concrete it costs you less for tires Illinois main roads are mostly concrete. You save money every mile you drive on concrete.

would think with the commander-in-chief aboard ship the navy woud get excited. Not so with Mne department here when President, Roosevelt wa-i on the Houston. It seemed as if everybody in the country was more solicitous of Mr. Roosevelt than were those directly responsible for his person. The reason is simple.

In t.he first place, Mr. Roosevelt is a mnn and, as any orderly at the department here will I tell you, a navy mnn. fHe may be President of the United States, but, to every man who reports for duty each morning In that block- lone structure almost behind the white house, he still Is Mr. Secretary.) To the navy, he Is remembered as the assistant secretary during the wilson administration. Naval Radio Franklin Delano Roosevelt a.board a naval ship, be it cruiser or destroyer, is, as they say in the na.vy, "salty." And it's because he has so commanded.

His "command" even extends to which is bring studied by the council. wek-erid trips on the Sequoia up and down the Potomac river. Perhaps no better Illustration of this can be had than the procedure followed by the navy In keeping in communication with the president on his vacation trip to Hawaii. Contact with the Houston and New Orleans throughout the cruise was maintained through the navy's own radio station across the Potomac from Washington. Messages to and from the president actually were cleared within a stone's throw of the white the navy department.

He was, during his entire absence from Washington, in closer touch with developments here than he would have been at his own telephone. Routine For Personnel It, was merely routine for the na.vy, however. The same shift of on a circuit every six maintained. The radio channel to NIQF (the Houston's call) was not kept clear at all times. Messages to and from ships in the Houston's vicinity were cleared over NIQF's channel when not in use.

No messages, presldentia.l or otherwise, were delayed either way, and unless marked "Urgent" by Mr. Roosevelt or the white house no preference was shown. It was that way from the time the president left Annapolis until he landed in Portland. So much so that newspapermen a-ssigned to the navy department here received notice of the Houston's orders for future duty before word was officially flashed the president had disembarked.
