OF MILFORD Exit 40 Conn. Tpkc. TSL. TR 1-6877 House of the Week --by the Sundau Post Building Counselor For the sloping lot, the multilevel design is one of the best such as shown for the House of this Week, NPS 715. Actually this design is different in that it has four levels.

The main level and upper sleeping level has a living area of 1,433 square feet--the garage level has a work shop included in its 793 square feet of space--in addition there is still a lower level for a recreation room with 615 square feet allotted. Looking to the main level, the living room and dining area are at the back of the house while the kitchen faces the front (toward the street). This has some distinct advantages, especially vith mothers of small children vho are constantly on the alert to see the children do not run into the street. The living room has much more privacy at the back of the house--and it is sure to be quieter and more relaxing. ALL THREE bedrooms on the upper level have on two sides of the room.and are large enough to accomodate twin beds.

In addition to the bathroom, there is a separate lavatory. Incidentally, there is another lavatory situated on the first or main level next to the side entrance. Contrasting colors and materials are used effectively on the exterior of the home. Vertical redwood boarding and nar row face brick form the walls of the upper and lower levels. The main living wing of the house features red cedar wood which could be left in their natural color to weather or stained to suit the taste of the owner.

Windows are casement type with three horizontal lights in each sash. The wide roof overhang shows the carrying rafters brought out to the edge of the ronf rather than cut off at the point where the sidewalls meet the roof line. STATIONARY slat blinds are used for the windows of the upper level as well as for the window in the dining space off the kitchen. Note the hanging pots for flowers adding a decorative touch lo the home. Overall width of the house is 44 feet, 8 inches with a depth of 38 feet, 8 inches.

For additional information on the House of this Week, Design NPS 715, mail a card or letter to Sunday Post Building Counselor. A written reply will be sent to you without charge or obligation as a regular Bridgeport Sunday Post feature service.

UNITED BUI WHAUIT kid I used to play with blocks, erector sets and things like began building real buildings before he was old enough to sign checks--in 1923 at age 18 when his mother loaned him $800 to help erect a one-family home in the Woodhaven section of New York City's borough of Queens. The house sold for $7,600, which was a pretty good price in those days, and young Trump went on to build other homes and eventually a series of multi-family projects. Trump's father died when he was 11 years old and a high school the youth took a job as a "horse's helper" which consisted of dragging lumber up a hill to homesites because the horse- drawn delivery wagon could not climb the steep, snow-covered slope. THE BUILDER-to-be later he came a full-fledged carpenter took courses in blueprint read ing and other subjects related to the construction field and, in 1933 when homcbuilding was almost a standstill, built a self-service supermarket a a "Trump Market." He sold the market after months to King a chain store concern, and when the sign bearing the Trump monnicker came down Trump said he'd never put it up again over a project of his.

"It took a long time to sell me he idea," Trump said about nam- nfi the $70 million Coney Island development. "They told me it vould be a monument to me and most monuments I know are granite or marble." But he was inally convinced and the project, one of New York's largest of its tind, i be "something to remember the name Trump by," he For several years there have )flen slightly less than 10 deaths icr year among every 10,000 Americans compared with 20 births per 10,000. 62 Percent of GI Loans Bought Existing Homes More than 62 per cent of I had a liltle higher lake-homej home loans made in the past income than last year's year were to purchase existing! paid a i more for his home and previously occupied dwellings rather than newly-constructed homes, the Veterans Administration reported today. Noting a more and more veterans are not using their GI loan entitlement to build or buy new homes, the VA said in I960 only 31 per cent of the VA loans were made to buy existing homes. The percentages rose to 41 per cent in 1961; to 53 per cent in 1962 and slightly more than G2 per cent in 1963.

The 1,963 average GI home buy- and, of course, was a i older: than his 19G2 counterpart. THE AVERAGE PRICE a i per home by the GI purchaser in 1063 1962 the average price The average price for new homes was 516,310, as compared with $15,595 in 1962. while the price for existing homes in 1963 averaged $14,665, as against $13,555 last year. Most veterans--about 66 per cent--bought homes in (lie 000 to $19,999 price range. About 21 per cent (as against 35 per cent in 1962) paid less a $12,000 for their homes and 13 per cent (as against 8 per cent in 1962) paid 520,000 or more.

Approximately 20 per cent i the veterans in the survey made' down payments averaging about 10 per cent of the purchase price. The other SO per cent made no down payments, but paid closing costs when these were not absorbed by the seller. The overall average down payment was about two and one-half per cent of the purchase price. THE MONTHLY HOUSING expenses of the 1963 veteran home buyer averaged $143--equivalent to slightly more than 39 per of his monthly income. That expense averaged $136 in 1962.

These amounts include principal and interest payments on his loan, taxes, insurance, fuel, maintenance, utility, repair and maintenance costs. The average monthly income a taxes) of the GI home buying veteran in 1963 was $492 a month, up from $477 in 1962, and up from $172 in 1961.
