HOME LOAN BANKS
TO HELP BUILDING
Tentative Draft of Bill to
Stimulate Dwelling Con-
struction Discussed.
EXPECT CONGRESS TO ACT

A tentative draft of a bill to pro-
mote home building in the United
States through the establishment of
a federal system of home loan banks
is being discussed today at a meeting
of the representatives of the build
ing and loan associations in all parts
OF the country. in the assembly room
OF the Department of Labor.
This question of home building, and
the part that the government should
play in promoting it, is considered by
many senators and representatives
one of the most important to be con-
sidered at the next Congress. 1t is eX-
pected that bill providing for fed
eral system will be presented to Con-
gress as result of the meeting now
going on.
Attending the session today are: w
K. Adair. president Nebraska League
of Building and Loan Associations.
Omaha. Neb.; Charles O'C Hennessy
of the franklin Society of New York
city; Mark D. Rider, president Illinois
Building Association League, Chicago,
Ill: S. S. Smith of the Oklahoma
Building Association League, Okla
homa City. Okla; J. William Huegel
and Charles Spengler of the Essex
County League of Building Associa-
tions. Newark. n. J.: Herman f. Gel
League of Buildings and Loan Asso-
Citations of Cincinnati. Ohio. Fl. V.
Haymaker. Detroit, Mich, building
and loan expert. who is working with
the division of public works and con-
struction developments of the Depart
ment of Labor.
The movement for legislation for
federal home loan banks grows out
of the building and loan associations
desire to make liquid first real estate
mortgages so that additional funds
may be raised on them and in turn
made available for loans to prospec-
tive home builders.
The tentative draft of the bill to
promote home building before the
meeting today provides for a system
of federal home loan banks organ
lied by building associations through
out the country and controlled
through a federal home loan bureau
in the Treasury Department with
federal home loan board at it's head
The board is to be composed of five
members, the Secretary of the Treas
ury being one. and four others, ap-
pointed by the President and con-
firmed by the Senate. Only building
associations may purchase or hold

TO WELD NATIONALITIES.
Conference Here May IL to Discuss
Americanization Plans.

Efforts to weld together the various
nationalities in the United States into
homogeneous citizenship will be en-
braced in plans to be worked out at
the national conference of American
ization workers here during the week
of May IL. In the opinion of Secre-
tary Lane of the Department of the
Interior. under whose auspices the
conference will be held. the melting
pot of the country has refused to
function properly and something must
be done to remedy conditions.
The war has taught. according to
Mr.. Lane. that every important city
has its foreign colony. People in
great cities are too busy to look aft
er these peoples. resulting in foreign
ers clinging tenaciouly to the 1au-
guages and customs of the old world
Four hundred thousand of the first
100000 draft men. says Mr.. Lane
could neither speak English nor sign
the pay roll. The Department Of the
Interior Is seeking an annual appro-
priation of $12,580,000 to educate these
people.
The League of Women Voters Is
planning to hold here. beginning May
5, a series of addresses on reconstruc-
ton problems. Mr.. Lane will speak
on the opening day.
