There will be a joint meeting of
the Improvement club and the High
lands Woman's club Saturday eve
ming, March 9th at the club house.
The object of the meeting is to find
out how the club may be materially
helpful in working out and financing
a scheme to improve the club house
grounds and make it in reality the
park it was originally intended to
be. There already is a nice start of
fifty trees and a few more trees and
a better irrigation scheme is all that
is necessary to its accomplishment.
1t is expected that Pres. A. E Barg
Nand Wateruser's manager, w. F.
Sonderman will be present to advise
the clubs. We understand that the
ladies intend to serve light refresh
ments.

Bill to Increase Mortgage
Interest lis Condemned
Property Owners Say 1t Would
Place Higher Premium
on Money


The Real Estate Owners Protective
Association has called mass meeting
for Thursday evening, March 20, 1920,
at $3.50 p. m. At the Hote! Majestic,
Central Park West and Seventy-second
Street, to protest against the bill now
pending in the Legislature, introduced
by Senator Gibbs of Buffalo, which
would make 1t Lawful! for holders Of
mortgages to charge T., 3 aud even
per cent on real estate mortgages.
CITY Magistrate Joseph s. Schwsb,
who has been president Of this asso-
citation for many years, said that If the
bill Is enacted into law it would mean
that practically all mortgages would 60
up to IA and per cent. Savings
banks, trust companies, insurance COM
panies and even private lenders would
no longer think of loaning money at
8 or 5h per cent, but would use their
money to buy guaranteed mortgages
from mortgage companies yielding at
least per cent or more, and the re-
suit would be that everybody desiring
to borrow money on bond and mortgage
would have to meet this uncal. editor
iniquitous exaction. Mortgages past
due, Of which there srs hundreds and
thousands in the City Of New York.
would be called in 30 that the holders
,ould place their money in new NOR
cages, yielding much higher rate of
