allot building loans.
The committee would finance two
kinds of residential proiects-sman
one or two family dwellings and big
multi family houses. The home
seeker applying for aid would fur
nish the lot free and clear ; The
commission would then advance a
building loan for the fun value of the
house. but not in excess of 80 per
cent. OF the combined value OF the
land and building.
The loan could be covered by a 6
pr cent. first mortgage equal to the
amount OF the building loan plus the
land. Semi-annual payments would
run for fifteen or twenty years. Upon
completion OF the building the mort
gage would be offered to the public
as a tax-exempt, LIZ per cent. hous-
ing bond and the proceeds made
available for reinvcstment.
All houses under this plan would
be built under the direct supervision

ably be put down on or near the

dications are good.
Robert Stanton, formerly con-
nected with the Midwest and Gulf

enterprise, and will be manager
of the unit selling end of the con-
cern.
Judge Mcknight says that plans
have been made to drill deeper
well than has yet been drilled in
the Jackson area, which would
mean a-well of at least $500 to
1900 feet. In drilling to this
depth the company feels certain
of picking up the formations which
are now producing oil in north
western Louisiana.
The company has divided the
stock into 5000 units, which will
be sold at $50 per unit, thus CIV
ing everybody an opportunity of
owning stock in the experimental
we'll. The company plans to i'm
