EUROPE FORMING
 NEW ALLIANCES
Versailles Treaty Held Partly to
 Blame for Unrest

Madrid, Dee. ( q. .p)-Contiucntal Europe is dividing itself into two great groups. in the opinion Of the authoritative observers of France. Italy and Spain, and each group IS suspicious Of the other and %rmins 10 defend itself from inc other.
 The grouping is similar 10 that which existed before the World WLr Of 1914. except that the powers in yolvcd arc aligned in a different manner.
 The conviction that there is q definite tendency toward q new re- grouping of powers was expressed to this correspondent in many con- Ncrsations during q trip through France. Italy and Spain in the last fortnight These powers have bceu drawn together by mutual economic and political interests, as well as suspicious and dissatisfaction with the status quo of Europe based on the Versailles and other complement tary treaties.
 Italy Is Leader
 Italy seems to have assumed the leadership Of the movement.
 Through the efforts at rapproche- ments with Russia, Turkey and Hungary. Premier Benito Mussolini Of the fascist state, has taken prominent position in the demand for revision of war treaties. Al though the formation of this group is. at present tentative and based on closer economic relationships, the fascist dictator has declared his sympathy with Gcrmany's demands for revision Of the Versailles treaty, to which Italy also has objections.
 Mussolini's recently published statements clearly indicated his be- lief that a grouping of Europe mo two camps already exists.
 Two Camps Exist
 "turopc is now divided into two Camps-onc for changr and tn" other for no change in the Versailles and mplcmcntary treaties" Mu'- sollni said recently. He added thu, Italy was watching tho movom,nls of the various countries with th@ concern of one Nitaliy affected and that Italy will prepare as others arr preparing.
 Soon after that statement. Musso- lni issued a decree for Sunday mill tary training for youths from the age of IS years.
 Other observers Of international politics recently discerncd slmild" tendencies in the action of l1aVil Lloyd George. the British libcr1l party leader. Lloyd George said that "Italy and Russia are being gradu- ally driven by the policy of France, into cooperation with Germany. This regroupment Of powers in Europe IS fraught with danger to world peace.
 InasmuCh as Spain was neutral in the World War, this country has d. neutral outlook on international al fairs.

BUILDINC-LOAN
METHOD USUALLY
MOST DESIRABLE

This is the first vital question.
Home building, as all. other worth
while things, calls for certain sacri-
fees, But it need not involve worry
lat all--if you start right.
First, consider your probable earn
ings for the next few years. Then
compute your rent cost over the
same time. (Rember that your rent
money is gone forcver--it is not an
investmcnt.) And then consider your
method of financing.
There are two kinds of loans avail
able for home financing - the
straight loan generally termed mort.
gage loan and the Building and Loan
loan. 1t is important for you to
know, and to weigh, the difference.
The straight mortgage loan is u.s.
ually for three years. At certain def
inite times during the period of the
loan, you pay interest on the money
loaned. You pay nothing on the
principal, and at the end Of the loan
period, the lump sum borrowed be-
comes due and payable.
Put there is where we strike a
snag III human nature. 1t has been
easy to pay interest-in fact, easier
than paying rent-but what about
that lump sum! Supposing you can It
pay it-and most people can It when
II is due! Then what? A renewal of
the mortgage, with attendant costs,
heavier interest, and the lump sum
still unpaid.
Government figures show that the
average life of the straight loan
is III years-which means several
costly renewals and occasionally re.
suits in foreclosure.
Building Loan Easier
Building and Loan Association
loan is founded upon the principle
of amortization = literally "killing
Off, the loan. 1t enables the home
builder to do two things-first, to

Insurance Cost
Not Main Point

A forgotten bit of Ruskin shouli
be hanging over the door of every
commercial establishment in Amer
lea:
"Therc is hardly anything in the
world that some man can not make
Il little worse and sell a little cheap
or, and the people who consider price
only are this mans lawful prey.
That slogan applies to all busi
ncss--including insurance. BY re-
moving some of the factors devised
TO keep insurance safe, u cheaper
grade of policy can be obtained.
How much it will cost before it ex.
pires, or how much will be obtained
in the event of sudden need, is al.
ways problematical.
1t is automatic that insurance can
only be sold for less money by re-
moving the factors of safety-and
it is to secure safety that most peo-
pie insure.
Sound fire insurance has only one
price-only one standard of service
and safety.

home on a repayment method cores
ponding to rent. Second, to arrange
small, regular monthly payments,
which are far easier to meet than ir-
regular lump sums.
After you have presented your
plans and the loan is determined, a
definite monthly repayment is made,
determined upon the size of the loan.
This includes both principal and in
tcrest. Each installment decreases
your indebtedness and increases your
equity in your home. Should reverses
occur, hc association officials
know your problem and make every
effort to prevent foreclosure. Build
ing and Loan foreclosures arc very
rare.
Building and Loan loans usually
run from six to 10 years. Compare

BOOK SHELVES
CAN ADD MUCH
TO Home BEAUTY

\ home library should be re-
garded not only as book collec-
tion to be placed where most con
vcnient and accessible, but also as
a decorative asset similar to a col
orful tapestry. Well designed
bookcases will bring out the color
and lines of books and make the
most of their attractivcncss.
The modern family, however, us
ually has more books than they
quite know what to do with, In
tercsts have grown SO broad that a
great variety of books is in de-
mand for information as well for
rccration.
Bookshclves must be planned to
prvoidc adequate space for all these
books while making the most of
their decorative value. Fortunate
ly, builtin bookshelves built close
against the walls as part of the
woodwork, take up no valuable
space. A number can be used even
i'll very small house. These book
shelves have the beauty of an in
tcgral architectural feature and, If
carefully planned, will bring out
the charm that only books can add
to home surroundings.
The living room is the logical
place for the greater part of the
family book collection, unless sep
arate room for the library is plan
ned. If there is fireplace, the
projection of the chimney leaves
shallow recesses on either side
where bookcases seem particularly
appropriate. Bookcases can also
be advantagcously placed in either
+ side of a door or window or used
! to balance door or window on the
same wall. II tho library is large
; then can be made to cover the en-
tire end of one wall. They can DC
attractivcly placed under high
window or In a narrow wall space
One of the greatest decorative au'
vantagcs OF books is that they III
into narrow places. An attractive
bookshelf can be placed between
two windows or between a window
and u door where no other decor
alton is poss:n'L.

in MANY WAYS

Home modernization may be u

this to 17.) This is because we do
not encourage people to buy homes
that are obviously beyond their
means, and because the payments are
not burden.
Thus you sec the Importance of
financing to your best advantage.
Some times the interest rate is
slightly less on straight loan, but
by reducing the principal monthly,
the association loan does not have
to be renewed, and at the end OF
tie period you really own your home.
Over the life of the loan, you will
pay less interest in actual money
through Building and Loan type
of loan.
