NANCY PAGE
Nancy Adopts Safety in
Home" Slogan
By FLORENCE La GANKE.

Safety first" is the slogan that should
be adopted by every modern family
Nancy and Peter attended a safety in
the home" campaign lecture and came
home much impressed. They knew they
had reason to congratulate themselves
on the way they had safeguarded the
basement steps. Joan could go down
them a-hying, but safely, since there was
a rail to which she could cling.
This stairway had not been so pro-
tected when they first built the home,
but one trip down had convinced Peter
that his women folks needed the pro-
tecting rail.
He had painted the bottom step white,
too, so that even in the dark 1t was
possible to see when the cellar moor
had been reached.
And he had installed tumbler type
switch which was easily worked from
both bottom and top of stairs.
Another type of accident which
Nancy learned was altogether too tre-
uuent came from climbing up at win
dows and attempting to hang curtains.
A stool was frequently used. The stool
was not securely placed and when the
body was pressing forward to adjust the
rod the stool slipped backward, pitch
ing the occupant against the window
and all too often through the window
pane.
This hazard may be avoided by plac-
ing the stool firmly with nonskid ma
terial under it. They learned that at
the lecture.
Storing grease soaked rags, saturated
with floor oils and furniture polish in q
small, close space is conducive to spon-
taneous combustion. Nancy learned
that such rags should be put into closed
tin containers If it was necessary to
store them.

LAW FOR DISTRICT
Corporation Counsel De-
cIareS City Needs Some Sort

ONE PER CENT PER MONTH
RATE WILL BE PROVIDED
Commissioners Asked to Approve
Capper Proposal on
Organizations.

Corporation Counsel William w
Bride today sent to the Commissioners
report approving the Capper credit
union bill, with few minor amend-
ments, and recommended that the city
headS favor passage of the legislation.
The bill would authorize the creation
of credit unions in the District, per-
mitted to charge members / per cent
per month for small loans. The unions
would be under the control of the
controller Of the currency of the Treas
ury Department.
AS a result Of the careful study
given the subject of credit unions" Mr..
Bride wrote, and comparing the vari-
Gus reports received from the several
States wherein they are in operation,
1 am convinced that their adoption in
the District, through congressional ac.
ton, Will provide much-needed &C.
commodation to the resident of meager
means who must resort to an occa-
sional financial loan to supplement his
income and who is able to comply
with the requirements of credit union
membership.
Not Full Solution.
81 do not believe that its passage
will completely solve the small-loan
problem. There will be those who have
been and will be unable to make this
necessary financial sacrifice for menu
bership. There remain those whose
necessities must be met by liberalizing
the present so-called loan-shark law,
Tor the rates permitted by that law
are too low to permit profitable opera
ton. The best evidence Of this fact
Is that in the past 10 years of its opera
ton not single license has been taken
out by persons interested in making
small loans, and the fact that 1t has
driven those operators beyond our small
area into other jurisdictions where they
operate without our supervision or
control.
I'VE should realize the necessities of
the small borrower who needs money
when he needs it and has little security
TO of1er. We should recognize the neces-
s1ty for the small loan broker, realize
the risks that he takes, and permit him
70 charge rates that are commensurate
with these conditions. We simply blind
our eyes when we refuse to do so, and
the result Is that we have the practice.
whether we like 1t or not, beyond our
borders, but so close to us as to merely
make more difficulty for the borrower
and at the same time remove the oper-
ators from our supervision and control.
Question Studied.
"A study has been made of the whole
question by able economists, and while
approving the establishment of credit
unions, we should deal practically with
the question by enacting a small loans
law which would deal fairly not only
with the turnover, but with the lender
as well. We cannot settle the question
by the enforcement of an unavoidable
law. We need credit unions badly, but
we need also a small l0anS law xvhirh
would recognize the needs of the bor-
rover, the risks of the lender and the
necessity for local Jurisdiction and con-
