foreclosed by receivers, private investors
and banks racing for complete liquidity.p
From Hiram S. Cody, president OF
the Mortgage Bankers Association OF
America comes this declaration IN op-
position:
I'VE earnestly protest against any
permanent legislation like the Federal
Home Loan Bank. which, in our Judg-
nient, would affect adversely the secur-
ity behind the $4,000, ,000, 900 OF mort
gage assets of our financial institutions,
and would result in the loss OF an un-
told number of homes which the own
ers, in the face of every obstacle, now
are struggling to protect"
Gives His Reasons.
Mr.. Cody said his members opposed
the measures for these reasons:
That the normal rate Of construction
q new homes is between 800, 900 and
400 900 annually, whereas he was In
formed of the belief that the Federal
Home Loan Banks would make possible
construction of 100000 homes within
the next five years, or about 100000
annually.
That such abnormal promotion OF
building activity could bring only tenn
porary prosperity, and would add to the
present over-built condition. bringing
an additional depreciation OF realty
values, resulting in a drastic increase
in foreclosures in existing home mort
cages.
That existing credit agencies. aug

Corporation. the National Credit c.

proposed home loan banks predicates
the issuance Of $1,000, ,000,000 Of tax
exempt bonds.
That consideration should be given
the experience Of the Federal Land
Bank System during the current de-
preston when their bonds are de-
preciated, new bonds cannot be sold,
comparatively little can be loaned and
the land banks must be furnished ad-
dltional funds by the Government to
restore liquidity.'
That the home loan bank plan calls
for an increase in taxes and borrow
ing greater than ever required in peace
times; to provide up to S150,000 900
more for the proposed FEDERAL Home
Loan Bank would add to the already
heavy burden"
That this plan is a further effort
along the line of "the strong and grow
ing tendency for the Federal Govern
ment to usurp the functions of State
governments in supervision of local pri-
vate institutions since it proposes to
take control Of real estate finance.

will support expected action by local.
State and national governmental agen-
CITES in furtherance of better housing.
Sixteen States have appointed legis-
lative committees to study new sources
of revenue to help balance their State
budgets and relieve real estate from the
increasing burden of taxation which is
unduly concentrated upon 1t, and es-
pecially upon small houses" he says.
"Our committee will cooperate on this

Resolution Adopted.
A resolution providing for the appoint
ment of the new committee and recon-
mending to member boards the appoint
ment of corresponding local committees
was adopted by the delegate body of the
association at its annual meeting in st.
Louis January 20-22.
At its last annual convention, held
In Baltimore in May, 1881, the assocla-
tion adopted resolution requesting
the cooperation of the Government of

tute, to be centrally and conveniently
located and creating a special COM
n1ittee of the association. OF which Mr..
MacDougall has been chairman. to con-
fer with allied arts ana trades as to
its establishment.
The action was taken on the ground
that a permanent display of methods
and devices, graphically representing
The BEST modern thought, would further
1ha SAAerA knowledge or what is pos
sfble in the making of satisfactory home
areas and would stimulate the use OF
the most efficient methods both in home
building and apartment construction.
Many of the more than 80 commit
tees of President Hoover's conference at
its December meeting reported the need
of housing research, information and
demonstration and the Correlating
Committee on Research recommended
the creation of some organization which
could act as a medium for general in
