HOUSING STUDY
PURSUED


CLEVELAND, Jan. 14.-Cleve'
land has taken a leading part
in the pursuit Of housing studies
to facilitate a revival in conStruc-
ton in the cities Of the Great
Lakes area, according to q re-
port to the American Institute of
Architects by Herbert e. Hew-
lit, of Peoria, ILL.,, director Of the
Great Lakes division Of the inSti-
.tute, in which he reviews archi-
tectural and building progress in
the region for 1882.
Although building activities in
such large cities eS Detroit and
Chicago are somewhat slack, Mr..
Hewitt asserts this seems not to
be the general rule. He cites
the case of Peoria, the largest
city in the Central Illinois Chap
ter area, where there has been
residence construction with the
result that employment is slowly
increasing month by month. He
predicts:
Results may be achieved
during the coming year. With
OhiO's State law, setting up q
State housing board TO control
limited dividend corporations
proposing low income housing,
there Is q possibility Of using
Reconstruction Finance Cor
pOrations funds, although no
corporation yet has been
formed In this district"

comments Of building and loan
association managers from many
States were made public by Ward
B. Whitlock, president Of the
United States Building and Loan
League. Particular satisfaction Is
voiced over the fact that present
home mortgage problems are to
be solved through a system sup
ported by private capital rather
than through q billion-d dollar sal
wage sum from the Government,
the building and loan leader said.
The granting thus far Of credit
lines to 250 home financing inSti-
tutions by the Federal Home Loan
Bank Board has been done on the
only LaSiS sound enough to make
possible the flotation Of bonds,
according to the several hundred
comments summarized. The con-
census was that:
"Any man or woman with
experience enough to speak in
the home financing business
knows that the safety Of the
new system Of the begin. ling is
essential to its permanent bene-
fits"
Reactions Favorable
Mr.. Whitlock said that the re-
action Of the building and loan

features Of the banks lending
policies include limitation Of

RUPTURE IS
NOT A TEAR
NO BREAK TO HEAL

Rupture is not tear, but is due to mus
cular weakness in the abdominal waN.
Trusses merely brace these muscles but do
not strengthen them-on the contrary,
the gouging of the ordinary truss pad
often increases this weakness as it tends
to shut off circulation of the blood.
STUART'S ADHESIF PLAPAo-PADS
are pa1enGabIy dtfferent-being mech
anico- chemico applicators-made SELF
ahesive purposely to keep the muscle-tonic
called "Plapao' continuously applied to the
affected parts, and to minimize danger Of
slipping and painful friction. The adhesive
fabric is soft as velvet and clings to the
body without straps buckles or
springs. Easy to app1y-c0mfOrta6le
-fnexpensive. Awarded Gold Medal
Rome, Grand Prix, Paris, Honorable Men,

"mechanico- chemico therapy" tends to-
ward natural process of recovery, after
