There is also a trick of cigarette adver-
tising, whereby few magic words are
used to create the illusion of Goodness"
EXPLANATION: Goodness is determined
by the speed of burning. Fresh cigarettes,
retaining their full moisture, burn more
slowly .. smoke cooler. Parched, dry ciga-
rettes burn fast. They taste hot. This makes
the method of wrapping very important.

HOME LOAN BONDS
TO Be DISTRIBUTED
General Marketing Plan Not
Yet Completed by
Authorities.

Bonds Of the Home Owners Loan
Corporation are now ready for distri-
button for the first time in cases OF new
loans approved, it was revealed today
by John H. Fahey, chairman Of the
Home Loan Bank Board and the cor
poration. At the same time he an
nounced a total of 2,078 loans on prop
critics valued at $5,927,316 were paid
out during the week ending Novem-
ber 10.
A general plan for marketing the
bonds has not been completed, but con-
ferences with prospective dealers have
been held and definite program is in
the making.
Certificates issued in lieu of bonds
in past transactions may now be ex-
changed at the corporation for the
bonds and arrangements have been
made with the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation for their purchase.
Only 54 Paid In Cash.
During the week covered ,bv the re-
port, 2,024 Of the loans approved were
paid in bonds and only 81, with a total
dollar value OF $43,769, were paid In
cash.
More applications also were tenta-
lively approved and a considerable de-
crease in the number Of new applica-
tions was noted To date 1851 loans
have been approved or paid, represent
ing a dollar value of S357, ,074 ,376. The
loans last week averaged $2,921 each.
"One problem facing the corporation
is that of persons filing applications
without real cause" Mr. Fahey said
Many of these people are under mis-
apprehension as to the nature Of the
corporation and the types of properties
eligible It is evident that a great num-
Der OF persons filing applications are
perfectly able to carry their present
mortgages, but seek to obtain the 5 per
cent 1ong-term financing of the corpo-
ration and create defaults to this end.
The board of directors has taken en-
phatic position that it will give no con-
sideration to such cases.
Handled in Businesslike Way.
"The purpose of the corporation is
to do all it can to take care of worthy
home owners who, facing foreclosure
require an entension of time to pre-
serve their homes. Through long-term
financing and lower interest rate Ii
places such properties on a sound. bust-
nesslike basis. But its funds and serv-
ices are not designed to enable people
who are financially able to carry their
present obligations to evade their
mortgage Indebtedness. The unfortu-
nate aspect of the matter is that such
applications and specious defaults
waste time of the corporations field
staff in needless Investigations. Tt is
equally unfortunate from the view
point Of the person presenting such
an application. for he eventually finds
himself in financial embarrassment
being in default to his creditor and
unable to obtain a loan here"

missions attention the proposal to
extend the George Washington Memo

long enough today during his study Of

And, with a sly smile on his face
he added: You can say also that

problem by a mere glance out his office
windows at the swarms of pestiferous
birds which have made camping
ground of the areas around the Dis

not only old-fashioned, but that the
signal lights are far from efficient
Many Of these lights do not work at
all. Hazen said also the operators need
