A group of hicks offered him a
poker game and, having moth

He was a Broadway guy and
he figured to take the hicks
over without much trouble.
"After an hours play, he
wound up with a royal flush,
the highest hand in the game.
He got a great play on the
hand, one hick raising and re-
raising for quite study sum.
When the hand was finally
called, the salesman exposed
his hand and started to rake
in the pot. But the h1ck
stopped him.
"'You lose,' he was told. I

THE salesman looked at the

The other man held absolutely
nothing.
Not even a small pair. 1t
was as low a poker hand as
it is possible to get.
"'That's the way we play,
explained the hick as he raked
in the pot. "A lolapalooSa is

"All the other players nodded
agreement, so the salesman let
it go at that. He had never

but after all, he was a stranger

along-and in about 20 minutes
he found himself holding the

VIOLENT JUMPS

IN BUILDING
Architects Head Declares
Cooperation With U. S.
Must Be Closer

NEW HAVEN, Conn, July 20.
"Violent jumps" in the prices Of
building materials threaten to ar
rest recovery in the building in
dustry and to thwart the plans Of
home builders, George H. Gray, OF
this city, director of the American
Institute of Architects for the New
England division, declared.
Mr.. Gray describes the existing
condition as hazardous" The
building industry can be aided by
central coordination from Wash
ington, but it cannot be con-
trolled with heavy hand" he
asserts.
Urges Cooperation
He urges immediate cooperation
between the industry and the
Federal Government to prevent
the diversion of funds into other
forms of investment and to avert
"a great calamity" He says:

Presidents promise of a new
deal that for many families the
time was near when they would
not have to remain in cramped

Gas the price of securities
rose on the stock exchange,
those who held securities real
lied that their means and their
credit were increasing, and that
the prevailing low prices made
it an advantageous time to
build.
Unjust and Unfair
''But just at this juncture an
astounding thing is happening.
Manufacturers have made viO-
lent jumps in the prices of .
number of building materials
jumps as high as 40 per cent
to so per cent. The obvious
effect of this is to take away
the very incentive which had
started the building pickup. If
it became general, it would be
100 per cent effective in arrest
ing the building pickup in its
initial stage.
ut is as shOrtsighted as it
is unfair to the general indus
try, for it will lead to the adop-
tiOn of substitute materials for
those advanced in price.
"Of all fields of activity un-
der the Recovery AdminiStra-

is more intricate than the
building industry, and probably
none which, taken as a whole,
could profit more by central CO.

by the institute at the beginning
of the year, predicted that by

ticularly small ones, might be

TERMS CONFUSE
IN HOME LOANS

CHICAGO, July 29.-Impro-
priety of applying the term Home
Loan Bank to the branches OF the
Home owners Loan Corporation
now being set up in various cities
is cited by Ward B. .Whitlock'
president of the United States
Building and Loan League.
The name is legally applied to
the IL regional units Of the Fed
eral Home Loan Bank System, an
entirely separate organization,
and it's application to the new
emergency corporation Is both
confusing and troubling, the ma
tional building and loan officer
indicated. Mr.. Whitlock said:
Confusion of terms seems to
arise from the fact that the
new Home Owners Loan Cor
poratiOn is supervised by the
Federal Home Loan Bank Board
at Washington. This is its sole
connection with the Home Loan
Banks, however. The banks are
permanent institutions, in which
the stock is owned by some 1000
building and loan associations
: all over the country. They will
act as a reserve system for the
home financing business, and
it is highly important that they
not be confused in the public
mind with the emergency Of
ficeS now being set up"

HOME DESIGNER
HITS CHANGES

NEW YORK, July 29.-"Toc
radical and novel changes in
home design and construction are
in most cases full of troubles yet
to be found, and there are not
many home owners who can af-
ford to find them," H. Wander
WORT Walsh, professor of archi-
lecture, Columbia University, said
today. He went on:
1--WE do not scrap our houses
every two or three years for a
new model. Most of them are
expected to last for 30 years or
more. We have many models,
hundreds of years old, at which
we look with more pride than
we do at some of the latest de-
signs. Building and buying a
house is not the same thing as
getting a new car or a new suit
of clothes. For most people,
the building of a house is the
biggest thing they do in a life
time, and it is only natural that
they should be cautious about
untried new materials and
methods of construction.
"What we need today is to
put more effort into using and
developing what we have in
the way of materials and equip
ment. Manufacturers offer
builders and architects a wide
range of standardized units, in
fact, almost too wide range,
from which to select. By using
good taste, good sense, and
good management, efficient,
beautiful, and low cost houses
can be built from these ma
terials that have been proved
by uSe."

WARNING|SSUED
AGAINST HOME
RACKET"
Illegal to Collect Money for
Arranging Exchange of
Realty Bonds

CHICAGO, July 29.-Pointing
out that anybody who tries to
make money off a home borrower
or mortgage institution by "fixing
it up for him" with the Home
Owners Loan Corporation is liza,
BILE to bring down the wrath of the
Federal Government upon his
head, Morton Bodfish, of Chicago,
executive manager of the United
States Building and Loan League,
today called upon all borrowers
and institutions to report any evi-
dences of "racketeering" in the
home relief program.
He said that building and loan
associations in close touch with
the home owners are hearing
about agencies offering their serv.
ices as "go betweens." If they are
making any charges for this, Mr.
Bodfish emphasized, it is a ques
tionable activity in view of the
wording of section 8 (e) Of the
home owners loan act:
"NO person, partnership, assO-
citation or corporation shall
make any charge in cOnnec-
tiOn with a loan by the cor
pOratiOn or an exchange or
bonds or cash advance under
this act except ordinary
charges authorized and required
by the corporation for services
actually rendered for examina-
tiOn and perfecting of title,
appraisal and like necessary
services. Any person, partner
ship, association, or corpora
tion violating the provisions
of this subsection shall, upon
conviction thereof, be fined
not more than $4,000 or i'm
prisOned not more than five
years, or both"
The league, according to Mr.
Bodfish, intends to call the at
tention of the Senate subcom-
mittee investigating racketeering
created by a resolution intro
duced by Senator Copeland, and
consisting of Senators Copeland
Vandenberg and Murphy, to any
such activities which come to its
notice. It will also ask Better
Business Bureaus and United
States district attorneys all over
the country to watch carefully
the nimble- -witted who are try
ing to line their own purses out
of the home owners distress, by
means of the very agency which
the Government has set up to
relieve them. Said Mr.. Bodfish:
"Any mOrtgage-lending insti-
tuition or borrower who pays
any such charge is not only
doing an unnecessary thing,
but is contributing to a viO-
latiOn of Federal statute. There
is absolutely nothing that any
of these go-betweens can do
which the Home Owners Loan
Corporation officials cannot
themselves do. The corporation
is to have an ample staff.
Unless there has been some
unbelievable change of policy
the United States Government
does not intend to deal with
its citizens through any pri.
vate liaisOn agencies, but di-
rectIy with the applicant him

BUILT
HOMES ARE
POPULAR
Another New Home Completed
and Placed on Display
in Aurora Heights

The present trend toward COM
pactness and smaller homes has
caused architects throughout the
country to turn their attention
and thought to these features in
planning present day homes.
Large, rambling homes not only
cost more money to construct,
but their upkeep is greater, in
fuel, repairs, painting etc.
The modern housewife also OBJ
jects to spending her entire time
cleaning, dusting and sweeping
large extra rooms, when a COM
pact little home will furnish all
OF the room necessary for the
family, and save twothirds of her
time and energy in keeping it
tidy and clean.
An outstanding example of COM
pactness which results in added
comfort and livableness is to be
found in the two beautiful new
homes designed by E. Burton
Corning, architect, and built by
Fred A. Gosnell, well-known
realtor and builder of Clarendon,
Virginia.
Model Homes
These two new homes are To-
Gated at the corner of Pierce
and Winthrop Streets in Aurora
Heights, Va, adjacent to Lyon
Village.
The first is a model Cape Cod
bungalow containing five rooms
and tiled bath which has been in
Spected by hundreds of people
during the time it has been
opened for inspection. It has
been beautifully furnished by
Frank Mickelback, popular furni-
ture dealer of Alexandria, and
presents an extremely attractive
and homelike appearance both
inside and out.
This week, the handsome brick
Colonial six-room home adjoining
the Cape Cod bungalow has been
completed and opened for in
Spection, and the many people
who have visited the model home
will doubtless return to see this
latest masterpiece of the Gosnell
organization.
Center Hall Type
This new home is the popular
center hall type, with the large
living room extending across one
entire side of the house with an
attractive Colonial fireplace, and
opening upon a large private
porch. The dining room and
kitchen having all of the very
latest features such as tiled work
table and sink, console gas range,
Electric refrigeration and the
latest cupboard units.
The upper floor contains three
line bedrooms and tiled bath.
The bedrooms have been provided
with an unusually generous
amount of closet space, and the
location of the windows make
cross ventilation possible, which
another feature which adds to
The comfort of this home.
This home contains every worth
while modern feature such as re-
cessed radiation, copper down.
spouts and cutters, copper water
pipes, insulated walls and roof,
cedar lined closets, etc., and yet
the price has been kept extremely
ow Notwithstanding the fact that
building material and other items
entering into the construction OF
homes is much higher since this
home was started.
Both homes will be open Sun
day and throughout the week,
both day and evening and may be
reached by driving out the Lee
Highway to Arlington Avenue and
burning left three blocks and fol-
owing signs.

Handy Electric Kitchens
Put in Miller Homes

And the time they do spend
there is not onerous. In the first
place, according to McCrea, the
electric range does away with
unnecessary heat, SCOT and dust.
The electric refrigerator preserves
food at little cost, and, he points
out, the automatic dishwasher
takes away one of the house
wife's most unpleasant duties.
Aside from the practicality Of
these General Electric all-electric
kitchens, they fit in with the
w. C. and A. N. Miller's idea
of making every Wesley Heights
home charming from top to bot
tom, as the units have been de-
signed for both beauty and duty.

One-Fifth of Pupils

One of every five school chill
dren in the United States is suf-

adequate housing and lack Of
proper medical care, a survey by
labor officials reveals.
The survey further reveals that
the nutritional condition of chill
dren is growing worse in many
communities as the result of con-
tinued unemployment and grow
ing want. In New York city
aolne, the percentage of under
nourished children jumped from
16 per cent in 1880 to 81 per
