SMALL HOMES
To BE AIDED
Roosevelt To Ask Two Billion
Bond Issue For T;efinancing
OF Mortgages.

WASHINGTON, April 8. (UP)-A
$4,000, 100000 bond issue will be
asked for the refinancing of mort
cages on small homes when Pres
ident Roosevelt transmits legisla-
ton to congress Monday, it was
learned today.
President Roosevelt discussed his
small home relief plan today with
Senator Wagner (Dem0 New York.
1t is understood that the legisla-
ton will follow closely along the
lines of that applying to farm
mortgage refinancing.
One of the difficulties that will
be ironed out between now and
Monday, it is expected, will be
that in relation to the amount of
interest in the refunding process.
Because of the greatest borrowing
on the part of home owners, it was
not yet agreed as to whether the
rate of interest would be four or
four and a half per cent. The
farm mortgage refunding plan calls
for four per cent.
Senator Wagner explained that
although the total amount of mort
cages on small homes amounts to
approximately $4,000, 100000 he was
of the belief that $2,000,000,00 bond
issue would be sufficient to carry
out the proposal of the Roosevelt
plan.
He added, of course, that this
was based on the supposition that
no new loans would be made in
the meantime.
Under the plan, administration
of the relief would be in the hands
of a corporation created for that
purpose, probably with members of
the home loan bank board as di-
rectorS.
The plan calls for the exchange
of the present mortgages for the
bonds of the corporation and also
for a scaling down of the mortgage
principal, it was said.

Hard Liquor Hit
A notable effect of the first SO
hours of legal beer was the dimin-
ishing of trade in speakeasies. Hard
liquor at bootleggers' prices went
begging for buyers.
New York police reported only six
persons treated for alcoholism yes
terday as compared with a daily
average of 10. None had been
drinking beer. DR.. George F.. SAT-
ford, Illinois Anti-Saloon league
superintendent, said he saw more
indications of drunkenness than at
any time since the last day before
prohibition.
Joseph Dublin, editor of Brewery
Age, estimated that 125 1000 barrels
of beer were consumed in the ma
ton yesterday.
The first labor trouble in the re-
vived industry occurred at Newark,
N. j., when eight union machinists
walked out demanding adjustment
of wages.

cago turned to weekend of beer
festivity today while gladdened

the armistice in 1918.
Beer consumption in Chicago
during the first 36 hours of its le-
galization surpassed expectations
even of brewers themselves. Res
taurants and cafes were notified
last night that their supplies may
be curtailed after tomorrow.
Breweries sent out emergency
calls for additional workers and
truck drivers. Triple shifts were ad-
ded in some of Chicago's seven
breweries. Supplies brought in from
Milwaukee and st. Louis were ex-
hausted almost upon arrival.

Beer barons, it was learned, have

Major brewers in New York said
they would take every possible pre-
