ROBERTS AND PEAT, CON.
TRACTORS, TO GET $1,000
"a FOR OTHER WORK TO BE
CARRIED ON

Roberts and Peat, contractors,
who are now fulfilling a $4,000
contract for extensive repairs at
the lighthouse depot, have been
awarded an additional sum of
more than $1,000 for other work.
In the immense industrial build
ing, the concrete floor of which is
being placed at this time, a series
of concrete and fabricated wire
partitions are to be placed.
In these divisions will be placed
the lamp shop, the blacksmith
shop, machine shop and boat build
ing department. These activi-
ties are now housed in the east
ern end of the storeroom.
There are a number of changes
under way at this time, including
the construction of a concrete
wall and posts. with iron fence
panels. This wall fence will sep
arate the lighthouse department
from the navy department hold
ings.
The coal hoists, which have been
there for many years, are slowly
being removed. This work re-
quires the continued use of oxy-
acetylene torches as all bolts and
pins have rusted and corroded to
such an extent that the only man
ner in which the hoists can be dis
mantled is to cut them away.
Officers of the navy who for
merIy occupied Number / building
and had the adjoining property
under their supervision would fail
to recognize it so thorough has
the transformation been and so
complete the changes effected.

MALONE EXPLAINS
.HOME-OWNER LOAN
CORP. ACTIVITIES
ESSENTIAL PART OF PLAN IS
PROPERTY MUST ESSEN
TALLY BE HOME WITH
MORTGAGE DUE ]

For the information of the
many who have asked about the
Home Owners Loan Corporation
and the method of securing a
loan, The Citizen asked Mayor
VIM. Malone to outline the meth
cd to be pursued.
In the first place, said Mr.. Ma
lone, the property must be essen
TALLY a home with mortgage due
or accrued taxes.
With these conditions securing
a loan is very simple. Make ap-
plication for the loan to the cor
poration headquarters in Jackson
vile, setting forth how much is
needed and for what.
This matter is referred to APP
praisers who go, into every detail
Of the 5Preperty,s its sindebtedness,
scope, and zee. that "a survey IS
made CO.. Show that no encroach-
ments are existing in connection
With other property. ss.ee.as
s After the appraisers report is
made the matter is turned over to
DE attorneys. In Key West they
are VIM. H. Malone and w. Curry
Harris.
Examination of Title
The title is examined, an alb
stract of title prepared. If it is
shown there are no membranes
on the property other than the
mortgage demands for taxes, the
attorney makes favorable report
and the loan is made.
This is amortized over a long
period of time and is made easy
for the mortgagor by two plans
which are left to his choice.
For example: the loan is for
81. 500, at percent interest. The
mOrtgagOr can pay $12 monthly
interest and principal, until the
entire amount is paid. or he can
pay the interest at the rate of
1925 monthly until June, 1886,
and then pay. the BALANCE in
monthly payments of $14.25.
In the meantime the insurance
on the property. both stotm and
fire, must be kept up, taxes paid
promptly, and the property kept
in reasonable state of repair.
Under the circumstances, said
Mr.. Malooe, it is surprising that
so few people have taken adyant-
age of this liberal, offertthe gov
eminent is makingto all owners of
property who have been affected
by the depression. So far only
ten have applied and these have
all been granted loans.

GERMAN CREDIT
CONFERENCE LAGS
Both Sides Firm in Stand
on Increased Interest
Payments.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN. January 27.-A conference
in which agents Of Germany's foreign
creditors seek an increase in the
amount of interest payments allowed
to be transferred abroad proceeded
sluggishly today without any indica-
ton that either side would weaken in
its stand.
Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, president Of the
Reichsbank, did not attend the session
between the creditors agents and Ger
man financiers, but American repre-
sentatives said they were hopeful they
could persuade him to raise the 80 per
cent transfer quota now in effect.
Such a move has been recommended
by the foreign Office to better inter-
national relations. but hitherto Off
Gals of the Central Bank have asserted
Germanys income will not permit a
higher ratio.
The inability of the American dele
cation to tie up the transfer question
with proposals to increase German ex-
ports to the United States, as German
authorities had suggested. was consid-
cred a foregone conclusion since the
American delegation has no such power
to commit their Government.
The German government, mean
while. continued to collect money due
foreigners by German debtors through
a private institution for the conversion
of marks into foreign currencies.
In this operation the government as
sumes the liability for private debts IN
so far as a German debtor is given a
receipt in full as soon as he has paid
his debt into the conversion office.
The conversations will be continued
Monday.
