This is another of series of
articles on the Federal Housing
Administration. The Washing

in the United States giuing COM
plete information on this subject.
BY JOHN DEAN MILLIGAN
The purchase Of a new home,
under the mutual mortgage
plan" to be announced shortly by
the Federal Housing Administra-
ton, can mean either a home
that is intended to be constructed
or one that was built years ago.
In the case Of a house erected
long before the mortgage is to
be obtained, Albert L. Deane, dep
uty Federal Housing AdminiStra-
tor, has stated as follows:
eff a house is already con-
Structed and the seller is will
ing to accept in part payment
o mortgage eligible under the
provisions of the housing act,
then in that sense the placing
of such q mortgage could be
used to finance the purchase Of
q home"
In the case Of a home owner
who wishes to build new house,
the procedure to be followed will
not differ greatly from that now
in force in mortgage handling.

of children and grown-ups with
their clever and realistic acting,

'one-act play. Then there will be
clowns and trained animals and
other amusing characters which
will do their bit of entertaining
when the proper strings are pull
ed.
The pretty marionette stage
will be set up on the platform,
complete with curtains, footlights,
and all stage properties in scale
with the minute size of the beau
tifully designed figures. Care
fully selected music will be used,
and there will be vocal as we'll as
instrumental music as an impor-
