Secretary of Labor Frances
Perkins today invaded the House
Appropriations Committee hear
ing with a vehement protest
against a proposal to curtail
funds for setting up a nation
wide employment service.
The subcommittee in charge Of
the Labor Department bill, she
said, planned to cut the four
million budget recommendation
'for 1885 to about two million.
Although the committees SeS-
Sions are held behind closed
doors, Miss Perkins expressed
her opinion as she emerged from
the hearing, saying:
'The Wagner Peyer bin

In setting up State employ.
ment services contemplated ex-
penditure Of $1,5OO,OOO the
first year and four million the
second to encourage the States.
"The committee wants to re-
duce the amount to about two
million on the assumption that
we want to spend too much
money. I felt very badly when
I learned Of it,"
Representative Oliver D.) Of
Alabama, chairman Of the sub
committee, was represented by
Miss Perkins as believing that
the Federal Government should
let the States alone to establish
their own services

with the immense problem presented
by $21, 900, 900 900 worth of outstand-

The stimulation of loans to owners

S16,eoe Dwelling Limit.
This measure gives aid primarily to
dwellings for persons in moderate
means. No mortgage may be insured
unless 1t covers Q home for not more
than four families that Is used in
part for residential purposes, or a low
cost housing project regulated by law
or by the administrator as to rents,
charges, capital structure and returns.
No insured mortgage on small
dwelling shall exceed $4,000, but
mortgage as great as $4,000, 900 may
be insured to promote huge low-cost
housing projects The insurance will
be at rates ranging between one-half
and per cent of the face value of
the mortgage. as determined by the
administrator. and 1t shall be paid to
him by the mortgage, who shall COL
lect 1t from the mortgagor along with
interest. amortization and other
charges. AS in all mutual insurance
however, these rates are substan-
TALLY In excess OF any amount needed
to cover probable losses The law
therefore provides that any part Of
the funds thus accumulated. which
are not needed to cover actual losses,
will be turned back to the home own
ers so that they will find their 90
year mortgages paid off in II or ID
years under normal conditions.
II 1t should become necessary for a
mortgage to foreclose upon insured
property, he may, under the law, con-
vey 1t to the administrator and re-
ceive in return a bond equal to the
face value Of the mortgage at the
time of conveyance, bearing 3 per cent
interest, maturing three years after
the mortgage would have matured, and
guaranteed as to principal and in

ment. But 1t must be emphasized that
the foreclosing mortgage has the
election to forego the insurance bene-
fits and retain the property II he be-
lieves 1t a good business venture. In
such cases, of course. the insurance
premiums that have been paid will
be credited to the account of the
mortgagor. This provision illustrates
admirably the spirit OF the bill, which
is to allow private individuals to carry
on their transactions undisturbed. as
we would wish to be the case when
revival Is fully accomplished. The only
function Of the Government Is to fur
nish a medium under which both
sides may be guaranteed against dis
