nounced today by Thomas P. Lit
tlepage, general chairman of the

The improvements are financed
through the "modernization" loans
sponsored by the Federal Housing
Administration. These loans, which
must range between 500 and
$4,000 and be repaid in monthly
inStallments over a period of from
one to five years, are already be-
ing made available by more than
20 banks and building and loan
associations in the District.
Only permanent improvements,
however, can be handled through
the "modernization" loans. Re
pairs and additions can be made
to almost any type Of building,
and garages, silos and barns can
be erected on improved property.
But movable equipment, like ra-
dos and furniture, are not per-
