AFL UNIONS
Suspend Auto Workers
Strike

Detroit, Mich.--At the request of
Senator Robert F. Wagner, chairman
of the National Labor Board at Wash
ngton, the thousands of Detroit auto
mobile workers belonging to unions
affiliated with the American Fedora
ton of Labor voted to suspend their
strike pending an investigation of the
situation by the board. The latest to
postpone strike plans were the work
ers employed by the Hudson Motor
Car Co.. who acted after an appeal
by James F. Dewey, National Labor
Board conciliator. Labor union Off
cials said that 10000 Hudson workers
were ready to answer the strike call.

For Anti-UniOn Concerns
Before Labor Board

Washington.-Senator Robert F.

Hartman Hosiery Mills, of Harri-
man, Tenn. A. Roth & Co., Chicago;
Patrick, Inc, Duluth, Mimi; S. Brew
ster & Son, Chicago, and two subsid-

tatives, or in Reorganization, or in
other concerted activities for the pur-
pose of collective bargaining, or in
other mutual aid or protection"
Section IA also declares "that no
employe and no one seeking employ
ment shall be required as condi-

pany union or to refrain from join
ing, organizing, or assisting a labor

In legend. the history OF the Oak
Lawn site traces back 10 an Indian
chief named MannacaSset, who select
ed IL for his camp because he could
view the surrounding country from its
heights. Among his captives of war
were a young mother and her daugh-
ter. When the mother refused TO be-
come his squaw he spared her life
but ordered her under penalty of
death never to leave the shadow Of
the great tree which later was named
Treaty Oak After the death Of Man
nacasset, the woman and her child
continued TO live there, and when the
Washington purchase had been made.
she was granted TIA acres Of land
surrounding the oak. The deed Of
the Morgan place, and the history Of
several blocks surrounding It, date
back to this grant known as Widows
Mite"
At one time the Oak Lawn site was
considered as a possible location for
the Capitol. but the Indian owner re-
fused to sell 1t.
Today the ground is destined to
become the location of a Masonic
Temple, and the hill is called Temple
Heights Pending construction Of the
building the old house still stands.
unoccupied except by caretakers living
in one wing. The great carved front
doors are caught in cobwebs. and in
side the crystal chandeliers hang in
the still air Occasionally the main
drawing room is used by the Order Of
the Eastern Star. but the carved and
inlaid BOOKCASES of the old library re-
main unopened, the thick inner doors
of the house seldom swing on their
hinges, and none trods the winding
stairway to the upper floors.

National Body Proposed.


The first step in the development
of the purposes of the act, 1t is recog-
nized. is the creation of a national
organization of some kind to help in
the campaign for better housing and
home ownership. The first objective
is the overhauling Of our present
real estate plant, and its recondition-
ing where that is necessary and
where II is economic.
There will be no effort on the part
OF the Federal administration TO sell
people on undertaking modernizing OF
other building that is either unwise
or unwanted. To this end the Govern
ment plans to leave the initiative OF
campaigns to the local communities
A number of leading realtors are
ready to offer plans for effective State
or local action.
Looking toward the long-term pur-
poses of the act, the association, in a
communication signed by Herbert u
Nelson, Chicago, executive secretary,
and addressed to Mr.. Moffett. has
pointed out that successful apphea-
ton of insurance to mortgage in
degree upon the creation of criteria
and standards by which mortgage
risks can be measured. Such stand
ards must be of a nature which would
be applicable. to conditions in every
community. To the end that such
standards be set up it urges early
and very practical development OF
the Federal fact-findirg activity
authorized under the act.
Measure of the potential number
of homes that people actually are
ready to build has been made through
q special questionnaire sent out by
the National Association of Real
Estate Boards In connection with its
semi-annual survey of the real estate
market, released today. Local member
boards of the association in l22 cities
made an estimate in answer to this
difiicult question: How many homes
would be built in your community II
adequate financing we're available?'
l6,903 Homes are FOreseen.
The l22 cities, whose population
(193o census) totals 8,o98,910, esti-
NAtaN AOrS0o nOAAd ON
built If these cities are typical, then
on the basis of an urban population
for the country as whole totaline
90 954,s23. there exists a total OF
1898 urban homes that people are
now ready to build, either for known
or unknown owners.
This total. it must be remembered
is not total of estimated need" but
q total of estimated actual potential
building enterprise, ready to be under
taken. The estimate is made by the
local groups unqueStionably most
familiar with the actual present home
market.
On the basis Of an average loan OF
$4,000, this should mean, the sssocia
tion estimates. an immediate ew
mortgage market for insurable home
mortgage loans totaling s575,50o, 900.

Fifty Per Cent Drop in Past Two

BALTIMORE, August IL (SpeciaD
A so per cent drop in the number
of applications for loans from the

two months was announced this week

constant at about 1900 a month, he

social and economic stakes involved
In the details of the new housing and
mortgage act are large indeed, and
that the need is for extremely pract-
cal administrative planning, rather
than for any immediate showing Of
''results."
The mutual mortgage insurance
plan Title II, held revolutionary by
many mortgage people when first
proposed. is designed to encourage the
long-term loan, the amortized loan,
the single loan, 10 eliminate the un-
standardized and costly second mort
gage. and to lower interest rates to
not more than per cent. All this
should liquefy mortgages and bring a
steady flow OF capital for real estate
financing. Every objective means
cutting the cost OF home ownership.
Mistakes in the setting up of machin-
cry for such ends would be costly in
deed and hard TO rectify.

Rubbed Finish Effect Easy.

A beautiful rubbed finish effect

varnish. This produces soft, dull
