it will agree to make you what is
called a character loan"
You will not be asked to mortgage
your property or put up any collateral
as security. except where State laws
require the particular institution to
loan only on mortgage. Your char
acter will be your security.
Financing institutions will agree to
make payment Of the loan when the
work is completed or during the
progress of the work. either to you
or to your contractor on your order.
1t will accept your personal note in
either case.
1t will charge you a small service
fee and reasonable interest or will
discount your note sufficient to cover
these items.
Plan for Repayment.
You will be allowed to repay the
loan in small monthly installments
running over reasonable and con-
venient period Of time not over three
years.
Loans of this nature should be made
only on buildings that are structurally
sound. 1t should be understood that
loans made on dilapidated structures,
on those poorly located. or where
values are declining, are not justified
economically.
The purpose of this program Is to
encourage the improvement Of real
estate along sound, constructive lines
and only in such cases where the
amount borrowed and invested in bet
ter housing is thoroughly justified in
the light of good judgment and where
Improvements are reflected in in
creased value or use of the property.

Of the boarded money is in bills of
large denominations. Most of it I'M
questionably is in safety boxes. The
poor are spending and putting their

The total amount of boarding today

Former Mayor Harry A. Mackey,
campaign manager for Ware in the
latters successful battle for election
to the United States Senate bat
tie which went for naught when he
was refused a seat--said:
While Mr.. Ware, like all OF us
who have been engaged In public
affairs. was the subject of political
criticism. still. all that Is forgotten
in death, and there only remains a
memory Of the very fine qualities that
he possessed"
Edwin r. Cox, president OF City
Council, who was elected city Re
publican committee chairman in the
reent overthrow Of Wares leadership,
said he was greatly shocked.
Real Loss to Party.
THE death Of Mr.. Ware, with whom
was acquainted for more than IS
years, is a real loss to the Republican
party" he went on. The Republican
party in the city, State and Nation
has lost one of its most earnest and
loyal champions"
Sheriff Richard Weglein, the last
person to confer politically with Ware,
said: bill Vare's last thought was the
success of the Republican organiza-
tion. My last political conference
with him was on July ~. He said,
The Republican organization is my
life. 1t has been my life for 40 years.
I can't give 1t up now

He said the council had directed
him TO call upon Gen. Hugh S, john
son. N. r. A. administrator, to ere

said labor was also demanding that
an alleged agreement be carried out
under which Mai George l.. Berry,
divisional administrator. was to be
given fun authority to settle the con-
troyersy, and that the Blue Eagle be
removed until the Hartman COM

Considered Test Case.
I'VE consider this a test case of

Closing OF the Hartman mills

An idea Of how staggering that sum
is may be obtained from the fact that
1t is twice as much money as there is.
You may suspect offhand that,
therefore, it is a mistake, but it is
really a most conservative estimate.
The amount Of money in circulation
has little to do With lending capacity.
The same money is loaned over and
over again by banks. Loaned money
is spent and redeposited in some bank
by the fellow who ultimately gets it.
1t really does not leave the banks. 1t
only goes to work there.
Bank Loans Small.
The proof Of the tlgure lies In the
fact that bank loans now amount to
$13 .0oo, 900 900. or half of what they
amounted to before the depression
(the average for the pre-depression
period was around S26,000,000, ,000).
From the comparative conditions of
banks today, the best experts deduce
broadly that at least 10000, 900 900
more could be loaned II the public
wanted the money and the banks
wanted to lend it.
There is only one explanation for
this situation. Either the banks
haze insufficient confidence TO lend
freely or the business public has
insufficient confidence to iDdnt to
borro,O freely. That may sound
like tioo explanations, but it IS
really only one.
Banks will lend only when they be-
lieve loans are good. Business men
will seek to expand their loans only
when they see good profits coming
from getting into debt. 1t boils down
to the same essential underlying cause.
Some people win say the banks are
at fault. 1t may be popular to take
that view. but it is not good sense.
Most bankers like that good old or
per cent interest coming in when
they can get it. They cannot make
money out of stagnant money.
