FEDERAL SAVING LOAN INSURANCE
 PLAN SUCCEEDS
Least Publicized of All Roosevelt PrOgrams2-It
 Has Made Good

Washington, Dec 27-(UP)- The FSLIC, newest of the new deal's alphabetical agencies, has became one of President Roose- velt's most important-and least publicized---experimsIts
 It is the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation. whose chairman, John H. Fahey, an- nounced today has insured accounts in more than 400 federal savings and loan associations, themselves a new development of the new deal.
 During the last year and Q half, Fahey said, more than COG such associations, with resources of about $140,000,00O have been char tered in 40 states. Applications of some 200 more old time line saw ings and loan societies to become federal institutions are pending.
 If their applications are granted. the total resources of the group will pass $500, 1000, 900. Officials said the plan was growing like Q snow ball." that only a dent in the sav- ings and loan so far has been made, and that they expected the expansion program to make tine federal institutions domiant in the mutual home financing business.
 Most important factor in the rapid growth of the federal sav- ings and loan association has been the FSLIC.
 Patterned in part after the Fed eral Deposit Insurance Corporation, which .insures the majority of the nations ban accounts. FSLIC in- sures all federal savings and loan up to $5000.

Federal Check Tax Expires Next Week
Levy, Termed Nuisance" By Local Banker, Ends
 Tuesday--Added Expense to Business Houses

MT Reed declared that the tax was a nuisance" since it's birth. He expressed the hope that the new congress would not pass new regulation prolonging the tax on checks. 'The tax has been a source of trouble to both banking institutions and the people in gen. eral in the city. It necessitated bookkeeping on both ends to keep track of the tax set on all checks issued. The expense to banks and business houses was considerable, as far as bookkeeping is concerned, and the trouble to private individ- uals was great" said MT Reed. / According to information from Washington, D. C., congress will not renew the tax on cheeks, but will seek to make up the revenue from other sources. The tax pro- duced $41,383,19S during the last fiscal year. More than a score of special taxes expire or change six months hence, also, unless they arerenenacted, such as the levies on lubricating oil, brewers wort and grape concentrate, matches, gasoline, Electrical energy, toilet preparations, fur articles, jewelry, radios and photographs, mechan- ical refrigerators, sporting goods, firearms and shells, chewing gum, eleghone and telegraph cable, transportation of oil by pipe line and import excises on coal. copper, lumber, malt and petroleum.
 On July 31st, next, federal taxes will expire on tires and inner tubes, automobile trucks, automobiles and motorcycles and automobile parts and accessories.
 Mos of these taxes are expected to be revived but the general belief and hope is that the special check tax will be left out entirely from the coming federal budget.
