Gold Star Mothers Sup- porting Latest
 Project

St Louis-(UP)--Establishme ofiEt Louis as the center of a five- pointed star of main highways, to the known as Gold Star memorial highways, is the latest project of Gold Star mothers in St Louis. A memormila building within the city for the preservation of patriotic records is also planned
 Gold Star mothers ilere have been working on the project for some time, and have obtained the backing of the board of aldermen. To complete this project, they are seeking the approval of PWA offi. cials.
 Creation of the star of roads would involve landscaping and planting of trees along four high ways in Missouri and one in Illi- nois. This has the approval of the city plan commission of St Louis and the Missouri state planning board and the state highway com mission. All the states have named roads to be included in the project, according to Mrs. Warren F. Dres- cher, national president of the Gold Star Mothers of the National so- ciety 1917 Worl war registrars.
 The board of aldermen gave the registrars permission to build a memorial building topped by an electrically-lighted gold star at

No meeting of the board Of warden and burgesses will be held this. week.. Warden John J. Sheri- dan said today. It had been ex- pected an adjourned meeting or the borough fathers would take place this week, but the warden's statement killed such expectations.
 He said the reason no session will be held is because various committees of the board are very busy completing their investiga- tions. They have not finished en- tirely with these, he stated, and believed it advisable to wait until they were completed rather than deprive them of time they might be using for working by holding a meeting. Several important things could not come up at such ses- sion because the committee in charge is not yet ready to report, he said.
 For example, he pointed out the street committee has examined several types of trucks in order to determine which would best suit the needs of the local street de- partment, but has not yet reached a definite conclusion. An appro- priation to pay for such a truck was made in the 1935-36 budget.
 Warden Sheridan would not say definitely whether the meeting would be helds some time next week or whether the board would not convene before the regular August session, scheduled for Tues- day, August 6.

Main Nearly Completed


 Work on the water main near the intersection of Bethany road and upper Felspar avenue is near ing completion. The Seymour Wa ter company has had charge of the work and has kept a big force of men busy the past two weeks, with a steam shovel used for excavat- ing. About 875 feet of main has been extended over Felspar avenue and one hydrant will be installed. This will be located in front of the residence of Mrs. Ellen Rob- erts on Bethany road where the water line ends.
 This will mean residents of Fel- spar avenue will get city water and additional protection in case of fires. It has been needed for some time.
 Start Upper Pier
 Work of starting the upper forms of the pier on the east side of the Naugatuck river in connec- tion with the new bridge, started today. Work on the base of the abutment was completed yesterday, all the cement having been poured.
 The new bridge will span the riv- CT, replacing the old covered wagon" bridge here. The pier on the west side was completed some time ago. It will not be very long before local residents will have a new structure with which they may view with pride. It is a PWA job.

building today Is the greatest in the
Nations history. To translate this
potential credit into active building
money Is the task Of Mr.. Grimm. In
summarizing the attractiveness Of in
sured mortgage loans, he pointed out
the following facts which the Treas
ury Is now taking steps to make clear
to the banks and lending institutions
Of the Nation. Briefly the points are {:
"Q These mortgages may be held
as a sound type of investment with
high interest return, backed with
the guarantee of the United States
Government. No other security is
available to financial institutions to-
day with comparable high return and
sound rating.
"(2) These mortgages may be dis
counted with the Federal Reserve and
are therefore liquid assets. This most
important feature is included in the
banking act Of 1885 and is an epochal
step forward in Transforming mort
gage loans from frozen to liquid assets.
"(3) These mortgages may be sold
at any time. Under recent ruling,
the Reconstruction Finance Corp. has
agreed to buy them. They may be
sold to approved purchasers, such as
large mortgage companies and banks.
They may be sold to insurance COM
panies which, according to Mr..
Grimm. are actively in the market
for such insured loans. He reported
conferences with presidents Of lead

ing insurance companies who stated
that they have not been able to get
sufficient supply Of insured mort
gage loans. One insurance company
sent representative to large num-
Der Of banks. seeking to buy such
loans and could not obtain an ade-
quate supply.
"All these considerations, and
others not yet revealed, will stimulate
the flow Of private capital into resi-.
Dental construction at increasingly
low rates. according to Grimm. AS
the value Of these mortgage loans
becomes more and more appreciated,
competition for them by financial in
stitutions will tend to drive the inter-
est lower.
Another important consideration
pointed out by the Treasury Depart
ment is the profitable return avail
able to banks and financial institu-
tions in financing construction from
the time the job is started until the
long-term mortgage loan is taken
after the house is completed. 1t was
pointed out that most profitable re-
volving fund can be set up for max
ing construction loans. The interest
rate of 51a per cent is attractive and.
in addition, the rapid turnover Of
money. estimated at from two to four
times a year on this type Of loan,
should permit a gross yield to the
lending institution Of from Ia to sls
per cent"

F. H. A. MEASURES
MORTGAGE RISKS
Fifty Factors Make Up Loan
"Yardstick," F. M. Bab-
cock Reveals.

Approximately so elements of mort
gage risk make up the national
yardstick" by which dwelling mort
cages are measured for insurance ELI
gibility under tho operation of the
national housing act, according to
Frederick M. Babcock, chief of the
Underwriting Section, Federal Hous-
ing Administration.
While justifying the 80 per cent
single mortgage insurable by the
Housing Administration. it permits
control Of lending policy and makes
dwelling mortgages comparable In the
mortgage lending market, he said.
The so factors Of mortgage risk
embrace elements in the rating of
the property, the neighborhood in
which the dwelling is located. the
relation OF property to neighborhood,
the borrower and the mortgage pat
tern, Mr.. Babcock pointed out.
ut is significant" he said, "that
this system has achieved its purpose
with a greater degree Of precision
than that which was anticipated by
those who designed it.
so successful has been its func-
tioning that surprisingly large
number of private lending institutions
have actually incorporated the system
in their own businesses. The risk
rating system has proven to be a
check on valuations because 1t is
self-evident that where properties and
neighborhoods are accorded high risk

atings higher valuations are also

ratings higher valuations are also
justified.
''In the first place, valuations are
relatively inaccurate. The denomi-
nator in the fraction representing the
loan value ratio is an estimate of the
uncertain quality.
For example, the Federal Housing
Administration is certain that an 80
per cent single mortgage represents
a less hazardous investment than q
go per cent first mortgage followed
by o high-rate junior mortgage. The
same borrower must meet the require
ments Of both mortgages and the
periodic costs for debt service are less
in connection with the 81 per cent
single mortgage than the combined
costs when two mortgages are intro
duced into the financial structure.
"Once a mortgage has been insured
by the Federal Housing Administra-
ton the capital investment is abso-
lutely secure"

of building statistics furnished by the
various housing divisions Of the Gov
ernment. 1t is on basis OF thorough
study of these data that his predlc-
tions are made.
The long-term building picture as
painted by Grimm Is extraordinarily
encouraging. He predicts the con-
str1lction of at least 100000 new
homes in the next 10 years, and there
is basis, according to one analysis
of the data, to indicate that the pro-
gram might 60 ahead at the rate OF
q million homes year. Such pro-
gram would mean a period OF housing
activity unequaled in this Nations his
tory. and one that would put every
building tradesman back to work and
tax the capacity Of every manutac-
turing and producing establishment to
the limit.

lllS Oll Nj l1lIlIo plCbASOAoAAo SSoNNS'
Every important factor in creating
o housing need has been analyzed
and taken into consideration by the
Treasury Department in computing
these data. A rapidly increasing mar
riage rate to make up for the sub
normal rate of the past few years
is an important factor. An enor-
NOUS housing deficiency as a result Of
the building depression is shown.
Other factors include obsolescence,
decrease in the doubling up Of families
common during the depression and
now being lessened by improved busi-
ness conditions. Rising rents. lower
taxes, increased occupancy and lib
eral supply of mortgage money are
other factors making for the pre-
dicted increase.
Vacancies in most cities, Peter
Grimm pointed out. are down 2 per
cent, and in many cities even lower.
The shortage is particularly great in
the moderate priced home field The
steadily rising rent curve will go up
almost perpendicularly in the near
future.
