LOAN SUGGESTIONS
LIST PREPARED
Housing Administration May
Now Insure Moderiniza-
ton Credit.

A simplified list of suggestions on
how to obtain loans under the amend
ed modernization credit plan has been
compiled by the Federal Housing
Administration.
BY an amendment to the national
housing act. the Housing Administra-
tion may now insure modernization
credit advanced in amounts UP to
$4,000 for the purpose of moderniza-
tion or the installation of new equip
ment or machinery in industrial. COM
mercial and ommercial-residentia
buildings. Details have been simpli-
fed to great extent. The procedure
suggested to the individual by the
Housing Administration is as follows:
Decide what is needed for modern
Eing building and equipment
Consult equipment manufacturers
and dealers and building contractor
as to the cost of the modernization
work planned.
Qualified Institutions.
Go to bank or other local financial
institution that displays the house in
the circle" sign. which means it has
qualified for Federal Housing Admin
istration credit insurance.
Make application to the lending
Institution for credit in the usual way.
The carrying charges on credit in
sured by the Federal Housing Admin
tstration are at the lowest rates. The
maximum must not exceed the
equivalent of SIS discount per SlOO
face amount of one-year note repay
able in monthly installments.
The borrower may have up to five
years to pay
No down payment is required.
Loans are made on the usual basis
Of credit rating, but the Federal HouS-
ing Administration considers collateral
appropriate under the $4,000 extern
sion, though not obligatory by regula-
ton. Decision in each case rests,
however, with the lending institution
and not with Federal Housing Admin
1Stration.
The borrower may drive his own
bargain with the lending institution
as TO the rate Of interest and period
OF repayment, but in no case may they
exceed the limits stated above.
The bargain the borrower drives de-
pends on how good his financial state
nlent and borrowing character" are
and how good a bargainer he is.
Reliability Important.
When the borrower bears a good
reputation for reliability and capa-
bility, the lending institution may ex-
tend credit in amounts up to S5o,
This credit may be insured by the
lending institution with moderniza-
ton credit insurance by the Federal
Housing Administration for 20 per
cent of their total Considering that
q unit Of 500, ,000, 900 thus insured has
developed but .o6 per cent loss up to

WALLS HARMON|zE
W|THFURN|TURE
Special Treatment Can Be
Used for All Types
of Woods.
BY LYNN HARDESTY.

NEW YORK, August 10-Walls are
now being smartly styled to set Of the
furniture woods in vogue. Whether
furniture is constructed Of warm tones
of maple or fruit wood-or the more
exotic contrasts Of light and dark
modern woods, such as macassar ebony
and white mahogany-there is wall
treatment which is exactly right for it.
With furniture in the popular
French directoire, empire and English
regency styles, so often made Of fruit
wood and touched with black and gold,
yellow walls are excellent, as well as
light blue and white. All these colors,
seen recently in New York apartments,
bring out the light brown tones of the
wood and contrast with the black
accents.
To carry out the classical design of
this furniture, stenciled border in
a Greek key" or wall of Troy" de-
sign may be painted on the wall just
below the picture molding and, If
desired. around the doorway and
window openings as well. This should
be done in a color harmonizing with
that of the walls-deep burnt orange
on yellow or tan; blue gray on blue
Or white wall. If this hue is repeated in
the upholstery of the chairs or in the
rugs or draperies, the decorative har-
mony is heightened.
In a well-lighted room, a fashion
able setting for empire furniture is
created by chocolate brown or rich
terra Gotta walls. For directoire or
regency furniture, black and white
wall effects are very good. These may
be worked out, as was done not long
ago by a prominent Madison avenue
decorator, by painting the walls white
with black Dashboard and the floor
black with large white star In the
center.

Repainting Widely Demanded.

Repainting iron railings, foot scrap
ers. steel window easements and other
architectural hardware is not difficult.
All old loose, scaly paint should first
be scraped or wire brushed and the
surface then coated with red lead paint.
After this has been allowed to dry
thoroughly for week or 10 days, cover
1t with two thin coats of good house
paint.

The following quotation from this

"In an opinion dated August 30, our
General advised us that we
had the right to make refunds to
Maryland for hire operators who were
obliged to obtain registration and per-
mits during the period between July l

agreement was not in effect. Mary
land operators who purchased either
permits or registration plates for the
entire year beginning July 1, 1885,
will be refunded ga of the amount
paid less $1.O0, the nominal refund
fee."
Commissioner Rudy advises refund

Maryland or from the Transportation
Division of the State Roads Commits
sion of West Virginia at Charleston.

cuted and sworn to; in the space mark

MARVA THEATRE
PRESENTS ROGERS
FOUR NIGHTS
sSteambOat Around The Bend"
Will Appear First Four
Days Of Next Week

The battle OF the century is on at
the Marva Theatre where Fox Films
Steamboat Round the Bend" presents
Will Rogers and Irwin S. Cobb in a
hilarious, high-comedy rivalry that is
tops for the seasons film offerings.
Steamboat Round the Bend" is
warm in sentiment, rich in characteri-
cations, replete with thrills and re-
veals Rogers in a new and more human
light-in what is probably the great
est role of his career.
AS captain Of the "Claremore
Queen" a ramshackle old tub, Rogers
is involved in the romance of Anne
Shirley and John Mcclure. Their
happiness is threatened when Mcclure
kills man in the girls defence, gives
himself up on Rogers advice and is
condemned.
Of course, the girl and Will Rogers
blame each other for the boys plight,
but their desire to help him draws
them together in a rich friendship.
While they strive to earn enough
money to pay for his appeal, Rogers
is indulging in his old rivalry with
crusty Irwin S. Cobb, captain OF the
shiny 1.-THE Pride of Paducah."
The two dramatic currents blend
when Rogers steams down to New
Orleans to save Mcclure and is in
volved in the big steamboat race. The
climax, packed with suspense and ex-
plosive comedy, brings the film to a
happy conclusion.
In the leading role, Rogers tops the
best of his previous performances.
Anne Shirley is unusually effective in
the romantic lead and rotund, jovial
Irwin Cobb lives up to his reputation
as one of the funniest men in Amer
lea.
Steamboat Round the Bend" owes
much of it's effectiveness and color to
the work of scenarists Dudley Nichols
and Lamar Trotti and to Director
John Ford, all of whom worked with
Rogers in "Judge Priest" and who sur
pass their earlier fine performance
with Steamboat Round the Bend"
