REPAIR SUMMER
HOMES In FALL
FEDERAL HOUSING ADNTNISTRA.
TTON SAYS NOW rs TIME TO
FIX UP HOMES

MOntanans planning on deserving
their summer homes for the winter
win do well TO make certain that the
structures are In good repair to resist
the heavy SHOWS and tfaWs which win
occur before next spring, advises the
Federal Housing administration at
Helena.
Roofs, porches, steps. metal flash
ings and drain pipes are some OF the
items which are so often neglected I'M
til the repairing of them becomes 8
major job and it was pointed out fur
Their that q careful checking Of all these
items would probably reveal a number
which should be tended 10 Immediately
FOR example," the federal housing
says, while wishing to wait until spring
TO apply a fresh coat Of paint so that
1t will be bright for the summer, it is
much wiser to apply 1t now. Exterior
paint Is essentially protective coat
ing, and during the next seven or eight
months cottage needs protection more
than during the summer months.
1t was explained that it was the
aim Of the housing administration to be
o. assistance IN financing these re-
pairs by providing the modernization
credit plan whereby people Of Montana
can avail themselves Of this type Of
credit Although no government money
is loaned under this plan, 1t has made
It possible to borrow for modernfZa-
ton purposes from banks and other
lending institutions by offer
ing credit at low interest rate.
The only requirement necessary to Sc
cure q loan of this type is that the pros
pective borrower must possess a good
credit record in his community and
have sufficient income to satisfy the
lending institution that his monthly
payments on the loan win not require
TOO large a part Of his monthly in
come.

and educational capacity by conduct
ing research work into the subject.
II also recommends an experimental
program on the Potomac River and
its headwaters in the vicinity of Wash
ington to show the States what can
be done in preventing pollution or in
controlling or eliminating it in streams
already polluted. Active coordination
and stimulation of local measures OF
control was also recommended, and
the committee set up an outline of
specific steps which any State can
adopt under its constitutional police
power to attempt to control pollution
on its own waters.
A significant statement in the re-
port of the National Resources Com
mittee is this: There is no appreci-
able demand indicated by State
agencies for an extension of Federal
control over water pollution"
l understand that this statement
was based largely upon qucstionnaires
sent out to the various State agen-
cieS, and it no doubt reflects what
those agencies honestly believe is the
view of the people in their States.
However, there has been such utter
apathy on the part of many persons,
/ including State enforcement officials
themselves, as a result of years of un-
/ successful attempts to control pollu-
tion at home, and particularly on the
large interstate waterways, that
wonder whether the public has ac-
tually been interested enough to ex-
press itself through its State agen-
| cieS
Public Discouraged.
Many persons who originally we're

publication, having noted futile at
tempts to correct the situation. no
longer go to the trouble even to COM
/ plain about pollution to their State
| agencies, thus making it difficult for
these agencies to judge exactly what
the public wants.
| Many of the militant individuals in
! the States who have had the courage
| to continue the fight have joined
State and national organizations hav-
| ing stream publication as one of its
| chief objectives. 1t is these organiza-

tion for damages or the abatement
thereof which he or they may now
have under the present law of the
States concerned. Other provisions
safeguarding the States and individ
uals in their existing rights would
also be included, the main purpose of
the whole plan being vigorous Fed
eral action to supplement and stimu-
late State action, and not to inter-
fere in any way with the States in
their own efforts.
Amendments would also be sub
mitted to existing laws to strengthen
enforcement of the deposits of refuse
act and the oil pollution act, by which
the Federal Government already has
limited powers of control over pollu-
ton on interstate waters.
I have been requested to inaugu-
rate the Federal plan of these or
ganizationS. Thus far no definite
legislation has been introduced in
Congress, although there are indica-
tions that as result of the report of
the National Resources Committee
the administration may now be draft
ing such legislation for the coming
session.
Would Provide Employment.
Such program of stream purifica-
ton at this time would comply with
the Presidents policy of providing un-
employment relief by worthwhile
public works. Government loans and
financial assistance would, under the
plan, stimulate construction of ade-
quate sewage disposal plants and in
dustrial trade waste treatment
plants, and would give employment
TO many now out of work.
But this is not the only benefit, nor
the greatest Following it would
come the inestimable benefits OF
health protection. the return of mil
lions Of dollars worth of food fish to
our principal streams, the restoration
of the natural ice industry along
some waters, and the restoration OF
recreational and industrial use OF
waterways that are now an offense
to the sight, a stencil to the nostrils
and an excessive burden to naviga-
ton. Added to this would be the
tremendous savings to the great cities
of the Nation that must now or later
spend hundreds Of millions for new
sources Of water supply unless the
pollution of their present sources is
abated and the purity thereof for
ever protected.
The time has come when the pub
lie should express itself effectively
upon this subject. If you believe in
the Federal plan, notify your State
agencies or your Representatives or
Senators in Congress or the President
or his National Resources Board. As
DR.. Theobold Smith, eminent au-
thority on public health, said not so
long ago:

$7,444, 667 at per cent to the Illinois
Central System, which sought the
money to help meet an obligation due
next July l.
If the loan goes through the rail-

because $17,55s,333 previously was
borrowed.
