'Money is easier, there Is q
shortage Of housing, costs are COM
ing down, and the fear OF panic
Is over. People want the con-
venience and freedom from labor
which a modern home assures
them. ,
"When we started the Federal
Housing Administration you could
not blow a mortgage paper out OF

mite. Now the banks are compet-
ing with one another for the
business"
Mcdonald said interest rates

TenneSSeeanS Plan
To Use Ballot
Against Judge

Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. 12-(By O.
3. Taylor for ANP)-Since protests
in letter form have failed to stop
Judge Robert p. Williams from using
the words "nigger' and "'darky, in
referring to Negroes who come be-
fore him for trial, local Negro citi-
zens are planning to put a stop to
the practice by defeating the jurist
at the forthcoming election, accord
ing to a report circulated here.
Judge Williams, who is known for
his fairness in dealing with Negroes,
according to the report has frequent
~ used the opprobrious terms in his
courtroom and the San Juan Civic
Club, composed Of some of the most
influential citizens Of color, has
written him several letters asking
that he to use the words "nig-
ger" and "darky". The judge has ig-
nored these letters and has continued
to use the terms. Other candidates
for the bench have been questioned
as to their attitude on the question
and each has declared himself as OPP
posed to such terms and a movement
will be launched to defeat Judge VIII
liams, unless he stops using the
words to which the Negro citizens
have objected.
The San Juan Civic Club is head
ed by G. w McDade, president, with
DR.. II. w. Green, chairman Of the
executive committee and @. A. Cow
an, secretary.

Sultan Lays
DOwn Law to
Police Heads

Members Of the Police Depart
ment's high command were raked
over the Goals by the District
Commissioners today.
Engineering Commissioner Dan
I Sultan called on each precinct
captain to take over full respon-
Sibility for vice and crime in his
section. He pointed out that
there is no necessity for interfer-
ence by Federal agents in main
tanning law and order. He added:
eff we find that q precinct
commander is not in full con.
troll. of the crime situation in his
district, he will be called on the
carpet by the Commissioners,
and if ne cannot give a salts
factory explanation, he will be
relieved of his command"
FAVORS ARMY SYSTEM
Commissioner Sultan said he
was in favor of using the Army
system in the administration of
the Police Department. Captains,
he pointed out, must take the re-
sponsibility Of commanding their
precincts.
The Engineering Commissioner
declared that if Federal agents
discover a liquor still or a vice den
in operation in a local precinct,
the captain will be called to &C
count as to why his men had not
discovered the illegal activity and
raided the premises before the
Federal men had taken the raid
ing steps.
The entire squad of captains
and inspectors we're present when
Commissioner Sultan called on
them to tighten up on criminal
elements here.
Held as Pep" Meeting
The meeting was called to pep"
up the police. Commissioner
Sultan, a regular Army officer,
felt, however, that Commissioner
HAGEN was being too gentle in his
remarks and took the occasion to
add his words of warning.
With the exception Of Inspector
Albert J. Headley, who Is on sick
leave due to poison ivy infection,
all Of the principals of the present
police high command controversy
attended the meeting in the office
Of Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen.
However, it was slid. there was
no discussion of reports Of a shake
up in the upper crust of the police
department ranks.
In addition to considering the
general crime situation here, the
Commissioners instructed tn e
police commanders to apply special
vigilance to traffic control. The
men were told to give their com.
plete cooperation to the traffic
safety drive now in progress.

FRAZ|ER-LEMKE
COURT RULING
DUE TODAY
Supreme Tribunal Unlikely,
However, to Decide on
Schechter MIRA Case
International News Service


A decision on constitutionalitv
of the Frazier-Lemke farm mora.
forum law was generally expected
today as the Supreme Court re.
assembled to hand down decisions.
While definite assurance was
lacking, It was believed that the
court had had the case under ad.
visement long enough to enable
it to render a decision.
The high tribunal also had the
Schechter MIRA case before it,
but a decision on its constitution.
atty is considered unlikely for at
least two weeks.
With % opinions to render to
clean up its slate before the an.
ticipated summer adjournment,
the court was expected to decide
at least a half-dozen cases today.
The Frazier-Lemke case, along
with the Schechter case, consti.
tute the only two New Deal" Con-
gressional acts under fire before
the court.
The measure, of vital import
ance to farmers and mortgage
lenders, permits a five-year mora.
forum on farm debts, subject to
Federal Court bankruptcy action.
Farmers may retain possession of
farms on payment of reasonable
rental, and buy them back at a
new appraisal.

HITLER ANXIOUS
OVER POLAND s .
FUTUREPOL|CY Z.
Moves Swiftly in Effort to
Insure Friendship of
New Regime
BY PIERRE J. HUSS
international News Service

BERLIN, May 13.-Germany
cast anxious eyes today toward
the East where a powerful figure,
allied in mind with Chancellor
Adolf Hitler against Communism,
the proposed eastern Locarno and
the new Franco-Soviet alliance,
was whisked from the scene at
q moment when he shared the
key to Europe'S fate.
International News Service
learned from highest sources that
Germany will make every effort
to obtain reinsurance from Poland
that her political policy will con-
tinue to run in the channel laid
by the late Marshal Pilsudski.
Moves Swiftly
Acutely conscious of the situa-
ton, Hitler moved swiftly after
dispatching a telegram Of con-
dolence to warsaw, tentatively
ordering Premier Hermann Will
helm Goering and two Reichswehr
generals to participate in the
funeral to offset the expected
presence Of Foreign Minister Laval
of France.
He also ordered German build
ing flags at half.staff and dis
patched Secretary of State Meiss-
ner to the Polish legation to in
scribe the Fuehrer's name first in
the legations coincidence book.
Most significant Of all was Hit
ler's decision to attend Pilsudski
memorial services on the day Of
the funeral at Hedwig Cathedral.
q Catholic edifice. It will be Hit
ler's first official visit to any
Catholic church.
Hope Expressed
A foreign office spokesman ex'
pressed hope Poland would con-
tinue Pilsudski's policies and CO.
operation with Germany. He
said:
"Since Poland is wedged be.
tween the powerful Soviet and
stronger Germany, she hasn't
much choice beyond watching
out she will not be swallowed
by Russia or gnawed by Ger.
many. We feel sure Poland
will stick to her present policy"
Alfred Rosenberg, cultural
leader and a close confidante OF
Hitler, expressed the same hopes.
He said:
1--WE have not forgotten that
PiIsudSki's cooperation and far.
sightednesS made peaceful re-
latiOnS with Germany possible
despite the eternal hates foster
ed by the Versailles treaty.
PiIsudSki was one of the few in
fluential statesmen outside Ger
many who understood our East
ern policy"
