The Juvenile Delinquency Com
mittee reported that a central Orga

nate the scattered work done in
the field of delinquency by some
Few Negro groups, and that some
more capable persons must be
selected as probation officers by
the Judges of that court. Only one
of fifteen probation officers in the
court is colored despite the fact

"They should result in getting a
job or a chance to express our
selves creatively."
Not since the emancipation
have we needed to get together
more than at the present time. We
are facing a National crisis. When
we don't like the leadership or
the way things are done by
leader we devitalize and distrust
those who are fighting on the fir
ing line for us. We must get to-
gether with our leaders"
Mrs. Heslip cited the great OPP
portunities for young peoule in
the slum clearance project. She
said: There are also many oppor-
tunities to make ourselves felt in
programs for peace and in home
making. Young people should be
made to understand beauty in the
home. Through the Consumers
League one can learn of the rights
of women and children. Most i'm
portant of all we should attend the
National Negro Congress in Chi
cago on February IA and hear
what our leaders have to say"
In closing Mrs. Heslip urged all
members OF the Lucy Thurman

Raleigh.-The State Highway
patrol reported ia persons were
killed during October ON North
Carolina highways, compared with
131 in the same month one year
ago.
The total brought the number
of highway fatalities during the
l2-month period ending November
l to 1,010, compared to 1920 for
the period ending November 1,
1885, a 10 per cent decrease. A. ]
Maxwell, commissioner of revenue,
issued a statement attributing the
decrease to the drivers license act,
which went into effect November
1, 1885, and increase in the person
mel of the highway patrol.
He pointed out hat more auto
mobiles were on the roads during
the past year than at any other
time in the States history.

While the air of Washington is
full of predictions and rumors as
to the policies of the second adj
ministration of President Roose-
welt, a great deal of this kind OF
talk is in the nature of trial bal
looms. Suggestions are made that
the President is considering this,
that or the other line of action, but
that does not by any means prove
that the particular policy has been
decided upon. The public reaction
to such tentative suggestions is ex-
pected to be more influential now
than it has been in the past. So
far there is no program sufficiently
crystalllzed to warrant the predic-
ton that it will even be presented
to Congress.
That does not mean that there
are not numerous persons in high
positions in the Administration
who have pet plans which they
will try to get Congressional sane
ton for; it is simply that the Pre-
sident is believed to have ~refrained
from committing himself to any Of
these individual plans.

WINANT ON JOB AGAIN

There is qualification in Wash
ington that John G. Winant, for
mer Republican Governor Of New
Hampshire, who was the first
chairman of the Social Security
Board, has been recalled to that
post. Gov. Winant resigned last
Summer in order to take the stump
for President Roosevelt to reply to
the attacks being made upon the
Social Security Act.
Washington regards Governor
Winant as a conscientious and able
administrator and probably the
best Informed man in America on
social security laws of other coun-
tries and the way they operate. 1t
is regarded here as reasonably GER
tain that some Improvements in
the Social Security Act will have
to be made, and Governor Win
ants leadership and counsel will be
needed.
That staunch friend and sup
porter of President Roosevelt,
Frank c. Walker, who was one of
the first Roosevelt-for- President
men away back in 1880, is being
talked about here as the probable
successor to Postmaster General
Farley. The belief grows that Mr..
Farley will resign on or before in
auguration day, January 20, and
Mr.. Walker is regarded as the logi-
cal choice.
Walker has demonstrated his ex-
ecutive capacity and organizing
ability in setting up and starting
off numerous federal agencies the
administration of which was later
turned over to others. The Presi-
dent has a high regard for MI.
Walker and if he is not made Post
master General the probability is
that he will be placed in some
equally important post.

Demand
In This Section
Total Increase in State.
..
Of $685. 800 During
Year Is Reported.

Applications for loans at the state
headquarters office of the Federal
Housing administration in Green's
boro under Title II for building
homes, purchasing existing homes,
and refinancing present mortgages
represent a total increase of So
|73S,830 from November 21,193S,
to the same date this year, and
there was also an increase of 49,
443,S59 in the total amount of in
sured mortgages.
An official report prepared by
Joseph L. Suitkr, the State direc-
tor, and released through Miss Cora
A. Harris, field representative, fur.
Their revealed that the total COM.
mitments issued during that period.
increased $5,947,419. p,
The report disclosed that the to-
tol applications received on Nov
ember Fl, 1885, amounted to 3d.
612,931, while on November FL
of this year the figure stood at $40,
351,761. The insured mortgages On !
the same date climbed from $S72.-s
SIS to $~4,016,374, and the total
commitments issued to approved
mortgages ros from $1,457,665 to
$7,405,GS4 in 1886.
Miss Harris pointed out that
since Mr.. Suffer was made director
in September, 1885, when the mon
etary value of all insured mortga-
ges stood at $207,735, there has
been an increase of $3,S0S,639 and
also an increase of $6,634,379 in
total commitments issued since
that date.
"All of this represents private
capital released for building pur-
poses," said Mr.. Suffer. "The Fed
eral Housing administration has no
money to lend but insures loans
made by approved lending agencies.
The demand for homes through
out the State and nation, is brisk
and reflects increasing prosperity.
1t also shows that the public is
awakening to the advantages of OBJ
tanning Federal Housing loans and
that the government guarantee of
home mortgages has proved a sound
business practice. The time seems to
be approaching when a man will
have to buy or build a home in or
der to obtain a place to live.
"There is a very promising out
for real estate in this section,
and the FILA has stimulated con-
.struction and the flow of mortgage
money through this section. The
activities of the FILA have been
able to revive the building industry
and it has given encouragement to
banks and financial institutions,
causing them to re-enter the field
with a greater degree of confidenc
and security.
1.-THE appraisal services have been
elevated to the position of import
ance which their intimate relation
to the economic and social
of the nation entitled
them to occupy. Property and To-
cation have character which must
be considered. This is highly impor-
tant in measuring the investment
risk on a piece of property. The
Federal Housing system does lot
stop with valuing property but

erty and the future returns from
the realty"
