Picturesque Spanish Houses
Being Restored in California

The restoration of the old Spanish
houses means also that the same pic
turesque and decorative color combina-
tions are being used indoors and out
today that were favored a century ago.
Most roofs were built of tile-roSe-red
in color-made by Indians at the
Missions. Outside walls were white
or tawny in color. The wooden trim
was stained deep brown or painted
a bright blue-green. The custom Of
painting a dark dado along the wall
Of the house that faced covered porch
and extending the dado color around
windows and doors is still frequently
followed. Bright blue is also still used
often as 9 trim color-the Mexicans
had a superstition that blue would
keep the devil away.
Inside the houses, tile floors are
retained or restored, while the white
coated walls make perfect back
grounds for the vivid hangings and
decorative objects that connote the
brilliant color Of a mode of life that
has vanished with the passing Of
the Dons.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
q. LOS ANGELES, Calf, June 27.-
Just as Fasteners take great pride in
restoring houses that were young when
early American history was being
made, so do Californians enjoy the
renovation of houses built in South
ern California by .Spaniards in the
early days of the nineteenth century.
There is, of course, a vast differ
ence in the types of construction on
the East and West Coasts-Atlantic
shore houses were built to withstand
the driving Billiards; the California
adobes were constructed to exclude the
blazing heat.
Eastern builders are just beginning
to learn of the pleasure to be derived
from turning houses back to the
street and opening the living rooms Of
a home toward the pleasant vista Of a
secluded garden. California long has
known it. Because of the fact that
the Indians frightened the women,
early CslifornianS frequently built the
walls Of their houses that faced the
street without windows at all.

AS BUILDER OF HOMES
Federal Structures Could Have
Been Built Cheaper Privately,
Nelson Says.

The Public Works Administration
has failed as home builder, in the
opinion of Herbert U. Nelson, secre-
tary of the National Association Of
Real Estate Boards.
"The Government" states Nelson,
under the direction Of the P. W. A.
has been building housing projects in
35 cities. After two years seven of
these are finished, others are partly
done and few have been abandoned.
According to information now avail
able, it has cost the Government
something more than $1,000 q family
unit to put up these projects. Gen.
orally speaking, the accommodations
are such as could have been supplied
by private industry at about $500

CHILDREN FIRST
URGE FOR HOME
so Out of Every 100 Owners
in America Explain Same
Motive.
srecial Dispatch to The Star.

SkEGLhA OASRabNh W nc 5tAEs
MINNEAPOLIS, June 27.-Out of
every 100 American home owners, so
buy their first house "to have a bet
ter place to bring up the children" !"
The next greatest motive which inn
pels the average couple to purchase a
house is just the sentimental long
ing "for home Of our own" In
veStment runs a very poor third as a
reason for home ownership, according
to study just completed by North
western National Life Insurance Co.
The questionnaire, which went to
10000 of the company's policy holder
families in 80 States, revealed that
the average American couple buy their
first home when they have been mar
ried five years; when the husband is
80 and the wife is 29. The average
price paid by the families reporting
in the survey was s4.89e, almost ex-
actly two years salary, for the average
annual income reported by these home
owners was $2,452.
New Homes Percentage.
New Homes were built by 81 per
cent of the families, while SO per
cent purchased older houses. There
were children in 81 per cent of the
families at the time of the purchase
of their first home, while 80 per cent
of the original home buyers were
childleSs.
Slightly more than ne-fourth-26
per cent--of the families had at the
time of reporting bought other homes
since their original purchase. The
average price paid for the second home
was $5,91+almost exactly a thousand
dollars more than the price of the
first. But more than half-58 per
cent-are still living in the homes
originally purchased, while 16 per cent
have forsaken home ownership and
are now living in rented quarters.
Moving from City.
BY far the most frequent reason
given for relinquishing ownership was
moving to another city. The next
most prevalent reason was to secure
a larger and better house, while finan-
cial reverses we're found to have
caused pproximately one-fourth of
the losses among policy-holder fam
lilies.
Exactly 49.9 per cent OF the fam
lilies reporting gave "a better place to
bring up children" as the prime rea-
son for the purchase of their first
home, while AZ per cent listed ''tired
Of moving around" I'VE wanted a per-
manent home" or similar closely-re-
lated reasons, including II per cent
who could name no other motive
than "just to have a home of our
own" The investment angle was
mentioned by 80 per cent as one Of
their reasons; only per cent acted
on the advice Of parents or others.

NEW HOME LOANS
ARE STIMULATED
Exceed Volume of Lending
for Refinancing Old
Mortgages.

Loans for new home building by
Federal savings and loan associations
now for the first time exceed the cur
rent volume of lending for refinancing
old mortgages, according to reports of
activities of 1,oO6 Federal associations
during May.
This trend indicates increased use
fulnesS to their communities of Fed
eral associations in financing new con-
struction. thus stimulating employment
in the building trades and less demand
for credit to refund maturing mort
cages. 1t reflects improved economic
condition Of persons with encumbered
properties and stronger real estate
market.

>-- Insured Mortgage System.
I'VE expect that at least 80 per
cent Of these new homes will be
financed under the insured mortgage
system of the Federal Housing Ad-
ministration, an official of he New
bold firm stated In the last year
we have found that 80 per cent of
home buyers who dealt with us pie
ierred this type of financing"
