LONDON, January 30.-An author
itative source said today the secret
political talks Anthony Eden. foreign
secretary has held with visiting dig
nitaries during the last few days
have successfully quieted the political
stu. tion in Western Europe.
Thes. talks, according to this
authority, have strengthened British
belief that there is no likelihood OF
an, thrust by Germany into the
delnilitarized Rhineland.
1t was indicated that this belief
of peace for the present at least, is
the result of conversations Eden had
with Pierre -Etienne Flandin, foreign
ministe' of France, and Konstantip
Won Neurath. foreign minister OF
Germany.
Nc Assurances Exchanged.
No specific assurances were ex-
changed in these talks, it was asserted,
but definite progress was made to
allay the existing suspicion.
The net results Of the talks ap-
peared to be Won Neurath's reaffirma-
ton Of German loyalty and support of
the Locarno pact, indicating that
Reichsfuehrer Hitler is not prepared
to scrap 1t by coup in the Rhineland.
For their part, the British were un-
derstood to have treasured Won Neu-
rath they were not tampering with
the Locarno pact through any ex-
elusive bilateral pact with France.
The latter point was specified to
assure Germany further that the
recent mutual military aid UNDER
standing reached between Great Brit
ain and France was only concerned
with Italy and did not involve any
understanding affecting Germany or
future developments.
No Question Of Exclusive Pact.
Eden told Won Neurath there was
no question of Great Britain entering
with France into a pact which would
not also be available to Germany.
Informed sources said no question
of the revision of the Locarno treaty
was raised in Eden's conversations
With either the French or the Ger
nan foreign ministers.
Eden continued his conversations
With powerful foreign visitors again
.oday. He talked to Prince Paul,
'egent Of Yugoslavia, and later held
mother conference with Maxim Lit
'inod. Russias foreign corimissar.

BY G. GOULD LINCOLN,
Staf CorreSpondent of The Star,

ATLANTA, Ga. January 30.-Gov.
Eugene Talmadge can become the
rallying post for Southern anti-Roose-
welt Democrats if he picks up the
invitation thrown to him by the con-
vention of "Jeffersonian Democrats"
in Macon yesterday.
It seems to be up to the Governor
to make the decision.
However, despite the roar of ap-
proval that went up from the meeting
when his name was laid before it for
Endorsement for the presidential NOM
1nation against President Roosevelt,
delegates from States other than
Georgia were not in favor of in
dorsing any candidate. They said so
after the convention had adjourned
and they were leaving Macon.
Indeed, there had been a general
understanding at meeting Of the
Executive Committee of the conven-
ton prior to its opening that the
question of candidates would not be
brought up in the convention. Mem
bers of that committee said Gov. Tai
madge himself understood there was
to be no effort to indorse any one.
Furthermore, the Georgia Governor
had been entirely satisfied with that
arrangement. It may have suited
Talmadge, but 1t did not suit Hugh
Howell, Democratic State chairman.
and other ardent Talmadge men and
women.
Howell Planned Coup.
Howell seized the opportunity, when
he was recognized to make the mo-
tion for the adoption of the plat
form" submitted by the Resolutions
Committee, to call for Endorsement
of Talmadge. The stage was all set
for the coup. OF the 5000 persons
and more in the meeting the vast
majority were from Georgia and all
strongly for Talmadge.
I'VE have great leaders in the East.
the West AMI the South" said Howell,
referring t. the anti Roosevelt forces
among toe Democrats. you heard
one of them Saturday night" (meaning
AL Smith
There was only sprinkling of ap-
plause.
1T is high time" continued Howell,
"that we in the South select candi-
date for the presidential nomination
who will not consider the platform a
scrap of paper We have such leader
In Georgia Gene Talmadge. There's
q man whose Democracy can't be
questioned Nominate him and he'll
stick to the platform you have just
adopted"
No Opposition Voiced.
Howeu put the Endorsement in the
form of an invitation to Gov. Tai
madge tn permit the use of his name
as q presidential candidate in opposi-
ton to Roosevelt. He got the indorse-
ment of the meeting without dis
senting vote whatever delegates from
other States may have thought about
it. Some OF them did not like the
position Iney had been put in, but ap-
parently there was nothing they could
do about it.
In some quarters an effort was made
to make it appear that Howell had
sought only the Endorsement of the
Georgia anti-Roosevelt Democrats for
the candidacy Of Talmadge. It Is true
he did mention various sections of the
States in his demand for an indorse-
ment. Nevertheless. to the observer 1t
sounded very much as though he asked
the indorsement Of the entire meeting
for Talmadge, including the delegates

HOME DEVELOPING
Quantity Production Pro-
gram for Bankers, Build
erS and Others.

A program to stimulate the interest
Of financial institutions, real estate de-
velopers and builders in the creation Of
desirable sites for low-priced homes
and in the profitable business to be
developed through the quantity pro-
duction Of such homes is being pro-
jected by the Federal Housing Admin
istration, it was announced today.
On the basis of rentals paid and in
come data available, studies made re-
veal that in centering their attention
on homes costing $4,000 and up build
ers are missing more than half Of the
potential market, according to the
Housing Administration. 1t will be
the purpose Of the newly inaugurated
program, it was explained, to show the
need Of decent and attractive sites for
modest dwellings and to give practical
suggestions as to how they may be
profltably created. In order to achieve
this result series Of meetings will be
conducted by the Housing Administra-
ton during coming months in large
population centers.
Home Communities.
"The creation Of desirable residential
communities has much greater sig
nif1cance than simply providing a de-
cent home Site" said Seward H. Mott.
chief of the Land Planning Section Of
the Housing Administration, who Is in
charge Of the program.
Growth and character Of our cities
is absolutely controlled by the manner
in which subdivisions are developed.
A badly planned street layout or the
lack of control Of land use in single
subdivision can create traffic and So
cial problems that throttle a whole
section of a city with losses Of mil
lions of dollars to home owners and
investors.
"It is because Of the tremendous
effect that subdivision development has
on real estate values that the Federal
Housing Administration insures no
loans in new or partially developed
subdivisions until they have been re-
viewed and approved"
Constructive Activity.
Mr.. Mott stated that, due to the in
sistence that every subdivision must
meet a certain minimum standard and
to the constructive suggestions given
real estate developers on matters such
as layout, improvements, marketing,
ETC.. this phase of the Federal Housing
Administrators program has devel-
oped into one of its most constructive
activities.
At the meetings to be held matters
such as topography, soil, drainage,
transportation, highways, front-foot
improvement costs, sewers and water,

ton costs. street pattern, landscaping

E. c. Baltz, secretary Of the Perpet-

Board Of Directors Of the United
States Building and Loan League
today. He Is second vice president of
the league, which Is the national Or
ganization Of the $6,500 900, 900 build
ing and loan industry.
Believing that $1,000, ,000,o 900 in new
home loans will be placed on the books
Of these institutions during the calen-
der year 1886, the leaders In the ma
tional organization are meeting to dis
cuSS steps which the industry must
take to handle this volume of business,
unparalleled in any except 10 of its
los years of operation in America. In
a majority of communities, Mr.. Baltz
points out, funds available to the thrift
and home financing institutions are
more than sufficient to take care OF
the rapidly increasing loan demand
but there are weighty matters to come
before the board, such as selecting
the sound loans by more adequate ap-
praisals. adopting accounting prac-
tees which will give the most easily
discernible record of the new loans
ever possible for both the borrower
and the lending institutions, and es-
tablishing contacts with the construc-
tion industry to aid it in its home
merchandising job.

.ASTOR'S REALTY BUYING
In PANIC OF 1887 CITED
Millions Realized as Result of
New Yorker's "Vision" in
Purchasing Land.

John Jacob Astor's vision, backed by
courage to buy real estate in the panic
Of 1887, when the mayor of New York
wrote: God help the real estate
owner" brought him millions later
because this shrewd merchant fig
ured, according to Roy Wenzlick, real
estate analyst, "unpredictable risks
are less in a commodity like real
estate, moving in slow cycle, than
they are in the stock market, which
may tumble in an hour on the flash
report of some unforeseen occur
renee"
While all courses of action contain
some risk, we believe that the risks in
volved today in the purchase of real
estate are fewer than those involved
in the purchase Of most other types
of investments"
The mayors supphcation Of divine
help for realty owners in 1887 was
justified, Mr.. Wenzlick said, because
"at the time taxes were at record
heights, having fallen little from the
level of the preceding boom. Fore
closures were higher than at any
previous time in history. Vacancies
were high. rents were low and still
dropping"
