HOME SHOWS SPUR

tered on Financing New
Residences.

Reports from the first Of the series
Of National Home Shows now under
way throughout the country indicate
they are proving Of great benefit to
those visiting them in the solution
Of their mortgage problems.
Both at Baltimore and at Hous-
ton, where the first Of the shows
have been held, the preponderence
Of inquiries at the Federal Housing
Administration information booth have
been concerning the financing of new
home construction, the purchase OF
existing homes and the refinancing
OF existing mortgages. Officials have
expressed surprise that this type of
inquiry has exceeded that of home
repair and modernization.
About 80 per cent Of the inquiries
have been on how to proceed to OBJ
tain an insured mortgage for new
home construction under the So
called single-mortgage system. The
remaining 10 per cent has pertained
to the purchase of existing homes or
the refinancing of existing mort
cages.

FINANCING LISTED
TO 5000 HOMES
Eight Southern States Gov
cred by 1885 Record Of
Winston-SaIem Bank,

Credit for financing ut least 5000
homes through building and loan
members In eight Southern States
during 1885 was claimed here today
by oficials Of the Federal Home Loan
Bank of Winston Salem, which in
cludes the District of Columbia in its
territory.
In his report to stockholders at their
annual meeting, o. X. LaRoque, pres
ident of the institution, said:
1T Is worthy of note that during.
the year 1885. our loans aggregating
81. 400, 900, II divided on the basis Of
the average loan made by building
and loan associations, indicates that
the Federal Home Loan Bank Of
Winston Salem through these adj
vances, was directly responsible for
the financing Of at least 5000 homes
in the fourth district during the year
just closed"
Representatives of home financing
institutions OF North and South Caro-
lima, Maryland, Virginia, Georgia,
Alabama, Florida and the District Of
Columbia gathered here this morning
for the stockholders meeting.
Loans in Year Numerous.
Stockholders were told that the bank
made more loans in the last IL months
than were made from the beginning
Of operations in 1892 until the close Of
1884. LaRoque said he regarded this
as a Significant trend" The total
number Of advances last year was 753
against $50 for the previous rs months
of operation.
The upward trend started last April,
the presidents report revealed. From
a low point Of $4,800,00o outstand-
ing loans at that time, demands for
home construction money gradually
increased until the bank closed the
year with 5000, 686 in advances and
81. 481, TIT in bond investments. Loans
and investments were nearly doubled
In 8 months.
Repayments for the year totaled
1861 .e43. showing the liquidity Of
member institutions" according to
LaRoque. The net gain in outstand-
ing loans was $1,746.30l.
While emphasizing that the home
loan bank system was created by
Congress primarily to provide reser-
voir Of credit for home financing
institutions rather than as a money
making organization, LaRoque took
pride in pointing out that this agency
Of the Government was able to put
1921 900 into the Federal Treasury in
1885 as dividends on Government
stock, and $4,000 in dividends to
members" The legal reserve fund
was increased $3S, 900, placing the total
at $4,000.
Increase in Members.
Membership increased from 355 to
413 in the 12-month period. the report
showed. Maryland leads in number
Of members, having Ill against 102
for North Carolina, which comes
second.
In referring to the help which the
bank had given to home financing
institutions by advancing needed
funds. LaRoque said records tend to
indicate that building and loan asso-
Citations are handling approximately
60 per cent Of all home financing
operations IN the country today.
The bank located here matched the
dividend rate Of any other bank In
the system with its 2 per cent return
to stockholders and at the same time
reduced the interest rate on loans
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1936-01-25

from per cent to 3h per cent on
January l this year. Originally the
rate was S per cent, but was cut to 4
per cent in 1884.
In closing his report. LaRoque
called upon members to "rededicate
themselves to the cause of community
betterment. May not urge upon you
-" the necessity for rebuilding your
efforts today. in order that the expan-
sion Of home building may lead the
way to greater progress and a more
contented citizenship"

MANY CONCRETE USES
Agriculture Department Bulletin
Supplies Exhaustive List.

The uses about the place to which
concrete may be put are 50 many
that the Portland Cement Association

Agriculture have issued bulletins list

steps, porches, platforms ratings, bird
baths, bins, and innumerable other
uses are described.
Concrete, being in fluid form when
placed, can be nodded to any shape
or size with comparative ease; the
most difficult part about its use is
the making Of the forms in which it
must be poured.
These forms may be made Of planks
or certain kinds Of impregnated fiber
boards or sheets Of laminated wood,
braced to keep them true and straight
while the pouring and setting is going
on. Make forms carefully, for the
final result will depend largely upon
them.
