IS MILLIONS PAID
0NH. OIL. c. LOANS
Interest and Repayments in
January Amount to 80 Per
Cent of Total Due.

More than $4,000, 900 was received
by the Home Owners Loan Corp. dur
ing January, in payment Of interest
and repayment Of principal due on
the loans which the corporation has
made to nearly a million home owners
in the relief Of home mortgage distress.
Total January receipts Of the cor
poration from its borrowers amounted
to $18,082, 900, which Is 90.1 per cent
of the total sum maturing in January
on principal and interest account, and
exceeds by nearly 100000 the largest
amount collected by the corporation
on its loans in any previous month.
Total principal and interest pay
ments due the Home Owners Loan
Corp. from the time it was created,
in June, 1888, to January 81, 1886,
aggregated $315,244,011, Of which
approximately 73 per cent had been
paid, indicating marked improvement
over total cumulative receipts from
borrowers as of December 81, 1885,
when 68 per cent Of all principal and
interest due since the corporations
establishment, had been paid.
Up to January 81, the H. o. L. G.
had been forced to institute fore
closure proceedings against 3,207 Of its
borrowers who had wilfully failed to
make their payments to the corpora
ton when due, although actually able
to pay. This group of deliberately de-
linquent borrowers represents about
IS per cent of the 5,751 total FORE
closure proceedings instituted by the
6rporation from its establishment up
to January 81. Total foreclosure pro-
ceedings instituted to date actually in
volve only one out Of everysl72 of the
corporations 100000 borrowers, how
ever. In 225 cases, moreover, fore
closure proceedings were stopped be-
cause the home owners involved paid
up their delinquencies.
The Property Management Division
of the Home Owners Loan Corp. re-
ports that as Of January 81. 1t had ac-
quired 1879 properties, Of which 81 had
been sold, at prices aggregating $780,
294, which slightly exceeds the cost at
which these properties were carried
on the books of the corporation. The
majority of the remaining properties
acquired by the corporation had been
rented in whole or in part on January
81. The remainder were either in pro-
cess of reconditioning or were offered
for sale or rental.

BY LAWRENCE CROLIUs,

II you have always wanted cedar
closet in your home, it is now an easy
matter to take an ordinary closet and
convert it into one of those fragrant,
moth-repelling storage spaces.
A well-constructed one ordinarily
would cost lot of money, not to
mention the muss and bother of con-
struction work. All this has been elm
mated. however, by new cedar wood
compound.
1t is only necessary to take box Of
this cedar powder, mix it with water,
and apply the paste to any surface
with brush. 1t quickly dries. leaving
a smooth, absorbent surface which
gives of the pleasant odor which
seems to be highly unpleasant to the
average moth. The oils of cedar wood
are concentrated in this compound,
making it more effective and lasting
than the wood itself.
A definite advantage over ordinary
wood is the fact that the material
can be reactivated after the essential
oils have dried out by evaporation.
This occurs in cedar wood in q short
time. and afterward little can be done
about it. The inside of closet which
has been coated with this new material
can be kept permanently fragrant
simply by applying some Of the cedar
oil to the absorbent surface. Once or
twice a year it can be sprayed or
brushed on. It dries quickly leaving
no greasy surface.
The manufacturers estimate that it
will cost from one fifth to one-tenth
Of the price of an ordinary cedar
wood closet to refinish your present
closet with this material.
Old trunks can be quickly converted
into cedar chests by coating the inside
In the same manner.

Every home has numerous storage
spaces in out-of -the-way places which
are entirely without fire protection.
Homes in the country, far from water
lines, are easy prey to fire, and in most
cases the owners have failed to take
any precautions against it.
There Is now available a chemical
fire extinguisher, which may be hung
IN any place which might need pro-
lection. 1t will operate one or two
minutes after the fire has started.
Made of aluminium, the unit is sus-
pended from the ceiling and provides
protection for considerable number
of cubic feet of space. When a fire
starts near the unit, the excessive heat
develops a gas pressure inside, melting

sprinkler head. A chemical spray is

LOAN ASSOCIATION
JOINS A. /. A. PLAN
Perpetual to Cooperate
With Architects in Home
Building Service.

The Perpetual Building Association
announced today that it would CO.
operate with the home building serv-
ice plan initiated by the American
Institute of Architects to raise build
ing standards throughout the country
by bringing architectural service
hitherto largely confined to costlier
structures, into the small field.
Technical phases of the service will
be furnished by the Architects Small
Home Service, recently established by
the A. I. A. The plan calls for CO.
operation between architects, build
ers. Government agencies, bankers
ard other groups to achieve higher
national housing level.
The Perpetual is one of the largest
and olaast thrift and home financing
institutions in the country. Comment
ing upon the new home building serv-
ice plan, Edward @. Baltz, secretary Of
the association, stated:
The plan combines home financing
with an architectural advisory and
supervisory service. It includes vari-
ETY. of tested designs especially pre-
pared for use in the Washington area,
ranging in cost from the modest cot
tage to homes costing as much as
$500. exclusive of the lot. And for
those contemplating larger homes. ar
rangements will be made for indi-
vidual design and full architectural
service at customary fees.
In view of the existing shortage Of
moderate-priced homes that is now
developing in Washington and the
adjoining area, the officers and direc-
tors of our institution have given
careful study to methods by which
the cost of home ownership could be
reduced and the quality of home con-
struction improved. Marked progress
has already been made by our asso-
citation and many others in Washing
ton in recent months in making long
term mortgage loans available to small
home owners on more liberal terms
than ever before"

REALTY BILL BACKED
Separate Department Would Be
Created in New York.

The Real Estate Association of the
State of New York is supporting a
bill, now before the State legislature,
to create Department Of Real Estate
in the State government.
j. Russell Thorne of Binghamton,
president of the association, said that
concentration in one department of
all matters pertaining to realty would
be advantageous to the State and
would serve the best interests of prop
erty owners. and would be step in the
right direction for solving the perplex-
ing problems of real estate ownership,
rehabilitation, financing and taxa

"JERRY BUILDERS"
HIT IN new YORK
Public Warned to Check Respon.
sibility Of Contractors
Seeking Work.

Concerted action against the Jerry
builder" is being taken by the New
York State Labor Commission and
the state organization Of the Federal
Housing Administration.
The public, through an educational
program, has been warned to check
the responsibility of building contrac-
tors soliciting work and to remember
that the lowest bidder on q project
may not be the one best qualified to
do work.
According to the labor commission,
certain contractors have been able to
take work on low bids by lodging
state law requirements concerning
compensation insurance. The COM
mission feels that the operations of
Jerry builders" Is increasing unduly
and that steps must be taken to check
their operations.
