ARMY TELEWSION
TESTED IN FRANCE
Gen. Niessel Says Planes Will
Soon Be Able to Transmit
Scenes,

PARIS (P,.-French technical ex-
perts are working night and day to
adapt television to the needs Of their
military forces.
Gen. Andre Niessel, former mem
Der OF the Superior War Council,
asserts that television soon will make
1t possible for aviators to transmit to
the general stan hour hour views
from behind enemy lines
Behind its own lines, Gen. Niessel
says, the French Army will be able
to flash television maps from head
quarters to firing line posts. Tele-
vized orders will be flashed in a frac-
ton of the time necessary to send
them by wireless And there will be
no errors in transmission. for the
original signed document will appear
on receivers.
Because television can transmit
written order of hundreds of words
instantly. Gen. Niessel believes its use
will make for secrecy. Direction
finding instruments can ascertain the
position Of radio-sending station, but
Gen. Niessel believes television will
make that extremely diflicult In
slant transmission by television will
give enemy scouts little time to adjust
direction finding instruments, whereas
IN wireless the time necessary to send
q message gives ample opportunity to
discover the stations position.

RELATIONS SHOWN
Evidence Of Stabi|lzing In.
fIuence of Insured Plan
Is Indicated.

New evidence Of the stabili1ing
influence which the insured mortgage
plan OF the Federal Housing Admin.
istration may exert upon the real
estate and mortsage lending markets
is contained in four tables recently
prepared to show the relationship
between incomes Of families which
have obtained insured loans and the
total amount OF their mortgage
Indebtedness, as well ~ monthly pay
men1 which they are making.
In commenting on the tables.
which are 4 part Of the third annual
report, Stewart Mcdonald, Federal
housing administrator, said that the
fact that the majority Of families are
paying . relatively small proportion
Of their incomes for mortgage pay
ments on homes should make 1t easier
for them to maintain their homes
during periods Of depression, when
income II reduced.
Small Incomes.
"Our records show that approxi-
mately 60 per cent Of persons obtain
ing insured mortgages receive incomes
of $1,000 or less, and that more than
so per cent Of our mortgasors are
making payments Of less than $50 per
month";" Mr.. Mcdonald said. "These
payments include principal, interest
taxes, insurance, service charge and
the mortgage insurance premium.
I'VE know, also, that over 10 per
cent Of the families obtaining insured
loans are paying for their homes 4
sum which h less than two and one
half times their annual income, and
that 81 per cent Of the families are
paying less than 20 per cent Of their

Nearly 80 per cent Of our mort

less than twice the size o( their an

Mr.. Mcdonald also stated that tbs

1T also seems reasonably certain
that families can pay out in monthly

without endansering the stability Of
