 The Federal Housing Administra- ton was established more than three years ago. The National Housing Act, creating the FILA, was signed by President Roosevelt on June 27, 1894. Its declared purpose is to en- courage improvement in housing standards and conditions and to establish sound system of home financing.
 A distinctive feature of the FILA is that it makes no loans or grants of public money. It simply insures loans for home financing made by hanks, savings, building and loan as- sociaions and other private lend- ing institutions.
 The FILA is an independent agency of the Federal Government. It is headed by Stewart Mcdonald, whose title is Federal Housing Ad- miniStrator.

Housing Authority
 And FILA Separate
 0rganizationsNow
Ic kes, Mcdonald Explain Differences in Two Sim
 ilarity Named Setups

A joint statement by Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes and Fed eral Housing Administrator Stew art Mcdonald says:
 The Federal Housing Adm his a. tion and the new United States Housing Authority, despite the sim ilarity of their names, are two en- tirely separate organizations, sep arately staffed and separately oper- ated.
 Their functions are different. They do not conflict or overlap. Both are designed to be perman- ent agencies of the Federal Gov ernment.
 The United States Housing Au- thority was created by Act of Con- gress, commonly known as the Wag- ner-Steagall law, and approved by President Roosevelt on September l, 1937. Its purpose, as defined in the title of the Act, is to provide financial assistance to the States and political subdivisions thereof for the elimination of unsafe and in- sanitary housing conditions, for the eradication of slums, for the pro- vision of decent, safe, and sanitary for families of low income, and for the reduction of unemploy- ment and the stimulation of busi- ness activity, to create a United States Housing Authority, and for other purposes"
 The United States Housing Au- thority is designed primarily to pro- vide housing for groups of persons for whom private industry cannot provide suitable housing.

Duck Hunters
 Get Few Flight
 Waterfowl Here
Major Migration of Both Ducks and Geese to
 West, East

Duck hunters in the Juneau dis trict are S h oot ing mostly local ducks, and as usual, they will this season as other seasons, according to Executive Officer Frank Dufresne of the Alaska Game Commission. Information from the south is that on August 26 and 27 bands of a thousand or more Alaska sprig ducks were headed over Vancouver Island toward California, several days before the season opened in Southeast Alaska
 That is a common and natural occurrence" Dufresne explained. We do not get more than about 5 per cent of the flight ducks in this region As a matter of fact, those sprigs now headed for Cali fornia leave Alaska in the region of False Pass on the Alaska Penin- Sula. Black brant, white-fronted geese and snow geese do about the same thing. We rarely see them here, though a few swing inland over Petersburg and south
 "The Interior ducks, on the other hand, go up the Yukon and Tanana and fly south across Canada, east of the mountains so we do not get any of those. Such ducks as we have here are 95 percent local"
