FILA LAND PLAN
 GAINS SHARPLY
Divisions Work Expanded 200 Per Cent in l939;
 2,6l5 Subdivisions

Washington, April 3.-Activities of the Federal Housing Administra- tion's Land Planning Division, il, encouraging the proper planning and development of residential neighborhoods' showed great expan- sion during 1889, Federal Housing Administrator Stewart Mcdonald announced.
 The volume of work handled by the division last year was 26O per cent greater than in 1888 and is still steadily increasing, MT. Mcdonald said.
 In all, the division reviewed and analysed a total of 2,615 residential subdivisions during 1889. These de- velopmentS covered 84,657 acres and 282,89O separate lots. The division also arranged IT speciclal land-plan- ming conferences for subdivision de- veloperS, land owners, builders, mortgages, architects, and en- gineers. In addition, 86 conferences were held with city officials in re- gard to the preparation of city plans and zoning ordinances.
 AS result of the FHA's land planning program, in many cities more than 50 per cent of the FHA's mortgage insurance business is To- cated ill neighborhoods planned and protected through cooperation with its Land Planning Division, MT. Mo- Donald pointed out.
 The FHA's experience has clearly demonstrated that protected, plan ned, neighborhoods are more desir- able for home owners, afford better security for investors and are more profitable to developers, he said. Much of the divisions work is con- cerned with the salvag.ng and re- mobilization of residential areas.

Waterbury, houses the out-pa- tient department of the Water bury hospital and through the superintendent of the Waterbury hospital the informal permission of the hospitals board of di- rectors for the use of space at the Chase Dispensary was ob- tained. It was the understand ing of the superintendent of the hospital and of the defendants, Goodrich and Nelson, that three senior members of the hospital genealogical staff had been con- stituted, and had agreed to func- tion, as an advisory board for this contraceptive clinic, although these physicians, who were sup posed to constitute the advisory board, profess complete ignor- ance of the matter.
 Operation of the clinic was be- gun in September, 1888 and it was open on Tuesday morning of each week until June 12, 1939. During this period, according to the records of the clinic, some 60 patients, approximately, were handled by the clinic.
 Patients Sent By Physicians
 Almost all of the patients who sought and were given contra ceptive aGvice and equipment by these defendants were referred to this So-called Maternal Health Center by physicians attending tie regular genealogical clinic at the Chase Dispensary, physi- clans in private practice or so- cial service workers.

value of stainless steel trains.
 There is that dangerous tendency for the person to imagine that as he gets to know more in one line he automatically becomes an expert in everything else. Two courses, or 20 courses, do not justify the know it-all attitude which so many super ficially educated people Haunt to others.
 In 20 years of teaching college students I emphasized, perhaps vainly. that the main thing they should get out of college was the realization they knew so little that they should keep their lips sealed and never try to show off their in- formation.
 And to give point to this en- phasis, it was only necessary to add that nothing makes a person disliked much quicker than to show off his information in front of others. Let the other person spout his information; he will like us more for listening to him, and we will add to our own store or information for no tuition charge other than the listening.

hands. The body is the more pow
erful. 1t wants to get in there and
help get more distance. But what
it usually does is throttle hands and
wrists.
How can you keep too much body
out? By getting more comfort, by
standing straighter and closer, by
keeping in mind a mental picture
of what your hands are doing with
the clubhead. This all calls for
more concentration.
You can't take any of these
things for granted. They won't take
care of themselves. Not even on be-
half of the best professionals.
The average golfer has wrecked
any chance of good swinging even
before he starts his backsWing. In
fact, he hasn't given himself a
chance. He wonders why at the top
of his backswing he is in no posi-

ance is all wrong.

The hardest thing in golf is the
