mission representing the u. s.
government and that of the
Dominion. The job is to out
line ways and means of pro-
jecting the proposed highway
from the u. s. to Alaska. The
movement is progressing de-
spite the world war. In fact,
probably faster than if there
was no European conflict.
Hopes are rife that a definite
dollars-and-cents proposal can
be presented to the Canadian
parliament and our congress
within a year.
Estimates of cost run about
$20,000,000 for a "a foot
gravel-surfaced road tying the
US. highway system to that
now existing in Alaska. One
suggestion is that Canada
build the road across Yukon
territory, with US. cash help
ing out on the 500-mile section
in British Columbia.
We trust the commission

tai today gets down to cases
and that a definite program
is set. II and when it does,

world is coming to? Such,
however, is the speed of prog
ress in this modern civiliza-
ton.
JINGLE SANS internal reve-
y nue. department for Wash
ington and Alaska frequently
offers very interesting and
international figures on tax
paying. In this district were
filed in 1889 some 1872. 900 re-
turns. OF this number 22,175
reportAd incomes above $1,000
annually. But II pct, how
ever, paid income taxes. Simi-
larly, $4,000 corporations filed
returns, but only two per cent
made sufficient to justify in
come tax payments.
This year, still more returns
will be made, inasmuch as
teachers and state and local
government employees must
make returns. There are some
1886 teachers in the state
and some 1861 employed in
state departments and institu-
tons. From the viewpoint of
revenue alone the federal gov
eminent expects comparative
" little more revenue. Ma
tionally some 100000 state
and local officers and en-
ployees earn S3,600,000, 900
annually. Due to average low
level of salaries, only SIG, 000,-
900 more cash will be added to
US. income from this source.
However, the big idea is
that the average taxpayer will
feel that he is not being dis
eliminated against now that
the public official and en-
ploye is put on an equal basis
with him. And that is some
thing.

i value is contained in the

data rejecting an unpatterned
evolution of America. For in
stance, there is the change in
habits of dress in the past
decade:
There was a time when no
golfer dreamed of playing un-
less he had proper Knockers
and wool stockings. Twenty
one million pairs of Knockers
were used in 1927. Ten years
later, but ten million were
sold. Manufacturers report
that in the same ten years
sale of mems and boys woven
fabric union suits dropped
from five million to 637 900
dozen. Meanwhile use Of shorts
rose to eight million dozen
from almost nothing.

FINANCES PROBLEM


The Canadian group, headed by
Charles Stewart. chairman of the
international joint commission
here, has refused to discuss the
financial aspects of the negotia-
lions, maintaining such discussion
Ia beyond the authority vested m
the commission by the Dominion
government
Although there was some belief
that the financing aspects Of the
proposal might delay the con-
ference beyond the four days set.
II was expected Pattulio would
press for detailed dicussion Of
that question.

Pattullo contends the Dominion
representatives have the authority
to talk figures with the Ameri-
cans beyond the point Of merely
estimating cost
Disturbed by the possibility the
federal government may abandon
the project. which would run
through his province, the pre-
mier has considered negotiating
with the Americans himself

F.H. A. Underwriting Head
Praises TRAINING PROGRAM

Frederick M. Babcock, director of
the Underwriting Division of the
Federal Housing Administration,
said today the formalized training
program adopted last year for the
underwriting organization has
proved its worth in strengthening
the F. H. AS mortgage risk rating
procedure.
He pointed out that an analysis
of the papers submitted by 1,4O0
members of the underwriting or
ganization in last years examina-
ton has revealed higher level of
grades than for the preceding ex-
animation.
"The training program has
proved It's WORTH" he said. "It is
effective in obtaining nationally
uniform point of view with regard
to valuation and risk rating tech
niques, soundness and consistency
in underwriting decisions, applca-
ton of prescribed procedures and
full development of the capacities
of employees looking toward ad-
vancement in the organization.
Further than that, it enables us
to discover weak spots in our sys-
tenn and organization to strengthen
them"
Mr.. Babcock declared that con-
tinuation Of the high professional
standards underlying the under
writing phases of the insured mort
gage system 'is assured by our pres
ent system of selecting and training
personnel"

Widening Of U.S.H.A.
To Cure BIighted
Areas Suggested
keul Estate Boards
Directors to Consider
-,
Plan on Tuesday

Voicing opposition to additional
appropriations for the United States
Housing Authority at this time, the
National Association of Real Estate
Boards today suggested that the
U. S. H. A. be broadened to help
attack the problem of blighted areas
In cities by assisting in land as
sembly and by chartering rede-
velopment companies to function by
q limited dividend basis.
The associations proposal is for
. partnership with municipalities
and private enterprises through
which rundown areas can be rede-
veloped and low-cost housing can
be provided that could reach far
down into the income groups not
adequately served at present.
Directors to Weigh Plan.
Details of the proposed plan, sug-
gested by the associations Com.
mittee on Housing and Blighted
Areas after recent two-day meet
ing in Washington, are to come
before directors of the associate
at meeting in Chicago next Tues
day.
Such a plan would supplement
every dollar of public money with
5 or dollars of private funds, thus
greatly extending the scope of the
program, the association said.
Public Funds Held Inadequate.
There exists housing problem,
but there is not enough money in
the public funds to replace more
than a minute fraction of sub
standard housing by Government
built, Government-own struc-
lures" Newton c. Farr, president
Of the association, declared. Nor
Is there the will In this country
for such solution.
"Opposition is increasing to local
tax exemption for Federal housing
projects, particularly among tax
payers of small homes. Sporadic
efforts to build isolated housing
projects are insufficient to solve
the housing problem and are in
capable of curing blight. The U.
S. H. A. projects, frequently placed
on vacant property, have in many
cities themselves tended to further
the decentralization movement"
