Soldiers of Fort ~

NJ 's.O,tS United States E.tLvA>
were uong the latest contingent
Of Can. ,,;un soldiers arriving il Eng
land 10 help n the defense o. the
British Isles against the imminent
German blitzNrieg. They were so
inocula,ed with the Itch 10 tight that
these soldiers OF fortune migrated
from this country across the border
into Canada and hitched up with the
expedi,ionary unit Tor shipment
overseas.
It was something OF an odyssey
OF the sea. Was this search for >eri-
Gus romance by these rowing Youths.
who voluntarily shook trCw their
feet the du>t OF the soil Q: safety
back home. where the nearest thing
to wax in prospect is the intensive
training under the CONSUMPTION plan.
We would Surnise there are
many thousands OF young Americans
like these who would be willing 10
enlist for their own country. Yet
there ale those who tell us con-
scription is the only way out Tor the
United States in this emergency. -.
that all other plans have failed. TIT.
forget 70 elaborate on what "Othe!
schemes have been tried and failed.
When action of these volunteers
to the Canadian army is analysed, it
is not as difficult as Otherwise to
comprehend the warlike urge that
keeps much OF Europe in arms most
OF the time. The will and the de-
sire to fight lives in the breasts Of
many real he-men. They are not
afraid 70 die. though they give little
thought to that final extremity Of
life in the battle forces Of their
own o. another country. Every SOL
der knows the hazards Of his job
and the sacrifices ne may ultimately
be called upon to make. Yet many
of them. including these United
States nationals who went overseas
with ne Canadians, like it and even
prefer it to the sort OF existence
some OF them lead in peace time.
Some of these boys left families to
enlist with the Dominion forces, and
others would have done so had
they not been turned down and told
to so back nome and support their
dependents Who knows, though,
but that some of them may have
been running from family respon-
sibilities?
Soldiers Of fortune! Yes, in
every country there are some of
them. They like the business OF
fighting, and doubtless most of them
think they will not be the ones tc
die; and even if they arc, theirs is
the sort of attitude that one dies bu
once; that death comes to every man
sooner or later, and if sooner by ;
mere year or two it makes but little
difference.
Rational men hate fig /,
war : if it's got to be dor.e any.
how e, s Il privilege to do honor t
these volunteers who take it OF
themselves to do their full share
and more.

F. H. A. Acquires 1865
Small Home Properties

With the F. H. AS home mortgage
insuring operations proceeding at
record levels this spring, the finan-
cial condition of the F. H. A. remains
powerful and charges against its re-
serves continue small, Administrator
Stewart Mcdonald said today.
Through April 80, the F.. H. A. had
acquired 1855 small home properties
with book value of about $7,4l0, 900.
OF this number. 844 had been sold
and 721 remained on hand with a
book value of 81, 500 900.
The sales price on the 844 prop
critics sold aggregated s3,804 ,450
against total expenditures for these
properties of $4,267 ,685. Net charges
against the Mortgage Insurance
Fund thus amounted to $463, ,235.
Total expenditures consisted chiefly
of insurance in the form of deben-
lures paid to lending institutions in
exchange for properties which they
foreclosed and turned over to the
administrator.
