Mortgage Foreclosures Up
4 Pet. in October

A 4 per cent rise in the season.
ally-adjusted index of non-farm
foreclosures was revealed Satur-
day in figures for the month OF
October issued by the Federal
Home Loan Bank Board.
Although in terms Of actual
cases. these foreclosures increased
less than l per cent-from ABA
cases in September to 4.40S cases
in October-several interesting
factors were observed by statisti-
clans of the bank board.
The foreclosure rise represents
a reversal of a downward trend
of the past eight years. and it was
caused almost entirely by acceler-
ated foreclosures in those areas
which are not experiencing a
shortage Of housing due TO in
creased defense activity. In the
latter areas, foreclosure actions
declined 2 per cent.

Q. and A.

OIL have noticed in several
model houses bathroom floors OF
linoleum decorated with borders
and attractive designs such as
stars, fish, anchors. How does
one obtain this effect? -
Att is now possible to pur-
chase these designs ready-made In
an interesting variety of patterns
and colors. They are quickly and
easily inserted into an area cut
out Of the linoleum which forms
the background. If you wish a
design or pattern that is not a
stock item, if can be cut by the
flooring contractor or cut to order
by the manufacturer. This, OF
course. would be more expensive
than the ready-cut inserts.
Q-What should we consider
I'm planning the location Of .
terrace for our house?
A-The placing of the terrace
will depend largely upon the ORR
entation OF the house. Terraces
should be located so that they will
be protected from the hot after
noon sun either by the house or
nearby shade trees. They should
have privacy, be easily accessible
from the living rooms and, If out
door dining is planned, be located
not too far from the kitchen. Gen.
orally speaking, the garden side
Of the house Is the most logical
place for the terrace.

More Rental Units

Foley pointed out that the large
volume of new house construction
in the moderate priced field here
in the last year has made SUBJ
|stantial contribution to the avail
ability of rental units in the De-
|troit area.
A study of 500 recently APP
proved FILA mortgage applica-
tons, showed that 393 of the
applicants had previously been
living in rented quarters In this
general area. :.
.Thus most Of the new houses.
made available by tho building
industry were actually creating
vacancies In existing rental
quarters to become available to
others seeking places to rent"
Foley said.
