HOME BUILDING
 STILL INCREASES
One, TwO-FamiIy Houses Most Popular; Home
 Owners CataIOg

Home building continues as one of the most important forces in the nations construction program dur ing the protracted period of empha- sis on huge defense jogs. More and more families look toward the per- sonalized comforts, conveniences and security that they can lind only in their own homes. The healthy trend does not show any signs of revers- ing itself in the near future.
 Howard M. Thompson, general manager of Home Owners Catalogs, said that he considers it highly significant that the money being spent for building one and two family houses has increased this year and, at the same time, less money has gone into multi-family or apartment houses.
 While many of the houses being built today are speculative, that is built to be sold or rented, a large extra discriminating group orders its homes built especially to fit the individual needs and fancies of the families who will live in them
 Readers of the Waterbury Demo- crat who are planning to build homes for their own occupancy in this area during the next twelve months, at costs of $4,O00 or more may have personal copies of Home Owners Catalogs to guide them in the deliberations of their home planning stage. There is no cost nor obligation involved in writing to F. W. Dodge Corporation, Boston for this book, designed exclusively for home building families. It will be sent postage paid to all who qualify.

NEW INSURANCE. PLAN ADOPTED.
Protection for HOme-Owna CTS Provided in MOrt-
 gage Policy

A plan of mortgage insurance, new form of protection to home owners, is now being offered by the Waterbury Building & Loan Asso- citation, MT. Nichols, secretary of the Waterbury Building & Loan Association announced today.
 Commenting on the protection this plan affords, MT. Nichols stated that mortgage insurance is as logical and as important to carry on a home as fire insurance, in that it provides an even more vital form of protection. "It guarantees" MT. Nichols said, "that the home will be handed down to dependents com- pletely mortgage free if the mort- gagor should fail to live, in which event the remaining balance of the mortgage is paid under the terms of the insurance" Tn adopting this plan for its mortgagors, MT. Nichols said that the officers of the Water- bury Building & Loan Association believe 1t is an important social force in the community, and that it fills 8 long-felt need. He added that mortgage insurance has been the means of saving many thou- sands of homes. The payments that have been made as result of the death of mortgagors in clearing up unpaid mortgage balance have en- abled families to carry on with con- fidence and security during such trying times.
 This practical form of mortgage protection, Mir. Nichols pointed out, can be issued to cover existing or new mortgages and the cost, spread over the period of the mortgage is extremely low.

and wind up by telling them that there would be better picking from the patronage tree soon.
 The rest of the evening would be given over to drinking highballs md dancing. Intimate political dis ussions were taboo at the open neetings.
 But of late, things have changed. The meeting here Friday night proves this contention. There still Ire roll calls, but Joe Talbot has been conspicuous by his absence ince the state convention. And the president, Harold Hall of East Ha- Fen, calls on those present to spill but anything that happens to be Sn their minds. This development is bot working out too well for those Fho control the destinies of the 4OP in this state, as many of the hings said are decidedly "out of Hurn."
 Election Challenged
 About two months ago, a New Haven member questioned the le- ality of the election of the new resident, Seeley Brown, master t the Pomfret school. And the natter was referred to the execu- i've committee for investigationl Ecwever, the matter has been held h multi for the two months and as slated for an airing at Double leach Friday night.
 Seeley Brown forestalled any nfavorable action against him by ppearing in person and addressing he boys and girls there. And it annot be denied that he made a cry favorable personal impression n the boys as well as on the girls, pr he gives every appearance of eing a nice clean-cut young fel- bw who may in time learn some hing about our state politics.
 That the good impression he lade was entirely due to his per- onality was evident, as his talk ould not be termed extraordinary Ie merely told the gathering what opportunities there were to do some ork this year on the absentee vot- rs.
 But Seeley Brown did not come ut of the meeting without a Eretch. He had hardly finished peaking when up rose Edward delowitz of Waterbury and in- ulgeN in a little talk of his own. e opened by telling MT. Seeley rown and the others that it is ell enough to ask the Young HOPs to go out and work but there hust be some incentive to work for, nd that incentive need not be a ourt job.

 Reports that Marshal Goering is out of favor and has been confined to his luxurious home at Karinhall have revived in Washington the story of the British Ambassador last visit to that home before the war broke.
 Ambassador Sir Neville Tender son had gone to see Goering in an effort to pacify him. When the interview was over, Henderson sent the following report to Lord Hali- fax, then Foreign Minister, now Ambassador to Washington: Though I was in a hurry, he insisted on showing me, with much pride, the great structural alterations which he was making in his house at Karinhall and which includes new dining room to hold an incredible number of guests and to be all marble and hung with tapestries.
 "He also produced with pride some drawings of tapestries, most ly representing naked ladies and labeled with the names of the va- rlous virtues. such as Goodness Mercy, Purity. told him that they looked at least pacific, but I failed to see Patience among them"

UNCLE RAYS CORNER '-Jenehiz Khan Narrowly Escaped

Turning back the pages of his
tory, we find a number of CON
uuerors" who have worried the
world. Not the least Of these was
Jenghiz Khan.
Another spelling of the name is
"Ghenghis." In either case the way
10 pronounce it is "jengiz" The
word khan" means lord or
prince
AS a boy, Jenghiz became the
chief Of his tribe in Mongolia: The
honor came to him when he was
only 13 years old
Jenghiz was born in 1852. That
was almost a century after William
the Conqueror invaded England.
The tribe in which he was born
lived in a land made up largely Of
mountains. 1t had a cold climate,
and life was hard for the wandering
Mongols.
The men in the tribe were experts
at riding their sure-footed ponies.
This was to prove an important fact
in the later sweep of conquest.
While Jenghiz was young man,
he led his warriors into battle
against nearby tribes. In these
fights he met success most of the
time, but his main conquests did
not start until after he was 40.
At the age of 40. there came a
time when his power was nearly

AS it was, he escaped death and
gathered new army. Then began
the real conquest of the worlds
largest continent. The Keraits were
beaten down and their lands were
added to those which the Mongol
lord already ruled.
The next years were spent in a
southwestward drive against the
Turks, many of whom then lived in
the center of Asia. Their country
was laid waste.
Another campaign was against
the Chinese in Northern China.
This also was successful and Jen-

jump to five clubs might be a sound
bid if South were an expert, but
North should have recognized his

thought about it, he would have
realized that South would auto

North might have elected to pass
at three no-trump and allow his

Five clubs, of course, cannot be

OAIS TALKS HERE ON BURMA ROAD

Many of the difficulties faced in getting the Chinese to adopt Ameri- can methods of transportation and traffic control on the Burma road were discussed last evening by Har- old c. Davis, member of the com- mission sent to China for that pur- pose, at the First Baptisb-ehu
 MT. Davis, a native of this city who is now vice-president of Con- solidated Motors, Inc, showed col- pred lantern slides of the parts of China he visited during his stay in the East. He told of the Japanese methods conducting bombing raids, using explosive and incendiary bombs in the densely-populated SectionS.
 The commission, Mir. Davis told capacity audience, was finally able b persuade the Chinese to adopt some of their recommendations, and kraf1lc was thus speeded up consid- srably on the Burma road, although she older modes of travel have by no means been entirely displaced.
