II. Fahey, Federal Home Loan Bank
Board chairman called upon lend.
ing institutions today TO try to
avoid "a repetition OF the real es-
tate excesses which preceded 1929. '
lie said signs OF a recurrence OF
speculative building already bad
appeared.
Particularly under present con.
ditions.' Fahey said in a statement
we should not forget that extreme
boom periods in home and building
construction are inevitably followed
by depressed conditions and that
changes in the real estate cycle are
usually much more severe than in
general business"
He added that there was evidence
of the apparent renewal OF Jerry
building OF homes. such as occurred
in the boom days OF 1922-1929 4"
Lending institutions can prevent
shoddy construction OF homes by
examining contracts and making
regular inspections during the build
ing period. Fahey said.
Economists of the Home Loan
Bank Board reported that home con.
struction costs rose IL per cent
from December to January. and thar
costs had increased by SIS per cent
during 1910. reaching 1898 per cent
of the l935-l939 average. The board
said that labor costs rose l0.1 per
cent last year and materials IN
creased 81 per cent.

Funds Sought
For Schools in
Defense Areas
Large Number of
Pupils Shifted


Washington, Mar. SAP More
than a quarter million children will
have 20 change schools because Of
population movements resulting
from the defense program. Army
and Navy authorities said today
in asking Congress for $115,000,000
to help local school boards meet
the problem.
A survey made by the Federal
Commission OF Education and &C
cepted by the War and Navy De-
partments found that schooling
must be provided for 10000 chill
dren who now live or will reside
soon at Army posts. naval bases
and other non taxable federal res
orvations.
The survey further estimated
that educational facilities must be
provided for l43.707 other children
not on federal reservations.
Secretary OF War Stimson and
James Forrestal. acting Secretary
OF the Navy, advised the Senate
in communications made public to-
day that the federal government
must assume responsibility since
most school districts would be IN
able to care for the numerous ex-
ira students or pay for required
new buildings, portation and
additional teachers.
They suggested these emergency
school costs be handled in connec-
ton with President Rooseyelt's re-
cent request for an 100000. 900 ap-
preparation TO provide community
facilities in areas affected by the
defense program.

Washington, Mar. SINS The
Senate may pass, tie lease.lend bill
today and thus give President
Roosevelt unprecedented authority
to mobilize the nations financial
and productive resources TO aid
Britain and other nations in their
desperate struggle against totali-
tartan legions.
Sen. Barley. Democratic leader,
who kept the Senate in session Il
hours yesterday in drive for pass
age, said that a final roll call
would be reached before night. He
predicted a two TO one vote for
the bill.
Leaders of the opposition, dis
pirited as a juggernaut OF Admins
tration votes rolled over modifying
amendments, conceded that passage
is inevitable. Only one opposition
leader. Sen. Clark (D) Mo-, would
say that final vote is impossible
today.
The bill must 20 back to the
House after Senate passage be-
cause OF amendments added to It..
House leaders we're ready to speed
action so that the bill can be put
on Mr.. Roosevelt's desk for sigma.
ture early next week.
Declaring that the bill leads the
country into war. opposition lead
ers planned to transfer their battle
to the nation after passage. Sen.
Wheeler CD Mont. and Nye (R) ".
d., declared that a nationwide
campaign will be launched to mobi-
lie public sentiment against war.
Two major. battles were schedul-
ed to be fought out on the Senate
floor today. They are embodied in
the Walsh amendment to prohibit
the President from transferring
naval vessels to Britain without
consent OF Congress and the Taft
substitute to provide 100000, 900
credit to Britain.
In my opinion, my amendment
is necessary in order to preserve
our first line OF defense-our
Navy" said Sen. Walsh Cd Mass.
chairman of the Naval Affairs Com
mittee.
When we undertake to give
away by loan or lease any part Of
our Navy there is no possibility OF
refusing the demands that will be
made until it is all gone.
Without strong Navy it is
agreed that We can be invaded
Every vessel given away is invit-
ing invasion, and making our Sc.
eurity most uncertain"
The Walsh amendment was the
first order OF business before the
Senate. Barley said the Admins
tration would fight it.
The Walsh amendment would
nullify the whole effect of the bill, ="
Barley exclaimed. 81 have talked
with naval officials and they
haven't indicated any sentiment
for it"
In addition to the substitute by
Sen. Taft (R) Ohio. other amend
ments facing the Senate included
one by Sen. Bridges (R) n. H.. to
specify countries to be aided, one
by Sen. Gillette (D) Iowa. to ban
conveys and TO retain sections Of
the Neutrality Act which prohibit
American vessels from entering
combat zones. and the amendment
OF Sen. Russell 3D. Ga. TO make
certain that Mr.. Roosevelt can give
IaIm products 70 foreign nations.
