They were reported to have

base to the west and lying IS miles
from Tobruk.
Heavy raids upon Derna were
reported by the Raj; barracks and
"other military tragets' were de-

of bombs. That, too-long and re-

Some Turkish newspapers ex-

garia to resist any Axis demands
that might spread the war, and
suggested that it was for this rea-
son that Col. William ]. Donovan
had gone to Asia.
Informed Bulgarian sources ex-
pressed the belief that Colonel
Donovan had made a point of the
position of the United States as a
friend Of small nations, but that
Bulgaria feels herself too weak for

Industry Eolipsing
Housing Records in
Defense Effort
Many Homes Being
Erected for 81, 500;
33 Per Cent Gain Shown

Centering its efforts on construc-
ton of homes for defense workers,
private industry now is eclipsing all
housing production records of the
last u years and still greater activity
is forecast in the coming months. the
Federal Home Loan Bank Board
declared today.
With a large volume of homes
being erected for sale as low as
$2500 in some sections and under
$4,000 in every section of the coun-
try for the first time, and the great
ma jority of structures costing with
land less than $4,000, home owner
ship is being encouraged among
more families of low and moderate
income than ever before, according
to John H. Fahey, chairman of the
bank board.
The 5000 home financing institu-
tions of the Federal Home Loan
Bank System financed 1922 600, 900
in new construction in defense areas
in the first three months of this
year, an increase of 33 per cent over
construction in the same areas dur
ing the first three months of 1910.
according to Mr.. Fahey This figure
represents $4,000 housing units, he
said.
Private Industry's Job.
Total private construction in de-
tense areas from January through
March is estimated at more than
100000 units, said Mr.. Fahey. With
tne current opening of the conStruc-
ton program in Northern States.
the volume of construction will in
crease for the next several months.
The market for low-cost homes
continues to absorb everything that
can be built in a reasonable price
range for wage earners."
Although large sums OF Govern
ment money are being expended on
constructions of units for sale or
rent TO those engaged in defense
work, the volume is small compared
to that being invested for the pur-
pose by private financing institu-
tlonS Mr.. Fahe1 said.
Private capital should do all the
financing it is able TO do speedily
and safely he declared, so as to
release all possible public funds for
other defense purposes. While tenn
porary construction must, of course.
be financed by the Government and
II also will have 10 go into a portion

big job remains that of private in
dustry.
THE savings and loan associa-
tions of the country, which finance
more American homes than any
other type of institution, have
pledged their full cooperation in
the drive to provide homes for de-
fense workers. Reports to the Fed
eral Home Loan Bank Board show
that they are making home owner
ship available to thousands of fam
lilies forced to remain renters in the
past.
Moreover, recent improvements
in design and materials and better
methods of construction have pro-
vided sounder values than ever be-
fore in the field of low and moderate
cost homes"
For months, the bank board has
been conducting an organization
drive to gear the private home
financing industry to defense hous-
ing needs. Board representatives
held a series of conferences with
me-financing leaders in all parts
of the country. and the presidents

Urban Home Finuncino
Shows II Pct. Gain

A II per cent gain in urban home
financing throughout the Nation in
April as compared with April last
year was reported today by econo-
mlsts Of the Federal Home Loan
Bank Board. The gain during the
f1rst four months of this year over
the same months of last year was
Identical, II per cent.
There were 139,525 home mort
cages amounting to 1898, ,3O5 600
recorded in all non-farm areas bv
oil types of mortgage lenders in
April. In April last year there were
124.721 mortgages valued at S34O,-
1888 1888. During the first four months
OF this year home mortgages num-
bered 480,552 and amounted tn
1851 $685. 900, as compared with
427,025 mortgages amounting to ST.
159,06400 in the same period last
year.
Savings and loan associations. the
largest group of home mortgage
lenders in the Nation, again ac-
counted for about one-third of the
home financing in April.

Loan Banks then met in Washing
ton to clear up details of the pro-
gram. Only recently. the Federal
Savings and Loan Advisory Council,
made up of 18 representatives of
leading home-financing institutions.
held a three-day session in Wash
ington, at which they discussed with
the board and other Government
officials the various problems which
have arisen In the defense effort.
Evening star., 1941-06-07

THE results of private industry's
cooperation in the defense program
already are apparent" said Mr..
Fahey While both builders and
home-flnancing institutions are ex-
ercising caution and restraint to
prevent over-building, it is probabls
that 1941 residential construction,
particularly in the low-cost field,
will surpass all but the peak years Of
the tWenties."
