VALUE OF PLAN APPROVED

4 NNUAL tax bill day will place no strain on the
"A budgets Of 100000 American families who
have financed their homes under the Federal
Housing Administration insured mortgage SyS-
TEN.
The FILA provides that taxes be paid in month
ly installmentS along with payments for mortgage
interest and principal, in a manner comparable to
monthly settlement of telephone utility, or other
household bills.
In establishing this system Of meeting tax
payments monthly, the Federal Housing Admin
iStration recognized that any hazard to the Sc
curity Of home ownership must be eliminated
wherever possible. Delinquent taxes were felt
to present a hazard because home buyers some
times find it impossible and always inconVenient
to produce substantial lump sums for tax pay
mentS each year.
This requirement for monthly tax payment
accounts for the prompt tranSmlttal Of millions
of dollars annually to municipal, county, and state
tax collecting agencies in taxes on homes financed
with FIIA-msurcd mortgages. The figure is III
creasng each year as more homes are financed
under the FILA system.
Payments Of taxes by nstalmcnts under the
FILA plan, has proved workable and of value
Widespread extension Of this system Of paying
taxes would benefit homc-oWncrS, holders OF
mortgages and city, county and state govern
mcntS.

or MAN RIVER AND ALUMINIUM

THE announcement by Secretary Of the Interior
Harold l.. Ickes that another producer would
soon be turning out ingot aluminium at a new
plant in the Pacific Northwest helps to temper the
talk of shortages in this essential light metal. The
plant the Reynolds Metals Company will cstab-
lish within the Bonneville Grand Couee territory
is their second aluminium producing unit, the first
being located at Lister, Alabama, in the Muscle
Shoals district. Both plants are expected to be
in production before summer.
Recent allotments Of power IN the IVA ter
litOry and the Bonneville district show the tre-
mendous power loads required for the production
of aluminium. Aluminium plants have been con-
sidered for many other sections Of the country
but locations have not been available because Of
lack Of power supply. All of which leads to ap-
probation of help from the enormous hydrocectric
facilities in the Tennessee Valley and on the Co.
lumbia River.
For many years the production Of aluminium
has been largely in the hands Of single company
The entry of the Reynolds Company into this pic
ture is a healthy sign. The fact that Reynolds
was not satisfied with one ingot plant, but pro
poses establishing another shows progressive
spirit, one that can only be counted as an aid tC
the entire defense movement. If there is a short
age of aluminium, albeit this condition is question
ed in some quarters, the sooner new factories be
gin to produce this metal, the better

Federal Board Settles
Rutland Roll Dispute

Rutland, Vt.-Fifteen organizations
of railroad employees won a substan-
tial part of their fight against arbi-
trary wage reductions imposed by the
management of the Rutland Railroad.
An agreement suggested by the spe-
cial mediation board appointed by
President Roosevelt on the eve of a
threatened strike of 1900 Rutland
employees, included pledge by the
railroad to withdraw it's order cut
ting wages by 10 to 80 per cent. Basic
pay rates will be maintained except
as they are increased for lower paid
employees through future minimum
wage rulings under the Federal Fair
Labor Standards Act. In return the
labor organizations which cooperated
in the struggle consented to a volun-
tary deduction of 5 per cent for en-
