Used Goods Market
Reports Trade Brisk

Families having serviceable home
goods, but desiring new equipment,
would do we'll to investigate the
trade-in possibilities. In many cases
the merchandise turned in will serve
to reduce sharply the payments on
new goods.
With the curtailment of produc-
ton of some home furnishing items
has come new inerest in used
goods. The exchange stores and de-
partments maintained by many fur
niture merchants report a brisk
business exists.
In many cases war workers NOV
ing from one community to an
other have cashed in serviceable
furnishings and after being recon-
ditioned these find new homes very
readily.
Exchange stores also are fine
places to pick up used appliances at
a time when they no longer are
being made.

Also Authorized

The District Government this
week headed the local building pro-
gram, with a permit for $178,800
being granted to erect school on
the north side Of Hayes street be-
tween Kastle and Lowrie places
NE
The school structure is to be. a
one-story brick building. Compile
tion of the building is not expected
before the opening of the fall term.
Construction contracts awarded in
the 81 Eastern States during April
amounted to s303,371 900, according
to the F. w. Dodge Corp. This figure
represented declines of II per cent
from the preceding month and of
80 per cent from April of last wear.
Last months construction total
represented mixed trends. Heavy
engineering contracts, amounting
to $127,723 900, were per cent
ahead of March and 25 per cent
greater than the contract total for
April, 1912. Residential building
contracts, amounting to s79,434, 900,
Increased II per cent over the pre-
ceding month, but declined 81 per
cent from April OF last year.
New Plants Taper OFF.
Heaviest decline was registered In
non-residential building contracts,
due to a drop in the manufacturing
plant contract total from $145,O64,-
600 In April, 1912, to s40,652, 900 last
month. New industrial plant con-
struction has been tapering of since
the peak was reached last Septem-
ber. when the War Production Board
announced that emphasis In 1943
would be on production of war ma
terials rather than construction OF
new facilities. In spite of this cur
tallment, it is generally understood
that there will be continuing needs
for certain specialized types of new
plant facilities.

18th Annual Meetino
Set for This Week
In Cincinnati

The American Institute OF Archi-
tects at It's 18th annual meeting in
Cincinnati this week plan to pre-
pare for postwar reconstruction.
Chapters of the institute will form
committees to work with the build
ing industry in carrying out the
recommendation of the convention
as formulated by the Institutes Ma
tional Committee on Postwar Re
construction.
I'VE are now struggling with
chaotic conditions created by the
mass OF obsolete, obsolescent and
unrelated structures which over
Whelm our cities and discourage the
financing of new buildings on
huge scale" said statement by the
committee.
The situation calls for planning
new construction by areas and dis
trlcts, carried out in cooperation
with Government and civic inter-
ests, to remove the blight from
American towns and cities and to
make them more livable and eff
cient in all respects.
New Methods Sought.
ITO develop this third and per-
haps the largest field of construc-
ton activity, new and improved
and new organizations will
be required. An essential part of
the problem is how to 20 about
creating an enlightened public opin-
ion with respect to the many in
tricate problems involved in the
great task of reconstruction the
group claimed.
The building industry includes
not only those who manufacture
plan and build, but other groups
whose financial and economic in
terests are closely joined to con-
structlon problems. This commit
tee has suggested that there be
created a national organization con-
slstlng OF representatives of all ele-
ments OF the industry, the purpose
OF which would be to consider the
various problems involved and to
arrive at conclusions which would
form basis policy for action in
the entire country"

directors will be held Thursday.

Rise Reported
In Mortgage
Payment Lists
Loan League Cites
8 Pct. Boost for
First Quarter Of '43

Homeoviiers paid back an 8 per
cent larger volume Of their indebt-
edness to savings and building and
loan associations In the first quarter
OF. this year than in the same period
OF, last year, the United States Saw
ings and Loan League reported to-
day. The organization pointed to
an estimated $3.50 900 600 OF repay
ments on the principal OF home
mortgage loans the first three
months Of this year, the largest sum
received on this account since the
1o2os.
This counter -inflationary activity
on the part Of the borrower group
was supplemented by the savings
members in these thrift and home
financing institutions. They in
creased the amount of their hold
1ngs by net Of $118,000,00 in the
same period, it was estimated. Thus
s378,000,000 of the excess purchas-
ing power which is mounting 50
rapidly in the Nation was drawn of
from the channels Of todays spend
Ing by operation Of these local In
stitutions, Morton Bodfish, execu-
tive vice president Of the league,
stated.
Conference Hears Reports.
Reports made at a management
conference conducted by the league
In Chicago this week were basis for
the estimates on money flowing into
the institutions.
Among other conclusions drawn
from the conference were the fol-
lowing:
l. Savings and loan executives
generally believe that new price
levels on real estate brought about
by the past three years increasing
expansion Of the economy will re-
main for some years to come. In
stitutions are increasingly adopting
the practice of more rapid amorti-
zation OF the principal of the loan
during the early years, where the
price OF the property shows obvious
effects OF the inf1ationary process.
Funds Seen Available.
T. Practically no associations ex-
perienced any notable increase in
normal Withdrawals by savers in
March when the income tax had
been expected to cut deeply into
accumulated savings.
Majority opinion was that new
money from savers and accelerated
home repayments will continue to
flow into these associations at at
least the pace so far characteristic
OF 1s43, so that there is no question
OF the availability of sufficient funds
for all the home loan demands they
Will receive this year and for a
substantial increase in the associa-
tions' Government bond portfolios.
