Home Purchase Loans
Indicate New Peak

The value Of residential real es-
tate property which has changed
hands through the aid Of savings
and loan institutions was raised to
about 5000, ,0oo,o00 during spring
nome purchases. Ralph H. Cake,
president of the United States Saw
1ngs and Loan League, estimated on
the basis Of the average savings and
loan ratio Of loan to cost of prop
erty.
If the present rate Of home e-pur-
chase lending keeps up, 1943 will
chalk up a post-depression high in
the sums which these institutions
have been asked for and have sup
Piled In any one year, he said.
In April $65,088, 900 was loaned to
help in the purchase OF existing
properties, a 13-year high for any
month up to that time. Then came
May with $68, 900, 900 lent by savings
and loan institutions for this pur-
pose
THE record figures are an indi-
cation not only of the increasing in
terest in ownership of real estate
but also OF the higher prices al
which properties are changing
hands today" said Mr.. Cake. Ever
discounting the upward trend ir
money paid for each parcel OF rea,
estate, however. we find that We
have made loans for the purchase OF
more different properties this yeal
than In any similar period since the
1920s. 1t is estimated there were
80 900 such loans"

BY MARGARET NOVEL;.

There is lot of talk about keep
ing home property in good order.
The fact that we are all working
harder than ever makes very little
difference. You and I are supposed
to do those interior painting and
redecorating jobs ourselves.
There is plenty of paint OF all
kinds. There are paint brushes,
even though they may not be as
good as the one we used to get. If
you think you cannot WELD a paint
brush with the proper professional
sweep, you may use a paint roller
which will blot out all your mistakes,
leaving a lovely mat finish. So plan
your week ends from now until it is
time to shovel snow with the idea
that your home is going to stay in
top-notch condition for the dura-
tion.
First Of all-plan to do one room
at a time and strip it for action.
Don't try to get around the furni-
ture or worry about the rugs, the
window shades or any other incum-
brance. Take everything down,
brush the walls and inspect them in
the clearest light you can find.
Next prepare your walls-and
don't rush this part of the operation.
If your walls have more than two
coats of kalsomine, 1t is best to
sponge it of. Warm water, a sponge
and a scrub brush will do this.
Scrub small area at a time,
sponge 1t off with a clean sponge
and let the wall dry overnight be-
fore rekalsomining.
Soak Paper With Warm Water.
If the walls are papered and the
paper must come off, the same
equipment, plus broad -bladed
scraping knife, will do the Job. Soak
the paper with warm water, one
wall at time. BY the time YOU
have finished the wall it will be
ready for scraping.

If the walls are painted, 60 over
any scales with sandpaper. Point
up all cracks with plaster of paris
and sand 1t when dry. Touch up
the cracks with wall primer before
painting, so that the cracks will not
show on the completed surface.
There are any number of new
paints on the market which were
especially designed for the amateur
painter. They are easy to mix, sim
pie to use, and the finished job is
bound to be satisfactory If the direc-
tions are followed.
Kalsomine Is we'll known to all Of
us. 1t is ideal for quick surface
where finger marks or grease spots
are not likely to be a menace. 1t
does no do in the dining room, bath,
kitchen or the halls.
Water paints of the resin emul-
sion or the casein variety are most
popular. They are increasingly
washable after about 80 days. One
of their best attributes is that one
coat does a nice job of coverage.
These give pleasant dull wall fin
ish. This may also be used on wood,
but the surface is more durable
when woodwork is finished with a
semigloss enamel, which is so easily
cleaned.
Use Pigmented Wall Primer.
Flat wall oil paints are we'll known
to all of us. These may be stippled
to give an even finish and though
more trouble to mix and apply have
much longer life.
Pigmented wall primer should be
used under all oil paints. This
comes in white, may be tinted
slightly to match the finish coat and
has the welcome properties of seal
ing porous wall and all mended
cracks and patches and giving the
perfect working surface for the
finish oaint ioh
