Necessity
BY JOAN DEAN

BEHOLD, shoppers, today we
- embark upon Walk-and-
Carry Week. And you won't be
able TO forget il. because all the
stores are going to join this
crusade for more and better
bundle-carriers amongst the
feminine population.
It's really quite surprising
how many factors enter into
your capacity for toting parcels
around the crowded downtown
streets and on street cars or
buses through snow, over ice
and whatever haZards the
weatherman might dream up.
For instance, do you analyze
the costume you're wearing be-
fore setting off on a grandioSe
shopping spree? Do you ask
yourself if the hat is the one
that always flies off in a breeze
or=the one that hugs your head,
come what may?

in constructing single e-fannily units
is reducing costs materially. Such
economies will help the average
family make It's decision in favor OF
q home of its own, with no neighbors
on top and none alongside except at
a reasonable distance across the
yard" he said.
Mr.. Scott pointed out that such
an era of emphasis on the one
family home would naturally bring
greater demands for financing funds
at the savings and loan associa-
tions and cooperative banks. The
financing Of 200 individual houses is
an easier task than the financing OF
an apartment building with 400
units, and here is another reason
why the odds favor more one-family
homes in the postwar period.
while these local thrift and home
financing institutions have made,
and continue TO make. loans on
rental housing and on multiple
units, their favorite type Of security
is the one-family home, and literally
thousands Of savings and loan as
sociations and cooperative banks
never made loan on any other type
Of real estate" he said. I'VE are
planning for greater flexibility in
the financing operations of our in
stitutions after the war. to include
innovations on types of loans and
types of security accepted, but We
should be prepared for the fact that
there Is going to be more OF this
favorite type Of financing. the one
family home. after the war than
has ever been produced before"

|SingIe-FamiIy Home
Expected TO Lead
Postwar BuiIdinq

The one family home will domi-
nate the building field after the
War, the Home Building and Home
Owning Committee Of the United
States Savings and Loan League
predicted today.
THE pattern of the one-family
home as the ideal place to live was
catching the fancy of the Ameri-
can public in increasing degree In
the years before Pearl Harbor," "
John r. Scott. chairman of the
leagues committee. ssad I'm 1910
the number OF newly-built one
family homes was within 5000 Of
the number added in the great
home building boom year of 1926.
BY 1a41, the non-farm areas saw
more single-family dwellings being
built than in any of the great ex-
pansionist years of the 1920s. That
year $4,000 were put up, IL per
cent more than in the previous
record year, 1925. What Is more
important, this great spree of build
ing one-family units brought 1t
about that they accounted for S5.7
per cent of all the new units Of
shelter provided that year. This
percentage had been steadily
mounting for three years.
Wars Effect on Habits Cited.
Add to this growing preference
of the public for this type of shelter
before we went to war the fact
that the war period has taught
millions of families to do things
for themselves in or around the
home which they didn't do before.
A. striking example is Victory
gardening, which is gathering more
and more devotees.
"A large group of home owners
will remain sold on the idea after
the war, and they will want one
family homes with ground enough to
permit some gardening.
"Altoeether the families on the
home front today are finding nu-
merous things that are needed In
home, when you spend increasing
amounts of time there because OF
gas rationing, and the needs they
recognize are generally those which
a one-family home can supply. On
the battle front and the camp-ln-
this-country front all influences
glorify the one-family home as the
future place to live. The soldiers
wife who follows him from place to
place. living in rented rooms and
apartments, certainly will look on
detached house for her little family
as the one thing she wants most out
of victory.
Finally, most influential in NOV
ing the building boom Of the post
war period in the direction OF the
one-family home is the experimental
ton now being carried on to pro-
duce better housing for less cost.
Even a moderate degree Of success
in these endeavors now common IN
the building industry will mean that
the one family home can be had for
less money than at any time in this
generation.
Costs Are Reduced.

Priority Reanoeaiion
Sci Here II Builders
Fail 10 Start Jobs

Unused priorities on privately
financed projects In the Washington
Metropolitan Area are to be recov-
cred and reallocated to builders who
are ready to 60 ahead with con-
struction work, Milton Fischer, re-
gional representative Of the Ma
tional Housing Agency. said today.
He added this was part OF an effort
to speed war-housing construction
in this vicinity.
Builders who do not submit con-
struction schedule by July Is or who
do not otherwise qualify under the
War Production Board controlled
materials plan will have their prior
tiles revoked, Mr.. Fischer said, and
any builder who is unable to start
construction within the next six
months will be ineligible for these
priorities.
The quota for privately financed
war housing for the metropolitan
Washington district is 81 SOS dwell
ing units. OF these, q little more
than half have been constructed
and approximately Is per cent are
under construction. The remainder
have not yet been started and the
priorities for these dwelling units
are still outstanding.
No new applications for priorities
for building materials have been
taken by the District FILA ONCE for
some time because the original
quota had been exhausted. Thus,
the recapture of many OF these
priorities and their reissuance to
qualifying builders win start con-
struction on many living units.
Controlled materials can be OBJ
tanned now under WPB regulations
only by means of controlled ma
terials plan allotment rather than
through a preference rating order
as heretofore. Such an allotment
can be obtained by filing form
CMP-H-1 with the District FILA Of
fee. This form has been sent to
builders in the local area, he said.
When completed, 1t also authorizes
the builders construction schedule.

SeIf-Tone BroudIoom

The practical character OF tone
on-tone, or self tone, broadloom is
responsible for its growth in popu-
lar favor In these types the pat
tern Is woven in lighter shades of
the body color. At first only two
tones were used. Then a third tone
was added and now even fourth.
Accents of contrasting colors now
add interest and sparkle.
The style is practical because 1t
brings pattern interest and color to
the floor, but not enough to clash
when much color is used in other
furnishings.
