Use Certified Seed
In Potato PLANTING
Distributor Urges

Use of certified potato seed as a
means of realizing maximum produc-
tion from fields and gardens of this
area is urged by one of the nations
largest food distributors.
Victory garden leaders in the
u. S. Department of Agriculture
point out that proper planning and
care of the garden can increase
yields as much as 80 per cent, said
R. r. Betz, vice-president in charge
of A g. P Tea Company operations
in this area.
"In the production of no major
food crop is quality seed more inn
portant than in the production of
potatoes. And it is of great import
ance that soil used and labor expend-
ed result in good yields"
Betz said that his company was
embarking on new merchandising
course this year in making available
to stores in this section certified seed
to meet the demands of growers
both large and small.
Warehouses are being stocked now,
he said, adding that the company
has made arrangements to keep suf-
ficient seed on hand to supply the
needs of thousands of victory gard
eners "who buy their seed on OF
near the planting date.
Emphasis this year is on maxi
mum production from the area
planted, he pointed out Experts
agree that any appreciable decrease

Ferguson's statement that "the
veteran should have all the protec-
ton that can be given" In its
ordinary activities, protection" in
the view Of FILA is protection of
white home buyers from "encroach-
ment by Negroes" This is borne
out by statements in the FILA I'm
derwriting Manual as follows:
"Protection from ADVERSE IN
FLUENCES which includes pre-
vention of lower class occupancy
and inharmonious racial groups"
"If a neighborhood is to retain
stability, it is necessary that prop
critics shall continue to be occupied
by the same social and racial
classes"
Prohibition of the occupancy Of
properties except by the race fol-
which they are intended"
mo person of any race other
than the shall use or occupy
any building or any lot except that
this covenant shall not prevent &C.
cupancy by domestic servants of q
different race domiciled with ar
owner or tenant"

biased appraisal is going to do its

FILA Gets TalOns Into
Vets Home Loans
By Harry McAlpin

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA).
The hooked talons of the Federal
Housing Administration, with all
its regulations encouraging extern
sion of restrictive covenants, and
refusal of loans in so-called border
line neighborhoods, have been dug
into home loans to veterans provid-
ed under the CT Bill of Rights.
This fact, according to observers
here, makes the prospects for re-
turning Negro veterans very dark.
The FILA announced last week
that field offices are now accept
ing applications from banks and
lending institutions for home loans
to veterans which will supplement
the $4,000 limit insured under the
CT Bill of Rights by the Veterans
Administration.
In extending this additional serv-
ice, the FILA, however, is placing
itself in position to determine
whether any loan will be made. Ac-
cording to FILA Commissioner
Abner H. Ferguson, FILA insurance
of a home loan makes less likely
"a mistake in the nature of bad
buying or over-buying" on the part
of the veteran.
Sinister implications are seen in
