This is typical.
Hate! Hate! Hate! Every Ger

No Culture Here.
Recently, before a capacity audi
ence in Prague, he said:
There is more culture in the
poorest home of German peasant
than in all Of the United States.
Americans are the bloodiest sneer
on culture and freedom the world
has ever known.
"They erect great skyscrapers of
steel and concrete; they live on sex
and propagate cross-section Of the
worlds worst examples of hu-
manity"
The average German thinks
Americans are soft" because they
feed ice cream cones and good food
to Nazi prisoners of war.
German prisoners released from
the United States frequently told me
that Americans regard Germans as
"supermen" and treat them as
guests.

told me, "are prisoner of war. You

ITO us, this war is life or death.
ITO you Americans, it is just an

And, of course, as long as your prison

they think you Americans are soft

Soft woods, such as poplar, now

may go into furniture and floors.
The new treatment for poplar, for
example, impregnates the wood with
chemicals that produce resin with

Current Price Rises
Ignored by FILA in
Insuring Mortgages

The Federal Housing Administra-
ton today emphasized that it is not
recognizing inflated market prices
in insuring mortgages on properties.
Commissioner Abner H. Ferguson
declared the FHA's policy has been
to base its valuations on existing
homes on long-term stabilized values
regardless of market fluctuations.
Tn accord with this policy, FILA
field offices are not accepting cur
rent price increases in their valua-
lions of existing home properties in
localities where real estate prices are
now rising rapidly and their valua-
lions are not exceeding estimated
market prices during the last period
of stabilized price levels" Mr.. Fer
guSon said.
He pointed out that despite the
FHA'S refusal to recognize current
price increases in its valuations, the
F'HA's volume of insurance on eX-
listing homes during 1943 showed
little or no change from 1912 levels.
The FHA's valuation procedure is
essential to the economic soundneSs
of the insurance of long term mort
cages under Title II of the National
Housing Act, Mr.. Ferguson said, and
also affords protection to buyers
financing home purchases under the
FILA plan against assuming a mort
gage debt out of line with the long
term value of the property and
hence subject to possible defation
when more normal market condi-
tons return.
He emphasized that the FHA's
valuation policy is not frozen to any
fixed level of prices and recognizes
long-term adjustments in the gen.
eral price level.
Our position is that sound mort
gage practice by lending institutions
and sound mortgage insurance prac-
tice by the FILA must be geared to
the long-term nature of the COM
mitments made" he said. IF mort
gage financing is made available on
the basis of valuations keyed to
short-term price increases, the re-
suit will not only countenance but
also encourage unduly high prices
and the development of a runaway
market"
Another anti-infationary safe
guard in the FHA's insurance pro-
cedureS, Mr.. Ferguson pointed out,
is the rule that where no change
in ownership of an existing property
is involved, an insured mortgage to
reflnance the owners existing debts
shall be limited approximately to
the amount necessary for the re-
financing of existing liens, other OBJ
legations contracted in connection
with the property, repairs, altera-
lions and additions to the real es-
tate and costs incident to the re-
funding operation such as title
search, recording fees and similar
items.

whose demands nobody can be
blamed for not having estimated
correctly.
GOOD GUESS
In order to forecast the gallon
age of fuel that would be needed
the military experts had to guess
how many planes we should have,
Of what types and sizes, and how
many hours each would fly under
what conditions.
American production genius has
turned out more fuel-consump-
ton capacity IN the form OF
planes, than was anticipated. We
have shifted to a larger proper
ton Of bigger planes than any
body could have guessed. Strate-
gic and tactical uses, worked out
through experience, have boosted
fuel demands.
It was necessary to divert
equipment from the the making OF
motor fuel to the making of avia-
ton fuel, in addition to construct
Ing, as fast as manpower and ma
terials permitted, new high-oc-
tame plants so huge and so eff
c!ent that the ldyTen vies with

In spite of this there is a short.

That shortage will continue, in all
probability, at least until the war

ed far abroad over the earth. Those
boys who were brought to Sunday
School and to church have not for
gotten the things they learned here,
Every effort you made to give your
sons and daughters sound religiouG
instruction has been accounted Il1i-
to you as righteousness.
The general rule in the army an(
navy, so far as I can discover, 4
that military sS:vice neither nnakea
nor breaks man. If a man has no
morals and no religion when he goes
into the service he may not acquire
some religious faith along the road.
The chances are he will not. But
those who have moral principles and
religious convictions when they ens
ter the service are likely to have
those same principles and convic.
lions deepened. If am to Judge by
the letters I receive our men attend
services more regularly in the army
than they did when they were home.
And more especially in far countries
and in places of peril and danger,
these services mean more to them

boys have not lost their religion

seems to be that their sense Of spir-
itual need has quickened and deep
ened their interest in the things Of
faith.
I am very sure too that their af-
lection for home and mother has
grown by leaps and bounds. I note
the very frequent expressions Of af-
lection and loyalty to the church.
Again and again men write and re-
call things that happened In this
church in connection with the SUM-

Gus success Of Allied airmen.
The Nazis get by with inferior
fuel because that Is all they have.
They get very good results by using
a fuel injection system similar to
that on Diesel engines, instead Of
the suction carburation which our
aircraft engines can use with our
high octane fuel. But even forced
feed doesn't give the Nazis as good
performance as our fliers obtain
with our superior gasoline.

This, of course, more than justi-
fies the waste involved In the
manufacture Of high octane gaso-

High octane gasoline requires
more crude oil, per gallon Of finish
ed oil, than does motor gasoline.
The amount Of crude oil that
would make six gallons OF gasoline
for our flivvers produces only five
gallons Of fuel for our FortresseS,
Liberators and other war planes.

also, that a major reason for the
