During the week the Service Aid
Council of Montgomery Selective
Service Board No. pointed out that
by next spring 750 veterans families
would need homes.
Today Chairman Patman of the
House Small Business Committee
said early next week he would in
troduce legislation to grant veterans
priority to obtain building materials
and preference in renting homes.
After talk with President Tru-
man yesterday, Mr.. Patman saio
he believed the country needed some
control on home prices to curb in
f1ation and advocated appointment
OF a GEAR" to handle the proposed
control program.
In another development this week
the Federal Housing Authority an
nounced plan to provide more
advantageous" credit facilities te
builders in move to encourage pro.
duction of moderate priced homes
Acceding to proposals by the
building industry, FILA agreed to
firm commitment" plan of fl
nancing to supplement the present
conditional commitment.
What this boils down to, as ex-
planned by FILA, is that the agency
agrees to insure loans on homes
proposed by builders on the basis
of 80 per cent up to $4,000 in valua-
ton and 60 per cent on the value
between $4,000 and $4,000.
The loans to the builders would
be insured in advance of the builder
having obtained a satisfactory pur-
chaser. Previously, under the con-
ditional commitment plan, FHA
agreed to insure when the builder
found satisfactory purchaser.
Thus, with a firm commitment" "
FILA said, "a builder can more read
lily arrange for loans which he may
need in planning long-range, large
scale operations in the middle
market price range

Canada Have National Capital Like Washington but Its Will Vote

til now has seen fit formally to proclaim
the boundaries of the projected federal
district capital.
Prime Minister King has not only
secured Parliament's Endorsement for
a plan embracing an area of 900 square
miles, but he has assumed direct con-
troll of the administration of the new
capital himself All political parties in
Canada's federal House of Commons
have agreed to his proposals and it is
anticipated that almost unlimited funds
will be placed. at the disposal of Com
mons to proceed at once with develop
ment of one of the largest national
capitals in the world.
1t was we'll known during the war
that Prime Minister Kings government
and the Liberal party of which he has
been leader for more than Is years in
tended, when hostilities came to an end,
to declare the boundaries of the new
capital and by development of the area
on the grand scale, to create work for
considerable numbers of the nations
returning servicemen. 1t Is not surpris-
ing, therefore, to observe that the Prime
Minister and his government have an
nounced the federal district capital as
plan to serve as a national war me-
mortal.
The Federal District Commission
Whether or not the government will
vest the federal district commission with
authority equal to that enjoyed by the
Federal District Commission in Wash
ington remains to be seen. The city of
Ottawa at the present time-while serv-
ing as the seat of the national capital
is simply municipality administered by
a locally elected Mayor and City Council
to whose exchequer the federal govern
ment contributes approximately $780,
900 annually for the upkeep of its gov
ernment buildings. fire and police pro-
lection, water supply and other munich
pal services provided by the city or
the corporation. Beyond that payment
of 100000 the federal government does
not contribute to the city's considerable
tax bill since all federal government
properties have been declared tax-free

Bv Robert J. Lewis.

One of the most significant and senti-
mental institutions in American life
slipped into the spotlight yesterday
when President Truman left the White
House for visit to a country fair at
Caruthersville, Mo
Something was going on out there in
Pemiscot County more American than
baseball, more typical of this land of
ours than the hot dog. For village,
county, State and interstate fairs are
neck-deep in our history and their
place is secure in the stately cavalcade
of our traditions.
Besides all that, fairs are big busi-
ness, with total annual attendance esti-
mated at as high as 100000 persons
in the approximately three-and-a-half-
month fair season from mid-August to
early December No one has ever fig
ured out the total business volume, but
it probably exceeds a billion dollars.
When Fall Comes Around
Thus to millions of persons across
the face of America, the approximately
2250 fairs have the pull of the tide
when fall comes around. State fairs
are the most spectacular, especially in
the Midwest, but the county fairs exert
a magic all their own.
To fans, no fair is quite so wonderful
and exciting as the one they went to
as kids, grew up with and remembered.
