D. {. Sales Turnover
OF Homes Increases
Sharply in 1945
BY ROBERT J. LEWIS.

Sales turnover of homes in the
District rose sharply for. the first IL
months of last year in comparison
to the similar period in 1914, an
inquiry to the Federal Home Loan
Bank Administration disclosed to-
day. r
The agency: revealed there were
1886 mortgages of 10000 or less
recorded here during the first III
months OF 1945, in comparison to
10,367 mortgages for the like period
the year before-a rise of 1859.
The total dollar volume rose from
$53,51l 900 in the first II months of
1914 to 71,892,000 for the similar
period last year-a jump of more
than "a per cent, in comparison to
Nationwide rise of 20 per cent.
Higher Prices Indicated.
At the same time, and probably
rejecting increased home prices, the
average mortgage amount rose from
$5,l62 in the 1l-month period in
1914 to $5,828 for the same period
last year.
District financing scared to new
high level in November last year, the
agency revealed, when 1883 mort
cages totaling $7,026,000 were re-
corded, in comparison to 1905
amounting to $6,502,0 900 for October
While not as sharp as in the Dis
trict, a rise in home sales turnover
was reported in cities throughout
the country for the 11-month period
last year over the similar period the
year before.
A high peak of financing in Octo-
Der and November raised the total
for the first IL months of last year
to almost $500, ,00o, ,0O0-or about 20
per cent higher than for the like
period in 1914. the agency said.
Higher Turnover Shown.
In November last year, urban real
estate financing continued at high |
level, when an estimated $500 000, 900
of mortgages recorded in the Nation
slightly exceeded the post-depres-
sion record volume reached in Octo-
ber.
Rejecting largely the present sales
turnover of houses in crowded cities,
the November total was ~ per cent |
higher than the total for November,
1914. High totals for the month
were described as general through |
out the country"
In the activity of different types
OF lenders throughout the Nation,
November mortgage totals showed |
little change from October. Re-
cordings by savings and loan organ
tzations, mutual savings banks and
Individual mortgages declined less
than 2 per cent, while commercial
banks and trust companies, insur-
ance companies and miscellaneous
financial institutions each reported
increases of about 4 per cent,

Street Construction Boom
Seen With Home BuiIdinq

Expansion of home building oper-
ations will mean a record breaking
resumption of city and suburban
street construction, Claude c. Blair,
president of the Paving Brick In
stitute, said today.
During the emergency, when
residential construction was con-
fined principally to war housing,
expenditures for the construction
of municipal pavements fell to the
Lowest point in 80 years, totaling
less than $60,0OO0 900 for the entire
county in 1943," Mr.. Blair said.
with the resumption of home
building on a broad scale, however,
the building of new streets also will
be revived, and within one or two
years should easily surpass the rec
ord of $485 100000 set in 1927, when
home building was at its peak"

Nimitz Denies Atom
.0uimodes Fleet

The United States will need q
fleet mo matter what the outcome
of the atomic bomb tests" Admiral
Chester w. Nimitz yesterday told
members of the National Press Club
Until our entire commerce takes
to the air, we will need ships" he
said.
He pointed out that atomic bombs
were delivered by ship to the B-29s
which tossed them on Japan. Fuel
used by the planes was delivered by
ships and the bases which the
bombers used we're seized by am
|phibious forces.
Engineers have told me that the
way we will be able to use atomic
energy is through our steam boilers
in ships" he said. Atomic energy
will not be used by airplanes in our
lifetime"
Admiral Nimitz declared that by
September l he expects to have q
fleet of 1000 ships manned by 500,-
600 volunteer seamen who will be
in the Regular Navy for at least
two-year enlistments.
Although the fleet is "disintegrat-
ing" because of rapid demobiliza-
ton, Admiral Nimitz declared, he
viewed the situation with "equanim-
ity" for the next few months "be-
cause there are no enemy fleets
|afloat."

Morgan Is Reinsfafed
As UNRRA Director
In Central GERMANY
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
UNRRA completely reversed
itself today on the once-pro-
jected custer of 1t. Gen. Sil
Frederick Morgan as UNRRA
chief in Central Germany fol
remarks he made about the
movement of Jews from Poland
into the United States occupa-
tion zone.
Instead, the British officer was
formally reinstated in his post and
given a public vote OF confidence by
Herbert Lehman, UNRRA director
general.
Mr.. Lehman's action contrasted
sharply with the position taken by
UNRRA on January 4 when public
announcement was made that it
felt obliged to call for his resigna-
ton" because Of his assertions that
a secret Jewish organization was
promoting mass exodus of Polish
Jews from their homeland.
Gen. Morgan touched off the
neated temptest at a news confer
ence January 2 when he said he was
satisfied the influx of Jews into
the United States zone was part of
well organized, positive plan to
get out of Europe"
Lehman Voices Confidence.
His remarks brought a storm of
protests from Jewish organizations
and individuals, and he was accused
of anti-Semitism.
However, Mr.. Lehman announced
yesterday that Gen. Morgan was to
be reinstated and voiced his conf
dence in the generals ability and
religious impartiality.
Simultaneous with Mr.. Lehman's
announcement, it was disclosed at
Bad Toelz, Germany, that a United
States Sd Army report on the flow
OF Polish Jews into the United
States occupation zone asserts that
Zionist groups within Poland are
and financing such
This intelligence report said the
movements were proceeding over

groups were established to prepare

and 1t later was suspended. He flew
