vades the market for conventional
home loans as we'll as the CT type"
The Real Estate Association listed
these typical comments from cities:
A New Jersey town: "Our local
institutions feel that they have in
vested all the funds they possibly
can in Veterans Administration
mortgages and are seeking mort
cages bearing a higher interest rate
for dividend purposes"
A California town: Fifty per cent
Of our banks have practically dis

Cash Equity Required.
A Great Lakes city: "Ten per cent
cash equity required on CT long
term amortized mortgages. Twenty
five year term not popular with
financing institutions"
The board said the survey. indi-
Gates the need for a program such
as that embodied In proposal to
the special session of Congress
whereby veterans would have au-
thority for securing low interest rate
money through tax exempt securi-
ties on their own private enterprise
projects.
"Today's mortgage spigot has been
frightened another twist by the fact
that FHA has exhausted its author
lied quota for Title vi loans." the
board commented.
On the question of Title VI loans,
little had developed this week in
Congress. A Senate Banking Com
mittee bill authorizing another
81 900, 100000 for FHA mortgage

The National Association of Real

In 372-city survey of real estate

''even some of the largest cities in

By Betty Trexler

On drab day, many OF us feel
depressed. On bright, sunny days,
our spirits are high, Color affects
our outlook.
If your home is decorated in gay
shades, you'll be much more apt to
feel cheerful than if it has only
dull, vague colors. Yet many Wom-
en- who dress in the gayest of colors
are often scared to death OF using
color in their homes.
In recent years more and more
doctors and dentists Offices and
places of business have been deco
rated in the attractive shades.
Greens, blues and pinks have re-
placed dead-looking beiges and
grays as wall colors. Monotonous,
drab furniture has been replaced
with more colorful pieces.

When it comes to choosing color

guide. If in doubt, consult friend
whose judgment you respect, or a
decorator. But with a little study,
you can't go wrong on your own.

Radiator Valve
Permits Changes
In Room Heating
By HiIson Munsey

Today'S modern, efficient house
wife has repeatedly stated the need
of a device that would control home
heating by rooms so that the room
she was vigorously working in, while
warm and comfortable, would not
be as warm as room one would
just sit and relax in, and in like
manner bedrooms could be kept as
much cooler as desired.
A steam radiator valve which auto
matically controls the temperature
Of each radiator on which it is in
stalled will shortly be placed on the
market. This radically new design
permits room-by room variation in
heat adjusted to the preference of
the occupant. 1t is the first device
to provide the hexibility of zone
heating at low cost.
In appearance this valve is like
other radiator air vents, although
somewhat smaller in size. Etched
on its cylindrical side is a scale of
temperatures ranging from SIS to 80
degrees F. The valve is installed in
place of the ordinary air valve.
Simple Operation.
Operation is simple. The mov-
able indicator is rotated until 1t
points to the desired temperature on
the scale. No tools are needed. There
is no cover or cap to remove. The
temperature setting may be changed
as often as desired. The valve will
automatically discharge air only
when the temperature within the
room falls below the indicated set
ting. This allows steam to enter
the radiator, until. the room tenn
perature has reached the desired
degree of heat. At that point the
thermostat in, the valve keeps the
vent closed. The supply Of steam is
withheld until a drop in room tenn
perature again opens the vent and
the cycle is repeated. ! No steam

THIE restless waters of the seven seas are
il once more stirring with salty yarns of
piracy and salvage. For the trade routes are
open again and the ancient rivalries of mari
time commerce are being renewed. While the
main action concerns the eternal fight for
cargo, sideshows include floating treasure,
like ambergris and buried treasure like bars
of gold locked in s,nken ships strong
room.
In the rich and sultry Netherlands East
Indies, the skipper of an American freighter
recently accused the Dutch of piracy, of
attempting to seize his cargo of quinine and
rubber. Resist with force" cried the old sea
dog to his crew. adding cautiously, Unless
the Dutch get the drop on you"
In the North Atlantic an American YES
sci, ,abandonedafteraco a collision, was board
ed by bold and hardy British crew i'm
search of salvage. A sister ship of the Ameri-
can vessel showed up, its crew climbed aboard
and regained possession after lively confer
ence that banged from bridge to foc'sle.
As the seven seas shift and surge, some of
the ships that sail them are split in half by
hurricanes, others are mysteriously blown to
bits, still others are gutted by fire. Even those
hulks long since buried at the bottom are
being probed by divers in quest of sunken
treasure, for the sea knows no such phrase as
rest in peace" But all the seas unrest, its
violence, tragedies and comedies have one
thing in common - they are all grist for an
amazing mill known as Admiralty Law.
The origins of Admiralty Law can be traced
to seafaring countries of ancient times. The
hazards and fortunes of maritime commerce
have given birth to legal rules that have ship

for example. the law of salvage. Under this
law ship responding to an SOS may be
awarded as much as so per cent of the value
of the rescued vessel - and good freighter
might be worth $3,OOO,OO0.
An example of the tenacity of a salvor is
the case of the Marie Moersk. A Danish
tanker worth $500 1000, she left Curacao in
the Caribbean several years ago bound for the
Canary Islands off the northwest coast of
Africa. She was sailing through balmy tropi-
cal seas when fire broke out in her engine
room. Captain Petersen directed his crew in
battle against the fire, lost ground and gave
the order to abandon ship.

l HE crew lowered boats, pulled away to
safety. But the Marie Maersk refused to die.
The fire roared, sighed, went out. A few hours
later Captain Petersen led his men back
aboard. They found her a pungent mass of
buckled plates and crippled machinery. With
an emergency radio they sent out an SOS.
This SOS was answered IA miles away by
canny old salt named Captain Holmgren,
master of the Eastern Glen. Several hours later,
