By Jones w. Borton, M. D.

Taking gland extracts-thyroid
pituitary, sex-Would certainly be
an easier way of reducing weight
than eating less food and taking
more exercise. 1t so happens,
however, that only about l in 20
cases of overweight are caused by
underactivity of the glands and
the other 19 are caused simply by
eating more food than the body
needs or can use.
In Europe many physicians re-
port that the gland type of over
weight is very common; in a for
mer article I wrote of the findings
of Drs. D. M. Dunlap and r. M.
M. Lyons who, in the Edinburg
Medical Journal, reported a care
fully studied series of 523 cases
of obesity.
In their series, 8 per cent were
definitely due to the ductless
glands. 81 per cent were not due
to the ductless glands, IS per cent
were a mixed type. This is cer-
tainly different finding from the
American research workers who
think that about per cent of
cases OF overweight are due to
glands, 80 per cent to overeating
only, and about S per cent due
partly to glands and partly to
overeating.
I have written before of the
findings of DR.. L. H. Newburgh,
the famous American nutrition
expert who, in the Journal of the
American Medical Association,
stated: There is only one basic
or underlying cause of overweight;
it is always the result of over
eating. The energy produced by
the amount of food eaten is great

enough. By paying no attention
to the feeling that tells him his
stomach is fun and no more food
is needed, he dulls this feeling
and continues to eat after his
stomach, brain and common
sense have warned him to stop.
The result is overweight.
Another difference in the point
Of view Of European and Ameri-
can nutrition physicians is that
the Europeans consider heredrty
a most important factor in caus-
ing overweight, finding 70 per
cent had overweight parents
whereas while American ply
sicians find heredity a factor. they
think that it is the leisurely

habits and desire for certain
foods in parents that is inherited
by their children. not 50 much
the desire for starch foods.
We are apt to think Of over
weights as being Of q calm. quiet.
Unconditional disposition. but Drs,
Dunlap and Lyons. mentioned
above, state that about so per
cent of their 523 overweights
claimed to be of excitable DISPOSE
ton and nibbled food during
stress or excitement of any kind.
The thought is:
l. That whether overweight is
due to gland disturbance, to in
herited tendency, or just to over
eating, cutting down on the

More Apartments May Approved in c. Area Under Act

| The bill increases the authorize
ton for the Federal National
Mortgage Association to purchase
Government insured and guaran-
teed mortgages to make more
home financing available by an
additional $3.50 million, bringing
the total authorization to s2,750.-
900, 900.
Disposal of War Housing.
Title II of the new bill defines
and revises previous laws and poll
cies relating to the disposal of
Federally-owned housing origi-
nally provided for war workers
Ior for emergency use of veterans
in the postwar period. This re-
lates to about 365.000 units still
in Federal ownership, of which
nearly two-thirds are temporary
structures and under present law.
subject to removal at the end of
1850 unless specifically exempted.
The bill recognizes that continued
use and removal of temporary
housing depends primarily on To-
cal housing conditions and that
sale of permanent housing has
been impeded because of the re-
sulting possible displacement of
present occupants.
Changes in Veterans Loans.
In order to make home loans to
veterans guaranteed by the Vet
erans Administration under the
Servicemen's Readjustment Act
more generally available and ef-
fective. the bill makes the follow
ing changes:
l. Such loans under the new bill
may be guaranteed up to so per
cent. but not more than $7,500,
instead of so per cent and $4,000
as before. Other maximum term is
also extended from Is to 30 years.
This will extend the range of 4
per cent CT home finance to vet
erans.
2. The Veterans Administrator
is directed to prescribe minimum
requirements for new construction
guaranteed by CT home loans.
3. A provision is added to the
CT bill to assist in making the CT
guaranty more workable in the
case of a farm home.
4. The Veterans Administrator
is authorized to make direct loans
up to $3.50 million to veterans,
in an amount of not more than
$4,000 per loan, If the veteran
is unable to obtain private finan-
cling at not more than 4 per cent
interest.
S. In view of the broadened
scope of CT loans. the bill termi-
mates authority for combination
GI-FHA loans now in use. effec-
tive December 81, 1850. or sooner
if the Veterans Administrator
finds it desirable.
Loans to Educational Institutions.
The bill authorizes the Housing
and Home Finance Administrator
to make up to $500 million in
loans to educational institutions
to provide housing for faculty and
students. The loans may be for
10 years and shall bear interest
at not less than the going Federal
rate plus "a of l per cent.

March !. 1850. This is to take carr
of a large number of application
for which previously authorized
funds were not sufficient.
D. Section Gil. Title VI, undel
which FILA is authorized TO insure
construction advances for single
family houses in projects of 2!
units or more. and designed to en-.
courage the use of large-scale
cost-saving site construction tech.
niques. is revised to make it con.
form to other provisions of tn,
bill. The amended provisions au.
thorize FILA to insure 4 per CEN
loans up to $3.50 per unit, or moi
more than IS per cent of value. or
such projects (based on a $1,000
value). with the maximum mort.
gage increased by $3.50 each for 9
third and fourth bedroom. The
amended provisions also provide
for conversion of such mortgages
into individual mortgages under
Section 203 to facilitate individual,
financing as the houses are COM
pleted.
S. FILA Insured Co operative
Housing (Section 213, Title II, Ma
tional Housing Act): This broad
ems and replaces previous author
ity for FHA to insure loans fol
cooperative housing projects, par
ticularly for veterans.
Previously FILA could insure ur
to 80 per cent of cost on a CO.
operative loan. and 95 per cent il
IS per cent of the members were
World War II veterans. The bill
would permit the 80 per cent ratio
to be proportionately increased
per veteran member, up to 95 pei
cent. even though veterans con-
stitute less than IS per cent OF
membership. Thus. a veteran in
any cooperative will benefit from
95 per cent insurance and his
down payment requirement will be
less. The bill permits insurance
up to $500 per unit ($8,55O fol
veterans) based on a $4,000 cost
or, if the need for larger family
units necessitates higher cost
81 300 per room $1,000 for veter.

up to maximum value of $4,000

are: 95 per cent insurance al
AZ per cent interest, up to 30-yeal
term for operative builders insur-
ance is limited to IS per cent ol
value). Previously on a $1,000
value, for example, a buyer had te
pay at least $700 down with 2s
years for the balance; under the
new bill, his down payment could
be $3.50 with 80 years for the re-
mainder.
B. For new homes with three
and four bedrooms. the 95 per cent
insurance. 30-year terms. can be
available for homes valued al
$4,000 and $4,000 respectively
and up to $4,000 and $4,000 in
high-cost areas. Thus, under the
bill. a four-bedroom house in a
high-cost area valued at $4,000
would require a $500 down pay
ment, with the balance payable in
80 years. Previously, such a house
bought under an FHA insured
mortgage would have required
81 800 down payment with Is
years to pay the balance.
c. For new homes valued at
more than the above limits, but
not more than $11. 900, the bill au-
thoriZees the FILA to insure IS
per cent Of the first $1,000 and 10
per cent of the next $4,000, or a
maximum of $9,450 on an $11, 900
house. Previously FILA could in
sure 80 per cent of the first $1,000
and 80 per cent of the next $4,000.
Thus the bill provides more incen-
tive for lower costs, since the down
payment on a $1,000 house would
be $3.50 less than before, but on an
$1,000 house would be $50 more.
D. Houses valued above $11, 900
but not more than $4,000 con-
tinue to be eligible for FILA in
surance on a fiat 80 per cent ratio,
as before.
4. FHA-insured rental housing:
The bill provides a broader type
of permanent FILA insurance for
rental housing to replace the
emergency type insurance under
Title vi, Section 608, which ex-
pired March l, 1850. The new bill
also makes it illegal to discrimi-
nate against children in any
rental housing insured under its
provisions. Under the previous
emergency rental insurance, FHA
could insure up to 80 per cent
($8.i0O on an average value of
$4,000 per unit, with no require
ments as to size or unit. The
amendments contained in the new
bill, as in the single-family (Sec-
ton 203) provisions, provide more
liberal terms for lower-cost and
larger rental units, since a large
part OF rental housing the past
year has been at higher rentals
and for small units unsuited for
most family living. The new bill
provides as follows:
A. FHA insurance of 80 pei
cent up to $1,000 per unit of FHA'.
estimate of costs, and so per cent
on the next $4,000. The insured
loan could thus range from $500
on the first $1,000 to a maximum
OF $500 on a $4,000 unit cost
B. In order to obtain maximum
mortgage loans, any such insured
rental project with an estimated
unit cost of more than $1,000 must
have an average size of not less
than Az rooms per unit (2-bed-
room average), so that any eff
cheney or one-bedroom units must
be fully offset by three or four
bedroom apartments.
Since rentals approved by FHA
are determined by cost, the bill
thus tends to restrict such insured
projects to lower rents or larger
units than most of those provided
the past year.
c. The bill authorizes an addi-
tional $500 million under the pre-
vious emergency rental insurance
provisions for FILA to process and
Evening star., 1950-04-22

eral loans for housing for students
and faculty where private financ-
ing is not obtainable and thus to
insure educational opportunities
to more people.
A more detailed explanation OF
the provisions of the bill follows:
i Aids to Private Housing.
Title of the bill carries the
main provisions extending and re-
vising Federal aids to privately
built and financed housing. This
Title amends the National Hous-
ing Act with respect to the mort
gage insurance programs of the
Federal Housing Administration
and extends the secondary mort
gage market operations of the
Federal National Mortgage As
sociation. in the RFC. The provi-
sions in brief are:
l. Home repair and moderniza-
ton loans: The bill extends FILA
insurance for this purpose to July
/, 1855 and authorizes up to ST.
250. 900, 900 in outstanding insured
loans, approximately the same
levef at which program had been
operating. Authority for this type
of insurance had expired March
!, 1850.
2. Low-cost homes in outlying
areas: This broadens FHA insur-
ance Of small homes in outlying
and suburban areas to meet the
growing demand for such housing
where normal FILA property re-
quirements are not feasible or nec-
essary. The provision succeeds the
more limited previous insurance
in this field based on a $4,000
maximum loan.
The new section provides: FILA
insurance of 95 per cent of value.
as determined by FILA, for loans
up to $4,750 for owner r-occupants,
but with the FILA Commissioner
authorized to permit increases up
to $500 in high cost areas for
builders the loan limits are $4,25O
to $4,000 with IS per cent insur-
AZ =" of FILA value). Maximum
in rest is per cent with l per
cent maximum insurance prem
ium, terms up to 80 years. COM
pared to 20 years previously.
Important new feature is that
such houses will now be individu-
ally inspected and insured by
FHA. the same as other FILA in
sured homes, and such mortgages
can now be purchased by the
FNMA. This is designed to add
greater security and marketability
to such mortgages and thereby
make funds for such purposes
more generally available.
The bill authorizes FHA, with
the approval of the President, to
insure up to $3.50 million in such
loans at any one time.
Funds for FILA, Title II: The
bill authorizes an additional ST.
250, 100000 in outstanding insured
loans under Title II, of the Ma
tional Housing Act, covering
FHA's principal mortgage insur-
ance operations for sale, rental
and cooperative housing, as ex-
planned in the three following
sections:
3. FILA Insured Owner Built
and Sale Housing: This is the
regular FILA program for to f.
family dwellings which has ac-
counted for a large proportion of
current homebuilding. The bill
provides relatively more liberal
terms for lower-cost and larger
family housing since most of the
moderate-cost housing the past
year has been small-size, two
bedroom units.
The types of FHA insurance
provided under Section 203 are:
A. For new homes valued by
FHA at not more than $7,000-or
up to $4,000 in high-cost areas
II for owner occupancy, the terms
