New Housing Offering
Is 0versubscribed,
Banks Join Rush
By Donald B. HodIey

Washington members of the
Nationwide dealers group which
was awarded $109.5 million of new
housing authority bonds yester-
day, will be able to I'LL only a
part of thier orders because of
heavy oversubscription of the
issue. it was learned today.
Extent of the oversubScription
will be known after pm. today,
deadline for the placing of dealer
orders. A factor in the strong
demand for the bonds was an
avalanche of orders from mutual
savings banks seeking taX-exempt
bonds as result of the new tax
law.
Washington banks also were
seeking the bonds following a rul-
ing by the District Assessor that
the bonds would be exempt from
the District tax on gross bank
earnings. The ruling was for
warded to the banks by dealers
several days ago, but was not
announced until today.
The dealer group. headed by
Phelps, Fem & Co. included
three Washington investment
houses, Folger. Nolan. Inc. Rob-
ert c. Jones & Co, and Mackall
& Co. 1t outbid banking group
for a large part of the housing
offering and reoffered the bonds
at prices to yield from l per cent
for those due in 1852 to 2.25 per
cent for 1892 maturities. The
bank group headed by Chemical
Bank & Trust Co. was awarded
$44,289. 900 of the bonds.

fident in the store as they are in
q bank" Mr.. Harris declared.
This week also marks the sec
ond anniversary of the company's
Silver Spring store. The response
to the suburban expansion has
been wonderful and rapid prog
ress has been made, said Mr..
Harris.
Mr.. Harris was chairman of the
women's wear group of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers AS
sociation for 20 years, and has
been active in the Kiwanis Club.
j. Robert Harris. jr., who joined
the company in 1888, is vice pres
ident and general manager of all
operations.
ID. c. Suburbs Doubled.
The suburban area around
Washington has more than
doubled in the last 10 years, re-
ported the National Industrial
Conference Board in a study of 80
major metropolitan areas Of the
Nation.
Suburbs of the San Francisco
Oakland area made similar prog
ress, while those of the San Diego
area increased $50 per cent, the
board stated.
The changing composition of
urban development bring with it
a new market structure" the
board commented. "Decentraliza-
ton of shopping facilities is a
corrollary to the central city,
suburb shift. Small independent
stores readily spring up to serve
the local trade, and in recent
years more and more chains and
downtown retailers have opened
branch stores in the outlying Sec
tions. Manufacturers seeking
complete coverage of distribution
outlets may well have to revise
their sales methods"
Taylor Promoted by TWA.
Thomas K. Taylor of Washing
ton has been elected vice presi-
dent of Trans World Airlines,

Victor Borge Makes Difference
Between TeIevision and Radio
By Harry Macarthur

the background noise Of life and
you forget to pay attention.
The conclusions reached by o
man who forgets to listen cannot
be world shaking, of course. but
the situation seems to be some
thing like this. Both radio and
television have Henry Alrdich.
Both have Ted Mack's amateurs,
who are sometimes better un-
heard as well as unseen. Both
have Zone Mans Family" tele-
vision once a week and radio five
times week.
The major difference seems to
be that on television you can see
as well as hear Victor Borge and
this is far better.
Borge's Fan Will Lose
This Weeks Argument
The TV sets illness this past
week is. in fact. going to be the
basis for a considerable argument
about Mr.. Borge next Saturday
night. The outcome can easily
be foretold.
"It's my turn this week." the
head of the household will say.
IT get to watch Sam Levenson."
But the television set wasn't
here last week when it was my
turn to watch Victor Borge," the
answer will be.
Doesn't matter" she will say.
"You have to have system. You
can't make a bargain. then keep
breaking it on technicalities."
"1t's unfair" the argument will
go on weakly.
"You had lunch with Borge,
didn't you? It was last week,
wasn't it?"
We'll, yes, but :"
"You saw him, didn't you?"
We'll, yes, but :"
"All right, you saw Victor Borge
last week and I'm going to see

BIC Shows Ingenuity
In Swinging on Ak
Ingenuity is not the property Of
American broadcasting alone. A
classic example of it displayed by
the guiding geniuses of England's
BIC is reported by William Nc
Gaf1in, of the Chicago Daily News
foreign service Seems that, for
reasons best known to itself, BIC
wanted to take a program called
'Dick Barton: Special Agent" off
the air.
1t had been on for six years,
however, and was a popular pro-
gram. It couldn't just be dropped
abruptly. Ingenuity was called
for.
So, on March 80, Dick Barton's
admirers gathered around their
radios and discovered that he was
an army reservist, had received
his Gallup papers and had inad-
vertently torn them up. The cpl
sode ended and the announcer
came on with the regular teaser
question. "Can Dick. stick the fatal
paper together again?" he asked
dramatically.
Suspense music flared, faded
and the announcer came back to
say, "You can be sure he can.
So. good-by to Dick Barton: Spe-
cial Agent"
