 Also decided upon as means of raising money for the club during the summer months when no meetings will be held was 'traVeling cookie jar" One member will start this by taking baked goods of some kind to an other members s home. She will pay what she thinks they are

Aviu+ion Safety Discussions
D. M. Gretzer

The Office of Aviation Safety THE INSPECTOR
 Back in the days when our Aviation Safety Agents were designated Inspectors" the fol- lowing gem was circulated, but by now, I do not know whom to credit:
 If the Inspector asks to see your certificate, he's insulting. If he takes your word for hav- ing one, he's corrupt
 If he cites viofator, he's showing how tough he can be
 If he gives him another chance, he's showing favoritism. If he labors day and night to enforce the law, he's a tyrant. If he relaxcs. he's shirker and crook.
 If he talks safe and sane aVi- ation, he's maudlin.
 If he acts like a gentleman. he's too easy.
 If he acts firmly, he's unfair and a rascal.
 If he keeps quiet, he's not in terested in his work.
 If he accepts suggestions and advice, he's incompetent
 If he works things out for him self. he's a knoW-it-all.

For Sam Dawsonl

NEW YORK R-You can get
an argument in building circles
today on whether new home starts
in 1852 will top the million mark
for the fourth straight year.
Builders have hit this pace
through the spring - surprisingly,
In view of official estimates six
months ago that the total would
not run much over 100000.
But now some of them have
shifted to a cautious attitude.
In part this may be due to dis.
appointment over the Federal Re-
serve action in lowering slightly
the required down payments on
new houses under Regulation OK"
Many thought such controls should
have been dropped entirely, as the
House Ranking Committee has pro-
posed.
Also a factor are few signs.
including price cuts on older
houses and more trouble in selling
new ones, that actual demand for
the building industry'S output has
Stacked off a bit.
These developments were cited
by George w. Warnecke, New
York building financier, in expires
sing doubt that present volume of
building viii continue through the
rest of the year.
He believes many builders
pushed housing projects in the
early months this year and now
plan to Sit back and see how they
sell, before committing themselves
further.
While Warnecke says there is
ample financing for well planned
homes and apartment buildings in
attractive locations, he points cut
that some large insurance com.
panies and banks have filled their
investment portfolios and now are
doing only replacement business
in mortgages.
Most analysts don't think this
weeks easing of Regulation *"
viii have much effect on the pace
Of building.
They reason that a home buyer
still will have to find lender
willing to issue a mortgage on the
somewhat more liberal terms. And
this may prove difficult.
Along this line, complaints like
this are heard from some builders
Many persCaS loaded themselves
with installment payments for au-
