which associates musicians
with narcotics.
There never has been a

in any FORM" argues Russ.
"And most of the narcotics I
have come across in my time
have been on the dance floor,
not on the bandstand."
Russ believes that the in
crease in the teen-age dope

erroneous publicity that the
great musicians get that way
on marijuana.
Actually" he explains. ANY

He can't play with top musi-
clans, can't read music proper

FNMA Action
Eases Credit
BY the Associated Press

The Federal National Mort
gage Association has acted to
increase the supply of mortgage
credit. Yesterday it reduced
the stock-purchasing require
ment it imposes on banks and
savings and loan associations.
When the lenders sell mort
cages to the agency, the asso-
citation announced, they need
buy stock in FNMA equivalent
to only 2 per cent of the amount
of the mortgages instead of 3
per cent.
The stock-purchasing require
ment is a device for the gradual
transformation of the FNMA
from a Government corporation
to an agency owned by the
lending agencies which use it.
Many lenders have refrained
from selling the paper to FNMA,
complaining that the 3 per cent
process made the price too costly.
In the new Housing Act Con-
gress authorized FNNdA to re-
duce the requirement to not
less than l per cent.
FNMA announced also it will
issue advance commitments to
buy mortgages at prices "suffi-
cient to facilitate advance plan
ming of home construction" but
sufficiently below the purchase
price to prevent excessive I'M
loading of mortgages by the
holders.

company in over is years.
Since mid-1955 the company
has concentrated on undermining
existing stores. expanding credit
sales. increasing merchandise
carried in stores and popping up
advertising.
The company said it is also
expanding its catalogue depart
ment, with an establishment of
100 new catalogue stores in 1856.
The new policies have in
creased both sales and earnings
for 1855 and the first half of
1856. the company said.

building was $84,187.00O. This
compared with $119,211,000 fol
the same period last year.
In residential building, the
first six months of 1856 showed
$129,595, 900. contrasted with
$153,647 900 for the correspond
ing 1855 period.
Observers blame the tight
money situation for the slump
and restrictions on home buyers
John M. Dickerman, executive
director, National Association OF
Home Builders, 1925 L street
NV. foreSees a minimum drop
of 100000 housing starts over
the Nation this year at a cost
of more than SO billion in the
national economy. He attributed
this largely to credit restrictions
and tight mortgage money.
He cited the requirements of a
minimum 2 per cent down
payment for CT home loans and
the increase in Federal Hous-
ing Administration m i n m u m
down payments from to Z per
cent imposed by the Administra-
ton in July 1855.
Mr.. Dickerman declared: ut
Is only fair to point out that
home building. of all the Ma
tons major industries, is still
subject to credit controls. And it
Is significant that home build
ing has rot shared in the up
surge that the rest of the econo-
my has experienced so far this
year.
THE combination of controls.
together with the general tight
ness of the mortgage market has
had a devastating impact on our
lnduStry-an impact that has
been felt in virtually every COM
munity in the country. The re-
nnoval Of the credit restrictions
would give home building a shot
m the arm that is badly needed
and long overdue"
But public buildings to be con-
structed here in the near future
Will keep some contractors busy.
The Electric Institute of Wash
tngton points out that the Wash
lngton area will benefit from
q half-billion-d dollar construc-
ton program authorized by Con-
greSs before it adjourned. This
includes more than 1855 million
for IL new Government buildings
and more than $145 million in
buildings for the Capitol Hill
area. the institute said. These
buildings will be constructed over
a term of years.

eminent employe, is president of

Bank Board.
Open house for the public will
be IL am to 2 pm. Tuesday.
Great Growth Expected
With Fairfax County develop
Iment forging ahead, Mr.. Taylor
asserted there is a challenging
need for new local loan sources.
He said:
Banks in the area actually
have had to turn down many
loans because applications have
come too fast. The population
experts say Fairfax County is
going to continue to grow from
the current 10000 to about
$4,000 by 1880. According to
the Washington Board of Trade,
Fairfax can expect a big share
of the population growth pre-
dicted for the entire Washing
ton metropolitan area in the
coming years. We believe our
association will be an asset to
such development, and at the
same time give residents of this
area a greater opportunity to
put their money to work right
here at home"
He explained that Herndon
was selected as being far enough
away from Arlington and Alex
andria so as not to compete with
their lending institutions.
