Mr.. Slipher pointed to a
worsening situation in nearby
Maryland where lack Of any
savings regulations has en-
couraged a mushrooming of So
called associations, which do
not follow the normal oper-
ating patterns of established
and sound associations.
A number Of these organiza-
tons are offering as much as
512 and 6 per cent interest on
savings in this area and also
are soliciting savings by mail in
Philadelphia and other cities.
They urge the public to send
money by mail. They are not
insured and are not required to
have any reserves to protect
their accounts.
Industry Is Alarmed
Established and reputable
savings and loan associations
in Maryland and also in the
District of Columbia, most of
which pay 4 per cent after pro-
vision for Federal insurance
and adequate reserves, have be-
come alarmed that the new un-
insured and unregulated as
sociationS may bring disrepute
to the entire industry. A
Statewide drive has started for
legislation that would set up
Maryland regulations compar-
able with other States.
Addressing a regional meet
ing Of the American Savings
and Loan Institute at the
Shoreham Hotel, Mr.. Slipher
predicted that unless Maryland
shows real signs Of enacting
legislation to regulate unin-
sured associations Congress
will consider the possibility of
Federal controls over inter-
state promotions and solicita-
tions.
A previously unknown saw
ings and loan association, which
listed its address as Riverdale.
Nd. started advertising in a
Philadelphia newspaper re-
Gently. 1t offered 6 per cent
for savings and urged readers
to save by mail the easy way.
A large seal resembling the
seal of the Federal Savings and
Loan Insurance Corp. appeared
prominently in the lower right
hand corner Of the ad, but
pointedly there was no mention
Of insurance.

that If housing starts continue

cal fate of Hoffman's property. Here is summary
of Hancock's figures:
Hoffman's home originally costing about ST. 800
has increased to a present value of about S195O0.
Since Hoffman has sold two acres of the original site
for $780, the total value of the property is S7
On the debit SIDE in addition to the $11 500 esti-
mated original investment Hoffman has laid out S4522
in taxes and S1135 in water and sewer assessments
His total expenses therefore, have amounted to
$17157.
Net balance of credits over outgo thus totals
$1O,34S
Of the overall 1869 increase in Hoffman's tax BILL
SIPS is for services not available from governmental
sources in 1934-such water and sewer service and
fire protection.
This leaves increase of about $243 in services
which were in general comparable between the two
years. although in the 1859 services are
much more comprehensive" Hancock said.
Hancock summed up:
Instead of paying rent to Montgomery Coun-
y the increase in the dollar value of his property has
been great that it has been sufficient to pay all of
his taxes and special to pay for the orig
nal cost of his land and the construction of his home
and to leave balance in his favor in of 10000
The fiscal expert argued accordingly, that Hoff-
man "haS been enriched in excess of $4,000 merely
for the courtesy of consentng accept local hospital
ity"
Under the circumstances" he concluded, ut is
very hard to work up sympathetic for Mr. Hoff-
man from economic standpoint"
In final point, Hancock noted that check of
the records showed Hoffman had been dropped from
the voters registration rolls few years ago because
of his failure to exercise his right to vote.
If he is indeed dissatisfied with his treatment by
Montgomery County officials" Hancock noted point
edly ut possibly might do more good to make his
wishes known at the polls (than to take time writing
letters to the editor y"
Somewhat taken aback by all the trouble shown
by Hancock who has been top official here for two
decades, Hoffman commented: my little note caused
quite stir, didn't it." And he added "He even went
to the trouble to see if was registered voter"
Hoffman told reporter his retirement income
from the government is only $145 month. "How is
person with fixed income to cope with the ever
increasing prices" he had asked in his letter.
Hancock in his reply said 'ft is understandable
that person might wish to continue to maintain his
homestead of long standing even though that home
stead becomes too large for his immediate needs and
too great burden upon his income"
And he added: There is a question, however,
as to whether nostalgia sentiment should take prece-
dence over the overall economic situation"

Lafayette Cyclist
Injured Seriously

Francis Stevens, 40, Route /,
Lafayette, was in critical condi-
ton in Lima Memorial hospital
as a result of an accident when
his motorcycle collided head-on
with an auto Saturday night on
State Route So, less than a mile
north of Ada.
The motorist, David Hutson, 20,
127 George street, Findlay, was
headed north on Route SO when
the motorcyclist entered from a
private parking lot. Stevens was
going east at the time and had
turned south when the two met,
head-on.
The cyclist suffered a cerebral
conclusion, a fractured left knee,
compound fracture of the right
lower leg, decorations of the face,
and burns on the face, scalp, left
arm and abdomen.
The impact caused the motor
cycle to catch fire. 1t was de-
molished and Hutson's car was
badly damaged.
