STJTE OFFICES SPEED AID TO HOMEOWNERS 37.000 Loan Applications On File at Seven Branches. E Kirk McKinney, state manager of the Home Owners' Loan Corporation in Indiana, announced today that number of loans granted have increased 40 per cent this week over last week, and that before the first of the year, more than 1,000 loans a we°k would be granted in the state. At present time, approximately 37,000 applications are on file in the seven state offices. All of these have been graded and 23,500 are entitled to loans under the Home Owners' Loan Corporation act. To date, 663 loans have been made. McKinney called attention to the small number of his personnel, which under the law is determined by the state population. Ohio, Michigan and Illinois with their larger population,* are operating with five times as much personnel as Indiana, yet this state is in third position as to the number of loans actually granted. Ohio has granted 1.917, Michigan 898. and Indiana 663. Both of the former state setups were in operation three months before the Indiana branch was established on Aug. 16, 1933. Go*d Job Done Here Special ag-mt R R. Remie. one of the twelve district inspectors, here to assst Mr. McKinney in granting "blanket" loans to more than 143 closed and class "B" state banks and building and loan associations, complimented Mr. McKinney upon "the good job" done here. Under Mr. Remie's direction, Mr. McKinney's idea of the "blanket" loans will release approximately $125,000,000 now being held inactive in th? loan associations and banks in Indiana. Co-operation of the state banking department and bankers and loan associations throughout the state has, according to Mr. McKinney, aided greatly in strides already made in furnishing relief to th° small home owners. More than one hundred new applications are being received daily in all the state offices, and now that the period of "education" is over and additional personnel can be hired in the state organization, the granting of the 23,500 applications entitled to relief will be accomplished wtihin the next five months. New Office Opened By the first of the year, both Hammond and the South Bend offices will be granting 100 loans a week, Richmond fiftt and Terre Haute seventy-five loans a week. Evansville and Ft. Wayne branches will increase their loans by that time to 100 a week each, and the main office in Indianapolis will reach more than 500. All loans in the state also must "be approved by the Indianapolis office before grants ran bo made final. In an effort to speed the investigations of applications and resultant detail work, a special subbranch was established today in the Federal building at New Albany, under the Evansville branch. The New Albany sub-branch will supervise all applications from adjacent territory. Leonard Rauscher, Evansville branch manager, will announce the personnel for the New Albany office.

Kill that COLD! Don't Merely Coddle It with Half-Way Measures! A cold is nothing to trifle with! It may end seriously. A cold, being an internal infection, calls for an internal treatment. It also calls for a COLD remedy and not something good for a number of other things as well. Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine is what a cold requires. It is expressly a cold remedy. It is direct and internal—and it does the four things necessary, it opens the bowels. combats the cold germs and fever in the system, relieves the headache and grippy feeling and tones and fortifies the entire system. Anything less than that is taking chances with a cold. Grove's Laxative Bromo Quinine is sold by all druggists. 39c and 50c. Accept no substitute.—Advertisement.

AMERICA BOUND

Perhaps we’ll see Camilla Horn again in some American film. She made her first step westward from Berlin when she arrived in London, to appear in the new British play, "Contraband.” Lily Damita had declined the part, because she thought it was not suitable for her. Miss Horn is shown on her arrival in London.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem Bv W. E. MKENNEY Secretary American Bridge League IHAD another interesting visitor today in the person of that popular Cleveland contract authority, John H. Law, noted for his daring plays and his catlike quicknes in taking advantage of his opponents’ errors. He is quick to recognize the unusual in a hand. During the conversation, I recalled the following hand which he plyaed a few years ago in one one of the national tournaments. East opened the ace of clubs and, as long a,s the damage was done and the king set up in dummy, he continued with the pack. Dummy won the trick with the king. West unblocked, dropping the queen, and Mr. Law in the North discarded the three of hearts. He next led the ace and king

of spades from dummy, which set up West’s jack and nine. It now looked as though the declarer must let West make his jack and nine of spades. However. Mr. Law refused to give up and led the deuce of hearts from dummy. West went right in and won the trick with the ace. non WEST could see that the declarer was going to endeavor to get a coup on him. but there was nothing that he could do about it. So he returned a club and North trumped with the six of spades. North led the king of diamonds and then played the queen of diamonds. overtaking a dummy with the ace. The king of hearts was played next from dummy, followed by a third heart, which North ruffed with the seven of spades. Mr. Law now had managed to get rid of his two excess spades—one when he trumped the club and one when he trumped the heart. He now returned the eight of diamonds and won in dummy w-ith the jack. This left West with nothing but the jack and nine of spades, while North held the ten and eight. The seven of diamonds was returned from dummy. West was forced to ruff, and regardless of which trump he played, the declarer was bound to make his ten of spades, thereby losing onlyone spade trick and making his contract.
