GOVERNMENT IS CRITICISED FOR BANK ACTIVITIES Federal Land Appraisals Called 'Chiseling’ by Insurance Man. There is a marked tendency for federal land banks to beat first mortgages held by banks and insurance companies, irrespective of the effect on depositors and policyholders, William F. Collins, inspector for the Connecticult Mutual Life Insurance Company, told members of the Indianapolis Home Builders Association at a meeting last night in the Washington. Asserting that he had appealed to Senator Frederick Van Nuys to investigate the condition, Mr. Collins criticised the government ofr “apparently overlooking the fact that our first duty is not to the borrower, but to the policyholder of the insurance company and to the depositor in the bank.” “There is a great deal of talk concerning chiselers,” he continued, “but it is becoming apparent that the government is the worst chiseler of them all through the land bank appraisers. The land banks uniformly grant loans 20 per cent under the amount of the mortgage.” Mr. Collins further explained that if his company were to grant a 20 per cent reduction uniformly in the principal of the margtgage it holds “it would be throwing between $8,500,000 and $9,000,000 into Salt Creek.” The strange inability of a child to learn to read and understand written or printed words, though normal in all other faculties, is known as word blindness and is caused not by defective vision but by a congenital brain lesion.
