THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

WARNING ISSUED TO UNDESERVING RELIEFJEEKERS Many Home Owners Trying to ‘Crash Gate’ of Federal Aid. By United Press WASHINGTON. Dec. 20. Home owners who are deliberately defaulting in their debts in the hope of “crashing the gate” of federal relief may expect no sympathy from the Home Owners' Loan Corporation, Chairman John H. Faheywarned today. Such applications, he said, are impeding the extension of aid to deserving home owners. Although the number of such cases is not large, their investigation requires the same amount of routine as worthy applications. With more than 600,000 requests for loans now on file, the divisional offices are already far behind in their appraisals and title examinations. Some mortgagors who are well able to pay, the chairman said, have refused to continue payments of interest and principal with a view to compelling the mortgagee to surrender the mortgage in exchange for bonds of the HOLC. Such persons hope thereby to obtain refinancing at the HOLC rate of 5 per cent. The possible effect is to deprive a needy applicant of the aid intended under the act. Volume Is Large The large volume of applicants on behalf of properties ineligible for refinancing under the act also has slowed up the process of getting aid to emergency cases, Mr. Fahey said. Many of these applications are filed in good faith but without understanding of the purposes or scope cf the act, he said. Roughly one-third of all applications thus far considered have been rejected because they fail to qualify. The corporation in its six months of operation has refinanced 19,972 small home mortgages for a total of $57,548,536, or about 2 per cent of its total resources of $2,000,000,000. To determine why some mortgagors, including conservators and liquidators of closed banks, are refusing to exchange their mortgages for bonds, Chairman Fahey has ordered state managers to submit reports on such refusals, together with the mortgagees’ reasons. Agents at Work Agents are now at work in twenty-seven states in the program to free large sums from closed banks through bulk exchanges of mortgages for nondistress mortgages in such amounts as the liquidator desires. Bonds received in exchange can be used as collateral for Reconstruction Finance Corporation loans, enabling payment of dividends to depositors. Home foreclosures during the first ten months of this year are slightly ahead of those in the corresponding period of 1932, studies made by HOLC economists showed. The total for 1933 in the cities surveyed was 179,086 as compared with 176.977 in 1932. During October, 16.388 homes were sold at foreclosure as compared with 16,392 in September.

West had made an overcall of diamonds, which undoubtedly showed him with at least five diamonds. If he held twp spades, the contract was made easily, while if he held no spades the contract was lost. Mr. Baldwin figured further that, if West held a singleton spade, it must be the nine spot or better. ! and if he held one of the four out- | standing high cards, the contract J could be made with a safety play, j Therefore, a small spade was led, West played the nine, and Mr. Baldwin played a small spade from dummy, allowing West's nine to 1 hold. East could not overtake with the ten—otherwise Mr. Baldwin would hold a tenace position with j his king-eight. Therefore, East was forced to play a small spade, and now West had no spade to return. He had to lead a diamond, which Mr. Baldwin trumped in one hand, discarding a spade from the other, and giving his contract of six odd. (Copyright. 1933. by NEA Service. IncA
