Home Buyers May Get Money From VHMCP Agency Prospective home buyers and builders in small communities and members of minority groups will greatly increase their prospects of obtaining financing for their homes if they make use of the facilities offered by the Voluntary Home Mortgage Credit Program Housing Administrator Albert M Cole said today. “In spite of the tight money market, the new 5 1-4 per cent in terest rate on Federal Housing Ad ministration loans is sufficiently attractive to enable VHMCP to obtain private financing to meet the needs of all qualified borrow ers,” Mr. Cole said. “The availability of funds coup led with the lowered down pay ments on FHA insured mort gages,” Mr. Cole added, “can re sult in quite a spurt in home- building in small communities if prospective home buyers and home builders take advantage of the VHMCP’s facilities.” VHMCP was established by Congress in 1954 to serve as a nationwide mortgage clearing house by bringing together per sons who are unable to obtain FHA or VA financing for homes from local banks with lending in stitutions all over the country who are in the market for such mort gage loans.

TODAY’S PROBLEM: Handling People S ANDRA ELLISON (who has since changed her name), Duluth, Minnesota, married a man who was the product of “old coun try” rearing. This is, he was brought up by a German mother who looked upon the husband as the household boss. Sandra had been brought up in the Southern part of the United States where men regarded wo men as, if not angels, then de scendants of angels. There were clashes. Naturally. Sandra loved her husband, and he was devoted to her, but how was she to take being ordered around, told how to run her house hold and how much money she might spend; instructed in how their children were to be reared? It was her problem, for her hus band did not know there was a problem! She shed many a tear, spent many an unhappy, angry hour, before she arrived at the solution. She found that her husband, busy during the day, tired in the evening, wanted more to appear to be a boss rather than actually be one. So she began presenting the little daily happenings to him for a solution. Adroitly she would work in her own idea of how a matter should be solved, then ask him what he thought. More and more often he came to the conclu sion she hoped for, and by and by he frequently would say, “Well, you can see that yourself.” Fi nally, “You know how to handle that.” Of course there were times when he went against what she wanted, but she says he was right fully half the time and herself wrong. Her most valuable asset was her ability to keep her head, show no anger, or even impatience. Instead she displayed toward him a feeling of trust and confidence in his judgment. They have lived many happy years together and it was a long time after he died that she could bring herself to marry again. When she did, she applied the same principle of trust and confidence to a man of an entirely different type, and again her method work ed. She believes it will with any one, man or women—-or with children. Mrs. Pearson Dies At Fonti Flora Mrs. Lilabel Holland Pearson, 69, died Saturday night at her home, Fonti Flora, in the Rock Creek section of Fairfield County. Mrs. Pearson was born and reared in Blacksburg, a daughter of the late John W. and Lillie Crooks Holland. For a number of Lutheran Men To Hold Retreat In Columbia Mt.
