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.
The address of the Region V of
fice, which serves the States of
North Carolina and South Caro
lina, is: Fourth floor, Wilder
Building, Charlotte, N. C. Olin P.
Wearn, executive Secretary, re
ports that 3,079 loans, totaling
over $30,000,000.00, had been plac

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
