MORTGAGE INSURANCE 1
Insurance of home mortgages by
he Federal Housing Administration
nil continue as a result of Presi
Lent Roosevelt's approval of an in
tense of $1,000,000,000 in the amount
authorized. While the- statute: pro
dded a limitation of $3,000,000,000
,n the insurance of home mortgages,
he President was authorized to>m
;rease this to a maximum of $4,000,
>00,000. This, he has done.
BRITISH AVIATORS
The War Department has agreed
;0 permit Britain airmen to attend
he Navigation School for long-range
'lying maintained by Pan-American
Jrways at Miami, Florida. This is
?onsidered a private institution, ah
hough the War Department an
nounced that 850 civilians would be
trained there in long-range flight
iviation. Great Britain is said to be
anxious to train pilots on a large
scale in private American schools.
Army approval of British students
at Miami is conditioned so that they
will not interfere with the Air Corp s
training program now underway in
connection with the school.
Why worry about the possibility
of aerial attacks; more than 35,000
Americans will die on the highways
of the nation during 1941.
