f ; Since Salem has always enjoyed
the same rates as Portland the in

Philadelphia Group Helps
To Adjust Loans1 for
, General Benefit
How a Philadelphia bnslneas
group found a way to reduce fore
closures on homes Is summarized
in a statement received by Roy H.
Wassam of the Salem credit re
porting 'bureau from the federal
department of commerce.
. The statement points oat that
self Interest demands that com
munities take action to prevent
foreclosures, and shows how the
Joint Welfare committee of the
Philadelphia Real Estate board
found a way to do this, and how
the board helped in one way and
another 85 per cent of 3.500 cases
heard In the past three years.
The committee was set np to
give the public free advice on real
estate and financing problems. It
consists of nine members appoint
ed Jointly by the president of the
real estate board and the presi
dent of the League of Building
and Loan associations. The mem
bers serve without pay.
At Its weekly meeting, the com
mitte heard from 25 to 125 ap
plicants for aid, these including
home owners threatened with
foreclosure because the mortga
gees refuse to renew mortgages
coming due; home owners in dan
ger because, due to unemploy
ment, they are unable to pay tax
es or Interest; and home owners
whose lowered Incomes force them
to seek ways of refinancing their
properties. Some seek redress
from exorbitant financing charges.
A member of the committee
helps each applicant fill ont a
blank giving essential personal
data and information on the prop
erty, and on this basis the com
mittee determines disposition of
the case. Where circumstances
seem to justify such action, it re
quests the mortgagee to cooperate
in working out a solution that will
tide the mortgagor over the emer
gency. As most hpme loans there are
made by building and loan asso
ciations, the committee Is able at
times to recommend a "reinstate
ment" which provides for pay
ment by the lender of. taxes in ar
rears and reduces monthly pay
ments to the borrower to the
amount he would pay if a new
mortgage had been drawn up to
cover the unpaid balance of the
mortgage plus the amount of tax
es and other advances.
HAT
DICE HALL MADE
Under the new management
of F. N. Woodry, a number of
improvements have been made
at the Mellow Moon dance hall

which is a timely arrangement
which makes the hall now practi
cally open air, and the installa
tion of eight oscillating electrle
fans. ,
Bettldes installing the fans and
making the hall practically open
air. Manager Woodry haa made
considerable change on the inter
ior. The orchestra pit has been
remodeled and the interior re
decorated. Woodry announces
that other changes will be made
from time to time to make the
hall more comfortable for the
dancers.
Large crowds have been at
tending the dances since, the hall

SYMPHONY SIX
MILLION
AT GRAND
Ricardo Cortez, Irene Dunn
Featured in Romance of
Gotham's Ghetto
The world's greatest screen
plays and novels are simple stor
ies out of life.
Fannie Hurst believes that this
is true. All of the great books,
all of the great plays, have been
based on this formula.
Bearing this In mind. Miss
Hurst wrote a story of the Amer
ican ghetto and called.lt "Sym-
pnony or six Million.
Now, as a picture, this poig
nant story of real people Is show
ing at the Grand theatre, co-fea
turing the RKO-Radlo Pictures'
favorites, Ricardo Cortes and
Irene Dunne.
The part Cortes plays, is that
of a boy of the New York Ghetto
who overcomes his sordid envir
onment to become a famous, sur
geon and minister to the wants
of his people. Rich in sympathy,
the character is human to the
core andji one to bring forth an
inspired performance.
Miss Dunne's role la that of a
teacher who brings to the tots of
the teeming Ghetto the life and
color of the world beyond their
push-cart horizon.
Miss Hurst makes no rnmnrA.
mises in her stories. She writes
the truth, as she sees it, and
paints her characters from life.
Her backgrounds are real.
The film is a literal trnifinn
of the story by Miss Hurst and
maintains the same level of au
thenticity and drama which char
acterizes her works.
