A northwestern cottage that combines colonial form and proportlona with a suggestion of tha
rustic, is this house, built by Homes, Inc. The treatment of the porch and the use of perpendicular
battens on the first floor show the pioneer origin of the design. A further departure from colonial
tradition is the use of double and triple mullloned windows. The blending of these various elements, -however,
forms a pleasing unit, well adapted to its environment.
The plan, too, shows the influence of its colonial inspiration in the central hall and chimney. In
this case, however, the central chimney Is only minor. The main one rises outside the living room wall
much in tho Virginia style. The rest of the first floor arrangement Is planned to suit the site without
regard to precedent.
The number of bedrooms makes this small house suitable for a good-sized family. The location
of one bedroom on the first floor makes the plan flexible, as this room may be either study or library,
if desired. A good feature of the second floor is the free open hall which simplifies the handling of
furniture.
This house was built In the state of Washington at a cost of $3,100, on a $500 lot. It is financed
by an insured Federal Housing mortgage of $2,800, on which monthly payments amount to $21.58. This
Includes Interest, payment on p-"--!r. t, and mortgage Insurance.

Dean Acheson, who resigned as as
sistant secretary of the treasury un
der Roosevelt presumably because he
did not agree with the administra
tion's fiscal policies, and hod been
regarded as a probable Landon sup
porter, has finally come out against
the republican nominee and In favor
of the President. The following let
ter In explanation written to the
Baltimore Sun, will be of Interest to
those who have also disagreed with
the Roosevelt financial policies. Mr.
Acheoon still opposes these princi
ples, but the republican leadership
has so disgusted him, that he along
with scores of other prominent busi
ness and professional men In the
East, has decided the welfare of the
country demands the re-election of
President Roosevelt.
Mr. Acheson's letter follows:
"Since returning to private life, I
have refrained from any public state
ment regarding the policies of the
present administration, and had
hoped to do so through this cam
paign. Recently, however, I have re
ceived Invitations to speak, and re
ports of what my position was sup
posed to be which require a choice
between assuming a false position
through continuing a desired silence
and assuming a false Idea that the
matter Is of any Importance. I ask
your courtesy to avoid the former.
"When your editorial Hating your
position In the campaign appeared, I
found myself In substantial agree-:
ment with It. As the campaign has
progressed, however, I have become
convinced that I should vote for the
re-election of the President and, bar- i
ring some unexpected development, I
shall do so.
Sees Money Stand Voided
Prior to his Minneapolis speech
Mr. Landon had removed from the 1
campaign any Issue of responsible
fiscal management. His advocacy of
balanced budget had been .nter-
sperscd with more specific proposals.
which negatived both.
Nor has Mr. London given proof
of any realistic comprehension of the '
direction which the regulatory luna
tions of government must take in a
crowded and complicated world to
achieve the ends which he, as well as
the President, avows.
"But Mr. Landon In bis Minneapolis
speech and Mr. Hamilton In his chal
lenge to the President to engage in
a Red hunt have decided my vote,
i Joins In Hull Praise
"You have stated far better than I
can the admiration and respect which
the country has unreservedly given to
the sanity, courage and determina
tion of the secretary of state. I be
lieve so strongly that his efforts to
revive International trade are among
the most constructive acts of any
government In the post-war period
that when they are attacked I must
be on his side. I
"To thl Is added my Intense hos-
I tUtty to the attitude of Intolerance
which Mr. Hamilton's speech dis
closes. It seems to me utterly fan
tastic to suggest that 'communism is
In any manner Involved in this cam
paign. It serves only to arouse a
spirit of bigotry which we have ex
perienced before and which always
results in violation of constitutional
guarantees of liberty and makes Im
possible sane consideration of public
questions. I am against any party
which. Inflames this spirit.
"This year, more than In most,
one's vote, however It may be, must
be cast more In hope than in faith.
The hope which accompanies mine Is
that Mr. Hull's liberalism, sanity and
patience may Increasingly shape the
policies of the government.'
Mr. Acheson resigned his treasury
position at the same time the late
William H. Woodin announced bis
resignation as secretary of the treas
ury. Mr. Woodin gave ill health as
his reason, but Mr. Acheson made no
public explanation of his motive.
Mr. Acheson had been appointed by
President Roosevelt !n May, 1933. The
appointment was confirmed by the
senate, although Senator Couzens
(rep., Mich.) argued against it on the
grounds that Mr. Acheson was too
closely Identified with such New York
bankers as J. P. Morgan.
Mr. Acheson has continued his
career as a corporation lawyer since
his retirement from the government
service.
