Plans Maturing For Tuberculin Test in Schools
84 Per Cent of Those Who Were Offered The Test Last Year Took It; Constitutes a State Record
Plans for continuing the tuberculin testing of pupils of the local high srhool which were approved by the school board at their September meeting are progresshig very satis- factorUy.
The executive committee of the Northampton County Tuberculin Ei>ciety at a recent meeting decided to sponsor the testing program again this year in view of the very grati- tving response on the part of pupib and patrons to the program last year when 84 per 'ent of those who vere oflered the test took U. This constituted a state record, it was re¬ ported, and because of this apparent desire on the part of the communitv for these tests the Society has agreed to continue the program this year. This information was given by MLss Martha Morkin to Dr. Pratmfelder nnd Miss Orhn secretary of the So¬
ciety at a conference Wedneaday morning. Under the plan, all tenth }ear pupils of ttie senior high school and sU pupils participating in in- ttrscholastlc athletics. footbaU, base> baU, and basketbaU, and girls parti¬ cipating In intramural hockey wlU be eligible for these tests.
tt is planned that tests wlU Le given by locsl physcians during ths f rst week in October with x-ray ex¬ aminations to foUow for positive re- a'tors.
Miss Morkin presents the reasons for these tests to the high school pupils this aftemoon. Miss Orlaa, school nurse, will send letters to the parents of all chUdren in the groups nfcntioned above requesting their ap- proval. It is hoped that an eve.i greater percentage than last year WiU avail themselves of the oppor¬ tunity of receiving this test.
Today's low-cast, long-term flnan?- IM..; foi- homc-bulIdlng makes It p05- <;!lilc to fin.in:e a home with a s.-nal- )er do-.vii payment and at a low.^r interest rate than ever before in hl-story.
Thi.s fact  was brought out today by   local   building   Industry   grouii.s »h3 are coDperatlng in a campaign | to RCI  ihe  fact-s  on home-building i before tlie public. i
Financing costs today in many cases are a.s much as 85 percent le-s j than former financing co.sts. and at j the .-ame time today's house because | of advances in de.sign and con.struc- 1 t-rn offers 25 to 40 jjercent more [ iionie for the money than did the J-.ou.i' of ten or twelve years ago.    '
Prior to the passage of the Nation- t al H'.usiiig Act and the establisliment'. rl llu- time-payment mortage system. I the initial-financing co.si.s of hom': btii'cling ranged from 6 to 15 perceiu of the total value of the hom". It Is p-.int<d out.   Under the oid system two-thirds or more of the homes pur- cha-ed required both flrst and secon.l n.orlyage financing.   On an 80 per¬ cent financing basis, with 20 ijerccn-, down payment, a $5,000 flrst mort¬ gage and a 13.000 second mortgage would have been required on a $10,- 000 house, con.servatlvely .speaking.
Commissions and renewal fees on first mortgages were high and those on second mortgages were higher. Today however, the financing of an go percent single mortgage under th.? PHA plan can be accomplished for about 2^2 percent of the total value of a home. It is estimated that over a 20 year period up to 85 percent ran be saved under the new plan.
The new system of finance features monthly amortisation and a 9 per¬ cent interest rate on the single mort¬ gage. Thu-s at the end of the period for which the mortgage is to run. the home is owned free and clear. and the owner has usually paid no more than he would have paid for rent. Interest rates were higher un¬ der the old system, and the lending Institution did not require amortiza¬ tion, with the result that at the ma-
