All such applications are made directly through FHA, and while those made by Anaheim builders cannot all be granted, every indication seems to point to this city's getting a fair share of the building to be started soon. John E. McGovern, director of the Southern California district, FHA, has pointed out that most lending institutions of the Southland will now make available FHA-insured loans up to $5,000 for conversion of existing properties to provide additional living quarters for war workers, and also FHA-insured loans up to $2,-500 for essential home maintenance and repairs.

Lions Enjoy Wit And Philosophy of Long Beach Man Combining the happy faculty of being both humorous and serious at one and the same time, Harold Seal, vice principal of the Long Beach junior college, entertained members of the local Lions club last Friday noon as guest speaker. Introduced by Jake Proctor, program chairman for the day, the educator reeled off a series of jokes and funny stories that made the Lions roar with laughter for full twenty minutes before he launched into his subject. Speaking on "The Changing Situation in Which We Find Ourselfs," Prof. Seal gave his own predictions of things that are to come which will affect the economic, political and social structure of this country. "One does not have to go into a trance," he said, "to foretell that we will never go back to any former status. No country can ever go back to any state of accepted tranquility after it has gone through a war. We might as well look forward to fundamental changes that will affect the lives of all of us," he continued. “This is the third great struggle in which the world has been involved. The first was a struggle for religious freedom, the second for political freedom, and this one is for economic and social freedom or equality,” the speaker said. “Following this war there will be fundamental changes, over a period of years, leaning toward a more democratic democracy. It is already inevitable that the workers are going to have a part in shaping their economic life, call it whatever name you use.” All Former Kansans Will Celebrate State Admission Day Saturday, Jan. 29, anniversary of the date when Kansas was admitted to the Union, will be celebrated by the Southland’s “Jayhawkers,” with due ceremony at the annual Admission Day picnic to be held in Bixby park, Long Beach.
