I never borrowed a dollar in my
life and usually confine my invaat-
menta to good bonds and Are to-
gtoranM stock*. I, however, waa
severely tempted to take a littb
’flyer' last week. I was offered part
Ct the equity of 83.560.000 tn one of
tne best office buildings in Boston
for leas than two cents on the dol-
lar! The land- and building cost
over 86.0OU.0OO and Is assessed for
about M .000,000 it has a first
mortgage on it for leas than 89,-
000.000. Yet, the property was be-
ing offered, subject to this mort-
gage, on the basis of only 850,000—
a shrinkage of M per cent of what
the original stockholders paid. It Is
true a person might lose all he puts
into si»h a purchase even on this
much-deflated basis. I recognised
it as a rank speculation. But I can-
not forget what my father used to
preach to me here at Gloucester
, about the business wheels con tin-
' ually revolving.
In most of the large cities of this
country similar opportunities for
profit, or l«a exist. It Is Impos-
sible for me to give any advite ap-
plicable to any individual proper-
tie* or cities, but this much I say:

be paid in full when inflation gets
going at high speed Foolish are
those who needlessly sacrifice mort-

unless the money is immediately re-
invested in properly selected stocks
which are reasonably sure to dou-
ble or triple in value.

The War Department lias an-

Specialized Training Reaarve prog-
i ram under which qualified high
i school graduates between 17 and 18
years of age will be granted military
I schoiarshlpe providing for basic
, phase instruction in the Army
Speclllzed Training Program at
selected colleges and universities.
The reserve program will be lim-
ited to those who received qualifying
scores on the preinduction test ad-
ministered last April 2. and to those
who qualify to similar tests to be
given in the future. The next test
is scheduled for early November.
A maximum quota of 25,000 of
throe ASTP reservists ha* been
established by the War Department.
This is in addition to the quota
of 150,000 set for the number of
soldiers participating in the Army
Specialised Training Program at
any one time.
The Army Specialised Training
Reserve Program is aimed to pro-
vide a direct flow of qualified young
men toward Army Specialized
Training prior to their entering
active military duty. There will 1
thus be established a constant re- i
servolr of men with aptitudes and
capacity for college-level training
to meet the needs of the various
arms and services for high-grade
technicians, specialists and candi-
dates for officer training
| To Prepare for Arniy -
The Army will thus provide an
opportunity for men of superior •
aptitude who are not more than I
one year below selective service'1
age. to embark on preparation for
the most advanced military duties
they are qualified to perform.
Instruction In the reserve prog-
ram will begin this summer
Selection of reservists will begin
immediately, with the first group
of ellgibles being chosen from those
who qualified in the preinduction
test administered last April 2 and
who will not have attained their
18th birthday prior to Aug. 15.

were in their judgment of railroad
bonds when they sold them at all-
time low prices.
There is no reason why both the
real estate market and the mort-
gage market should not have their
ups and dewns like stock prices,
commodity prices and even em-
ployment. In fact, when employ-
ment and wages are at an all-time
high—as at present—it is a sure bet
that the tide will turn and run out
sometime after World War II.
Hence, those who now quit peace-
time jobs, just to get more money
at war jobs, are making a big mis-
take Those who qra now taking
losses on mortgages may be mak-
ing simHiir mistakes!
What About Inflation
/ Recently the U. 8. Treasury stat-
ed it spent 178.000.000.000 during
the fiscal year ending June 30.
1043. This is 10 times what it
spend* in peacetime. Two-third*
Of this <856.000,000.000* has been
paid for by printing government
betids. This is little different from
printing ’green backs '. This great
inflation of the currency should
surely make It easier for people to
pay off mortgages during the few
good years following the war if
they will have sense enough to do
so. In the meantime, new hcuses
and new office buildings are not be-
ing built, except for war need*.
This coming inflation is, how-
ever. not a reason for inyestors to
take on more mortgages had much

Investment. They are confined to
mortgages, bonds and commercial
paper. Under these conditions I
feel that—as a rule—it ia a mistake
for banks to take losses on mort-
gages at this time. But, banks
should remember that currency in-
flation usually makes it easier for
borrowers to pay the interest and

this great fishing center fn fact.
I am writing this column in the
house where I was bom at 58 Middle
Street. These annual visits mown
much to me. They not only enable
me to renew old acQualutances, but
I learn much from noting the
changes of the post 50 year*. Both
the sunny and the dark sides ot
the business and social cycles are so
evident in thia old city.
Avoid Doinc as Others Do
It was only a few years ago that
the Gloucester city fathers felt
that Um 1----- “
tor good”; ... .
prosperity would depend upon the
tourist and summer business. To-
day, however, the fish business is
operating at an all-time high ul—
great profita to all enga
in; while many of the
hatels are closed and cottages can
be rented for a song. Yet, the
breezes are as cool; the bathing is
as fine, and the sunsets are as
beautiful as ever. Certainly, thh
is the ideal summer to visit Glou-
cester and similar resorts to get
both rest and attention.
The great change in the local sit-
uation here reminds me of one of
the many wise F '
father used to nay:
business and investments are con-
tinually turning. A few persons
have the courage to get on the
wheel when prices are at the bot-
tom and to get off when at the top.
Most people follow the crowds and
get on the wheel when prices are
at the top and get off when they I
are at the bottom. Those, however, |

‘ ‘ June totaled 10.030, compared with
17,028 In the first half of 1941 and
14.690 in the first half of 1942
Wartime restrictions on speed and
I mileage were credited for most of
' the good showing but public co-
operation also played a major role,
the council asserted
"Reports from all parts of the
I country reflect an increasing
awareness by the public of the
I vital need for accident-free war-
time traffic and a greater accept-
ance by drivers and pedestrians of
their responsibility for avoiding ac- I
cidents as a victory measure," said
Ned H Dearborn, council executive
vice president.
For June alone the traffic toll was
48 per cent below June, 1941, the
largest percentage reduction so far
in the war period. It was 24 per
cent below June 1942 Traffic deaths
last month totaled 1,610. against
3,114 in June, 1941.
