Negro Mortgage
Bankers Meeting
In Chicago
This Weekend
Chicago, 111. Oct. 8 — Nearly
100 of the nation’s leading Ne
gro mortgage bankers will at
tend a one-day workshop clinic
Saturday, October 13 in the
Sherman House, in Chicago, 111.
These men are members of
the United Mortgage Bankers
of America, an organization
which was established in Aug
ust in Dallas, Texas, during the
convention of the National As
sociation of Real Estate Brok
ers.
One of the highlights in
UMBA’s crowded, one - day
agenda is a panel discussion by
three Chicago experts in the
field of mortgage banking.
William I. DeHuszar, vice
president and treasurer of Dov.
enmuehle, Inc., will discuss “The
Profitability of Servicing Ver
sus Brokerage for the Mortgage
Banker.” DeHuszar is author of
“Mortgage Servicing”, the only
book in America dealing with
the subject.
Louis R. Solomon, a financial
expert and partner in Solomon
Cordwell & Associates, the or
ganization which is currently
engaged in erecting the largest
urban renewal development in
the country, better known as the
“Carl Sandburg Homes” on
North LaSalle Street, in Chic
local church, and the world
wide mission of the church with
leaders of these several phases
participating. The session opens
at 8:30 A. M. with the District

message. The Conference will

ago, will discuss methods of
organizing large developments
and procuring the necessary
financing to achieve the ulti
mate objective of democracy in
housing.
John D. Cord well, architect
and partner in Solomon-Cord
well & Associates, will discuss
“The Mortgage Banker’s Role
in Urban Renewal Develop
ments”.
Participants in the workshop
clinic will be guests of the Dear,
born Real Estate Board, whose
president is James R. Lynch.
The DREB has planned an in
teresting social get-together for
the group at the conclusion of
the workshop clinic.
Dempsey J. Travis, president
of the United Mortgage Bank
ers of America, described the
up-coming session as “one c.'
the most important planning
meetings ever held insofar as it
affects the future of Negro
participation in the nation’s
housing market.”
Travis, who is also president
of The Sivart Corporation,
mortgage bankers and of the
Travis Realty Company, born at
414 East 47th Street, Chicago,
declared:
“In the past it has been dif
ficult to attract mortgage bank
ing capital into the Negro mar
ket. The organizations which
could best interpret the need
and the fantastic financial po
tential of this specialized mar
ket lacked organization, and
hense were unable to raise the
large sums of money needed to
effectively service the market
on short notice.
This condition no longer
exists. Right now there are
mortgage banking organizations
which comprise about one
fourth of the membership of
the United Mortgage Bankers
of America who are channeling
more than 200 million dollars in
mortgage money into the Negro
communities of the nation to
day. This is money which form
erly skirted these communities
because the vehicles for intro
ducing the money into the Ne
gro market were lacking.
“This sum is only a small por
tion of what the figure will re
present in the near future as
these mortgage money convoy
ing vehicles become larger and
stronger and as the pace of in
evitable urban renewal is step
ped up. By far the bulk of the
urban renewal projects still on
the drawing boards are slated
