DRIVE FOR 60,000,000 MEMBERS

Savings of Investors Is Potential Means of Reducing Home
Costs, League President Declares.
Member bodies of the United States
Building and Loan League will make a
drive to increase their individual mem
bership to a grand total of 60.000,000
1 persons in as short a time as possi

savings of these investors will reduce
home costs for the Nation. Ernest A.
Hale, Boston, president of the league,
declared this week at the convention
of the organization.
The building up of an enormous
fund for home buying purposes will
encourage more people to undertake
home ownership and a great Increase
in the volume of residential construction
would tend to lower costs in this field,
he believes.
“We would like to increase the mem

fit of such a program would be two
fold; People would be encouraged to
iave who perhaps would not do so other
wise, and the savings of such a vast
army, reloaned exclusively for home
buying purposes, would, in the end, tend
to lower costs In this field by releasing
such a flood of money. I am confident
that the savings of this many people
can be reloaned rapidly to other people
anxious to undertake home owming.”
Mr. Hale said that associations
throughout the country now possess
surplus funds, and that “normal con

the country in a very short period of

MECHANICAL AGE OPPRESSES ART,
SAYS REPORT SCORING IDEALS
Prof. Boring of Columbia Uuniversity, However, Looks
for Renaissance in America.
Art Is oppressed In this mechanical
age. Prof. William A. Boring, director
of the School of Architecture of Colum
bia University, declares In his annual
report, made public by President Nicho
las Murray Butler.
“Our ideals are too cheap,” asserts
Prof. Boring, who holds that great ma
terial advantages fall to give rise to
sublime music, great literature or great
art.
Prof. Boring's conclusions are in
agreement with the recently expressed
views of Ignace Paderewski, who be
lieves that the machine age is working
against art, and that genius, and there
fore the creation of great art, is im
possible under the present system of
living.
Prof. Boring, long prominent in the
American Institute of Architects, said,
in discussing his report, that, like Pad
erewski, he looks for the renaissance of
art to take place in America. Like
Paderewski, also, he feels that the hope
of the world is in youth.
“Man's achievement in art reflects his
Ideals of beauty,” Prof. Boring says.
“What visions rule his mind, guide his
hands in his work, give beauty to his
creation, if, in his soul, he sees beauty;
but if he has not a fine ideal of beauty
his work is without charm.
“In this mechanical age w r e are sur
rounded by new Inventions of form
which show function, power and move
ment, forms which amaze and impress
