New Realty License
Denied Schlein After
Usurious Loan Case
Renewal of the real estate license
of Maurice I. Schlein, head of the
Federal Finance & Realty Co., 915
New York avenue N.W., has been
refused by the District Real Estate
Commission, it was learned today.
The commission refused to renew
the permit on the ground he was
guilty of making a “usurious” $500
loan to Mrs. Nannie Smith, 1617
Eleventh street N.W., and her two
daughters and then auctioning off
the Maryland property used as se
curity for the loan when they missed
two of their $12-a-month payments.
Purchased for S300.
A representative of his company
purchased the property for $300 at
the auction “for the benefit” of the
broker, the commission found.
District Court already had awarded
damages to the Smiths and said,
in its opinion, the broker had prac
ticed fraud “gross in nature, prac
ticed wilfully and oppressively upon
untutored, trusting victims.”
The transaction involved took
place In 1938, but the case was
not completed until early this year.
Another License Revoked.
At (he same time, it was learned,
the commission has revoked the li
cense of Everett J. Moss, a colored
real estate broker, whose office ad
dress is listed as 225 H street N.E.,
I for failing within a reasonable time
to remit money paid him by Earl
i W. and Lucinda Case as a down pay

Miami Airport to Become
Amelia Earhart Field
By the Associated Press
MIAMI, Fla., Aug. 9.—Miami Mu
nicipal Airport will be renamed
Amelia Earhart Field at dedication
ceremonies here October 26.
The field, used during the war as
a naval base, was the takeoff point
for the famed woman flyer on her
ill-fated round-the-world flight 10
years ago.
Miss Earhart and her navigator,
Fred Noonan, were last heard from
July 2, 1937, when en route from
Lae, New Guinea, to Howland Island
in the Japanese-mandated Pacific
islands.
Highway construction costs in 1946
were 63 per cent above those of 1941.
