Building Homes With Atomic Bomb Shelters Ottawa (CP)-- An Ottawa cone tractor is building houses on the assumption they are going to fall down -- suddenly. . The federal government is en- couraging the contractor, F. B. Si- rotek -- and everyone else -- to build such houses, which now are being advertised as having "atomic bomb shelters, built according to department of civil defence speci- fication." . Reporters who were given a "de- monstration" of one of the shelters found nothing particularly atomic about them. However, Col. A. C. Croteau, commandant of the civil defence school here, says they are the sort of thing Canadians should build. The shelter consists of a series of four-by-four wooden supports in one corner of the basement, sur- rounded by sandbags piled to the ceiling. Over the basement wine dow adjoining the shelter is a cone crete platform, open at both ends. That's all there is to it. "We assume," explained Jack Wallace, assistant training officer of civil defence, 'that the building is going to collapse completely. But it won't collapse in this corner, After an all-clear, the family would have a good chance of getting safely out of the debris."

When should a family borrow A family should borrow only when a loan is the best solution to a money problem. For example, to pay old debts, medical expenses, taxes, fuel, education, car or home repairs. Loans for these reasons are not inflationary, for the money is not used to buy goods in short supply or increase indebtedness. SOLVING MONEY PROBLEMS At HFC--Household Finance--we believe a family should borrow only when, by careful planning, the money problem can be re- solved, and the loan repaid in an orderly manner. When a family borrows under these circumstances, it is simply "renting" money on terms it can afford. At HFC you may borrow $50, $250, $500 or more on your signature, without bankable security.
