Judgment affirmed, with -costs. (For prior appeal in this action, see 13 A D 2d 543.) To conform the pleadings to the proof, the court on its own motion (Thorne Neale & Co. v. New York Southern Coal Term. Corp., 270 App. *1084Div. 816, affd. 295 N. Y. 977) directs that the amended complaint he further amended as follows: (1) .by adding to its seventh paragraph the allegation that “Thereafter the County Federal Savings and Loan Association requested additional information regarding the income of the plaintiff and the plaintiff complied with such request;” and (2) by excising from its eighth paragraph the following allegations: That thereafter “ the County Federal Savings and Loan Association requested additional information regarding the income of the plaintiff and after the plaintiff complied with such request and furnished all the full and true information required ”. The trial court’s finding that “ defendant designated the lending institution to which to apply for a mortgage loan” is modified to read that “ defendant designated the lending institution to which the plaintiff could apply for and from which he might obtain a mortgage loan.” Ughetta, Acting P.
