to create an urban development bank lo provide low interest loans for financially troubled cities and businesses willing to locate in cities UPI learned today Administration sources said the concept of an Urbank is still under study and could be scrapped if President Carter deckles it is not needed But they called it unlikely that planning would have advanced to this point without active interest at the White House proposals the sources said probably will include provisions for a rural development bank to gain the widest possible support in the administration and Congress UPI learned the Urbank would provide loans to cities at 1 per cent above the federal government's borrowing costs now less than 5 per cent It also would provide guarantees to enable shaky cities lo raise money in bond markets without paying premium prices loans to businesses willing to locate and provide jobs in depressed cities Federal backing of pal bonds to free a city to raise more money in public markets An option for cities lo offer taxable bonds in exchange for a 35 per cent subsidy from the Treasury on the federal taxable income Municipal bonds now arc lax exempt Urbank is little more than a concept now but details are being worked out by a team by Treasury Secretary Michael Other members come from the White House the Office of ment and Budget and the Treasury Department Administration

have the forum then wait until three weeks later to announce the said John executive tor of the Conference of Mayors majors were among the first lo support Urbank concept Sources in he administration
