Inquiry Urged On High Interest Rates
The State President of the Returned Servicemen’s, Mr. N. D. Wilson, called for a government inquiry into extortionate interest rates charged to ex-servicemen for temporary housing loans. He cited averages from 10 to 14 percent, sometimes up to 26 percent, by Victoria moneylenders. Wilson warned ex-servicemen are being pushed to “finance shake” firms as housing loans dry up and urged more war service funding. He referenced Canberra remarks by Mr Harrison alleging lenders demand up to 6 percent for interim loans for ex-servicemen awaiting war service housing loans.
