Rural Credit Law Makes Money Cheap Big Loans At Less Cost
The new Democratic administration farm loan law lowers interest by enabling farmers to form regional cooperative or joint stock associations backed by land. Loans up to 50 percent of land value for up to forty years, with payments in small installments, are designed to cut rates to about 3 to 5 percent. Farmers welcome the change as testimony at Farm Loan Board hearings notes lower existing rates and anticipates broader competition ahead. The National Democratic Committee distributes a pamphlet explaining the law for free.
