House panel rejects 4 percent GI loan rate plan
The Veterans Affairs committee in Washington refused to raise the veterans loan rate to 4 percent despite administration requests. It approved up to 150 million dollars for direct home loans to veterans in rural areas and supported using National Service Life Insurance reserves to back GI policyholders. The panel favored keeping mortgage money available and considered government financing builders' programs while noting current GI financing benefits with lower down payments and longer maturities.
