Pennsylvania Acts on Loans and Licenses Expanded
A sweep of 1913 Pennsylvania measures tightens lending rules with six percent cap on interest and a one tenth brokerage fee capped to the loan amount. Licenses require a $5,000 surety bond and court exam, while penalties include fines up to $5,000 and imprisonment. The session also amends age verification for liquor purchases, highway funding, and county controller elections. New labor, seed, mattress, and vocational education laws are outlined, detailing penalties and standards for sellers, seed purity, and educational programs.
