Farm Loan Rules for Veterans to Be Drafted Soon
Secretary Tom Lee of the School Land Commission said regulations for farm loans to state veterans will be drafted in two weeks. He advised the commission to acquire title to land before loans, a practice used in California and Texas to prevent speculation and protect veterans. Oklahoma voters approved the loans via a July constitutional amendment authorizing school land funds to veterans of all wars with loans up to 93 percent of land value and a 3 percent maximum interest. The commission must approve the rules before the program starts.
