Solons Reject 5 Per Cent Rate on GI Loans
Washington AP The House Veterans Committee rejected a 5 percent interest rate on veterans home loans, keeping the present 4.4 percent rate. It approved a bill to liberalize home building requirements under the guaranteed direct loan program for veterans in small towns and rural areas. An Adair amendment to raise the rate to 5 percent failed 11-5. Administration support argued higher rates would expand financing for veterans. The panel sent a bill to authorize about 450 million dollars for direct loan activity, including 150 million in new funds through July 25, 1953.
