California's Democratic delegation led by Rep. Cecil R. King backs three measures to loosen mortgage and savings rules. The plan raises the FHA mortgage purchase cap to 30,000, allows FNMA issues to be bought by the Fed, and raises FDIC insured savings from 10,000 to 15,000. The move follows a Los Angeles conference urged by Gov. Edmund G Brown to steer pension funds into savings institutions funding long mortgages.
