A RTLL

FOR AN ACT relating to the grant,
ing of relief in certain cases dur
ing the emergency declared to
exist, from inequitable foreclosure
of mortgages on real estate and
execution sales of real estate and
for postponing certain sales and
for extending the periods Of re-
demption from certain others:
and relating to the jurisdiction
and procedure for such relief and
for the right to possession during
the extended period, and for linn
iting the right to maintain actions
for deficiency judgments.
Whereas, the severe financial and
economic depression existing for
several years past has resulted in
extremely low prices for the prod
ucts of the farms and the factories,
great amount Of unemployment,
and almost complete lack Of credit
for farmers, business men and prop
erty owners and a general and ex-
IRENE stagnation of business, agri-
culture and industry; and
Whereas, a condition Of subnor-
NAL rainfall has existed in the
State of Minnesota for several
years, and this condition has great
ly reduced the total products Of the
farms in Minnesota during the past
two years; and
Whereas, many owners OF real
property, by reason Of said condi-
tons, are unable, and it is believed
will for some time be unable to
meet all payments as they come
due Of taxes, interest and principal
of mortgages on their properties,
and are, therefore, threatened with
loss of such properties through
mortgage foreclosure and judicial
sales thereof; and
Whereas, many such properties
have been and are being bid In at
mortgage foreclosure and execution
sales for prices much below what
is believed to be their real values
and often for much less than the
mortgage or judgment indebted
ness, thus entailing deficiency judg-
ments against the mortgage and
judgment debtors; and
Whereas, it is believed, and the
Legislature of Minnesota hereby
declares its belief, that the condi-
tions existing as hereinbefore set
forth have created an emergency
of such nature that justifies and
validates legislation for the extern
sion of the time of redemption from
mortgage foreclosure and execution
sales and other relief Of a like
character; and
Whereas, the State Of Minnesota
possesses the right under its police
power to declare a state Of emer-
gency to exist; and
Whereas, the inherent and fun
damental purposes of our govern
ment is to safeguard the public
and promote the general welfare
Of the people; and
Whereas, under existing condi-
tions the foreclosure of many real
estate mortgages by advertisement
would prevent fair, open and COM
petitive bidding at the time Of sale
in the manner now contemplated
by law; and
Whereas, it is believed, and tho
Of Minnesota hereby
declares its belief, that the condi-
