OFFERING $4,000
Sum Available for Home
Loans on Monthly In
stallment Repayment

Building and loan associations of
Henderson have more than $4,000
available for home loans on the time
honored building and loan plan thro-
ugh which the homes are paid off by
borrowers on a monthly basis, it was
stated today by Joel T. Cheatham,
Building & Loan Association.
This large sum of money is avail
able through the continuous imploy of
cost and investments into the Golfers
of the two local associations, and also
because of the great borrowing power
which the building and loan associa-.
tons have through the Federal Home
Loan Bank system and the CONNER
cial -anks, it was explained.
Mr.. Cheatham said an unusually
large amount of interest has been
shown so far this year by prospective
home owners in building and buying
a home. He said this was due to a
decline in the cost of building, the
continued housing shortage, the In
creasing amount of publicity given 20
the value of home ownership, and the
excellent facilities provided by build
ing and loan for paying for home
instead of perpetually paying rent
The average loan in North Carolina
building and oanaassociations is 81
6U0 for periods ranging from seven
to twelve years, Mr.. Cheatkam point
Ell cut, adding that this plan was IS
pecially adapted to the small home
owner who desires to pay eff his loan
within a reasonable length of time.

dorsed by Henderson business inter

Association of the United States in
an effort to achieve that goal.
Other markets in the belt are also
active in the effort At meeting of

decided that banking, wholesale, re-
tail and manufacturing concerns, of
the city would be enlisted in the bonn
bardment of appeals to the sales com

Crop Is Earlier.

fact that the crop this year is very
much earlier than usual, due to the
early season. Banks and other agen
cies have risked considerable cash in
financing tobacco farmers in the max
ing of the crop, and they are interest
ed to the extent that adequate mar
keting facilities be provided for the
movement of the early production.
Business interests are concerned in
that the greater the cash returns t.
the growers the better will be the con-
dition of their accounts with the pass
ing of the fall marketing and trading
eason. The entire economic structure
of the territory is vitality interested in
the situation, and to that end will CO.
operate in bringing pressure upon the
sales committee to grant the request
for an earlier start of sales in Sep
TENDER.
No specific date is requested for the
opening of sales in the Middle Belt
The appeal is that the date be not
more than two weeks behind Eastern
North Carolina. Information here,
moreover is that Eastern North Car
DINA is asking for an opening date
not more than two weeks behind the
Border Belt markets.
Others Seek Early Start.
