by the government, the maximum
guarantee being $2,0OO.0O.
Counsel for the Veterans Ad-
Iministration are discovering COM
plications due to mortgage laws in
some states. Conferences with bank
representatives have failed to bring
definite understanding there. The
banks are urging that the govern
nnent guarantee be applied to the
first half of losses. that the banks
be required only to stand losses
over and above the government
guarantee.
The Veterans Administration is
holding out for the government
participating in all losses on a
fifty-fifty basis. The intention of
Congress is not altogether clear
though it was the understanding
of many members at the time the
bill was passed that the govern
ment was guaranteeing the banks
against losses up to half the total
loaned.
With the Veterans Administra-
tion assuming a position that all
losses must be shared is possible
that Congress may be asked to
clarity the language of this provi-
sion, and of one or two others
which are troubling government
lawyers.
