TROUBLE WITH A
BANKER

A guy walked into the office
last Monday and accused us Of
writing propaganda" He said
most Of the advice on how TO go
into. business given by this column
20 veterans. depended on the vet
erRn obtaining a CT loan. He said
the advice was n lot Of hoosy be-
cause banks are not making loans
10 tan veterans.
The veteran said he had tried
ut five different banks to get q CT
loan with which to buy u truck and
at each bank he had been turned
down cold.

TO tan veterans.
The veteran said he had tried
at FIVE different banks to get q CT
loan with which to buy u truck and
at each bank he had been turned
down cold.
DATE WITH A BANKER
There was only one thing 10 do,
Joe. We told the veteran we were
from Missouri. He said get your
hat and come with me. Not yet.
We wanted to know u few things.
Did the veteran have a certificate
Of eligibility for loan Yes he had
that. What kind Of trucking bust
ness was he going intoH He didn't
know. Said he might 20 into bust
ness with his father but he had not
made up his mind.
Did he have a bank account
How was his credit ratinRH Mar
ried or singleH Any dependents 7 In
answer to all OF these questions.
the veteran asked US "Whyf" He
Said all that had no connection with
his application for q CT loan be-
cause the Government was backing
II up.
We finally explained to him that
these banking people are pretty
nosey, even II Uncle Sam Is stand
ing behind you. and the veteran
left the Office with a list Of ques-
tons concerning his personal af.
fairs and those Of his family which
he promised to answer and return
to US before we decided 70 visit
another bank.
THE MERCILESS TRUTH
Three days later he again showed
up at the office. In accordance with
our request he had facts and fig.
uraa.
The information showed that the
veteran had Ave years Of army
service, that he was married, had
one dependent, and was permanent
ly employed by the Post Office
Department.
II also showed that his father
had been in the transport business
knowing van) for rs years. that
he was about ready to retire and
had offered 10 turn his business
over to his son II his son showed
initiative enough TO get out and
get himself u new truck.
The old man (who evidently was
q good business mani had sent
along n statement Of how much
income tax he had paid on his bust.
ness last year and made his son
include u statement that he had
approximately S26S TO put into
the business once he got started.
We took all this information and
hxed II up into a simple statement
which In FIRST sergeant's Ian.
RuaEr," amounted to something
like this:
| Mister. I wanna borrow s., 400
want tho money TO buy a nsv
truck. When | get the truck vii
60 into business with my fathal
