EASING OF GI LOANS
 IS URGED BY LEGION

Urging Congress to liberalize the loan provisions of the GI Bill Of Rights, the Juneau Post of the Am erican Legion passed a resolution last night recommending that vet erans be permitted to secure a G1 loan with unpatented land in AL aska.
 The resolution pointed out vet erans desiring to take up homesteads and homesites in Alaska require such loans before they settle on the .and in order to build a home so they can fulfill the residence require ments.
 At present, the law requires that veteran must have a fee simple citle to his land in order to re el- igible for GI loan. It was explained nat less than two percent of the Iel1itory's land has been patented The resolution argued that such lib- slalization of the CT Bill would per- init more rapid settlement of AL aska and would allow more Terri ,orial veterans to receive benefits rom this legislation.
