More Credit ent
 Terms Monday

WASHINGTON, Oct. IA - R = Considerably tighter credit terms become effective Monday on in stallment purchases of automobiles, furniture, television sets and other major household appliances,
 And they'll hit vastly greater volume of purchases by applying to items costing as little as $50. Curbs applied less than a month ago touched nothing under $100.
 The new tightening up order, issued last night by the Federal Reserve Board, set terms on auto mobile sales as stiff as any applied during World War II. New and used cars and trucks are affected equally.
 The payoff limit will be cut from 21 to Is months, with the cash down payment remaining one-third. That will boost monthly installment pay ments on an $500 car from $57.l5 to $80. excluding carrying charges.
 The minimum down payment on television sets, radios and other appliances will be hiked from Is to 25 percent and the payoff time cut from 18 months to 15
 Other appliances affected: re- frigerators, food freezers, stoves, ranges, dishwashers, ironers, wash- ing machines, clothes differs, sewing machines, vacuum cleaners, air con- ditioners and dehumidifiers, phono- graphs and radios.
 The down payment on furniture and rugs will rise from 10 to 15 percent and payoff limit will shrink from IS months to IS.
 In tightening up on the terms it ordered initially on Sept. IS. the Board said 1t did so because of "up- ward pressures on prices" Both moves were aimed at checking in- flation and saving materials for defense.
