Loan Firms Probed
On Dummy Sefups
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 1o.-A
Grand Jury in Queens today
starts an investigation Of loan
companies which repeatedly
have charged homeowners up to
IS per cent in interest and
bonuses through the device Of
Incorporating the borrowers.
District Attorney T. Vincent
Quinn says 5000 homeowners
have been charged high interest
and bonuses.
State law does not limit the
amount that a corporation can
be charged for a loan, whereas
laws against excessive interest
apply to loans to individuals.
Mr.. Quinn, who revealed the
investigation yesterday, said
funding corporations" which
have appeared in the last year
give homeowners quick loans
secured by second mortgages.
The dummy corporations"
include homeowners in Nassau
and Suffolk Counties on Long
Island and in Brooklyn as well
as in Queens.
In addition to paying the high
interest, bonuses and service
charges. the homeowners lose
some Federal income tax deduc-
tions because they are incor.
porated.
