Real Estate
LoansRaised
to 20 Years

President Eisenhower signed a
bill last week which allows ma
tional banks 10 make 20 year
instead Of 10 year real estate
loans.
The President hao asked for
the legislation. coniending in
his economic report last January
that 'the present Limitation o.
10 years for conveniial mort
cages unnecessarily restricts tho
the availability of home fin.
ancing in some areas"
Limits Set
The bill allows the banks to
make first mortgages loans up 10
Two thirds Of the appraised value
Of city homes and also OF inn
proved farm property.
The loans would have TO be
amortized at an average rate Of
5 per cent year. so that they
would be completely liquidated
in the 20 years.
The old law not only limited
maturities on real estate loans
70 10 years but also fixed 90 per
cent of the appraised value as
the maximum amount of the loan.
The bill changes this ceiling 10
two thirds of the value for 10
year loans, 10 put them on the
same basis as the new 20-year
loans.
Longer Term
II also lenthens from six 70
nine months the permissible
term for residential and farm
construction loans. This. too. was
recommended by the President.
The national banks previously
had the power TO make govern
ment-insured loans on the terms
fixed by the Federal Housing
Administration (FHA) and the)
veterans administration (VA).
These home loans can run for IS
years and can be granted for
much more than two thirds of
the value OF the property.

The second development in
Moscow apparently is designed

across Germany. symbolized the
wartime friendship and inter-
dependence of Paris and London
with Moscow.
Friendship Pacts Broken
During the long battle over
associating Germany with the
Western powers, which began in
late 1850, Russia repeatedly
threatened that if Britain and
France ratified treaties permit
ting that, Russia would break its
friendship treaties with them.
The Soviets are making good on
this threat.
The action leaves the United
States, British and French gov
ernments undisturbed. but the
Russians probably intend to
make an impact on public rather
than on official opinion. 1t is
the kind of action which carries
an implication of greater Soviet
hostility to come.

will not be available until May.
Mr.. Lowe pointed out. The rates
were doubled last year, but the
deadlineTor filing does not come
until next Friday.
|. Only after that will District
officials be able to tell whether
doubling the rates also doubled
the yield-or whether recent in
dictated decreases in District pop
ulation have cut the yield.
One new tax imposed last
year was the l per cent levy on
all grocery sales. It was Sug-
gested by members of Congress
during hearings on the Public
Works Act, and District tax Of
ficials made an overnight esti-
mate of what it might produce
in revenue. Finance Officer
James L. Martin points out that
there is no similar tax in the
country. so he had no depend
able guide as to what it might
yield.
He guessed, therefore, at $3.5
million a year-a figure used
later by District officials when
they laid out the budget on
which they will go to Congress
Thursday.
Later. first returns from the
grocery tax showed a far smaller
yield than Mr.. Martins guess
indicated. BY December, when
the completed budget was on the
verge of going to Congress and
three months of returns were
in on the grocery tax, the esti-
mated yield was cut 81 million
a year--a cut which covered
most of the deficit with which
the budget went to Congress.
