Associations
Told 10 Hold
Rate Line

Joseph P. McMurray, chair
man of the Federal Home Loan
Bank Board, which supervises
the savings and loan industry,
today asked its member asso-
citation to hold the line on divi-
dends paid to savers.
The request to members, in
Guiding all associations in the
District of Columbia, was made
so that mortgage interest rates
for borrowers would not have to
be raised just as the spring,
1862, building season gets
under way. Mr.. McMurray said.
The parade of higher inter-
est rates planned by CONNER
cial banks has resulted in many
inquiries as to the boards in
terest rate policy, Chairman
McMurray said.
From other sources 1t was
learned savings and loan
leaders here and in other cities
had discussed the possibility
of asking the board to per-
NIT payment of higher rates
for savings accounts Of one
year or longer. Commercial
banks are permitted to pay
4 per cent on savings and
time deposits of one year or
longer under revised regulations
effective January /.
Industry sources say that this
plan has been rejected for the
most part. on the contention
that it would increase already
strong competition and cause
more problems than before.
"An increase in dividend
rates by savings associations at
this time would inexorably af-
feet home mortgage interest
rates in the months ahead" Mr..
McMurray said. Higher mort
gage costs could conceivably
choke off further expansion in
home building to the detriment
of the economy. This has oc-
Cured in the past and could be
repeated in 1862, particularly
if there is a precipitous rate
increase just as the spring
home building season gets un-
der way"
The chairman said the board
is studying regulations which
would require insured associa- =
tions to amortize income de-
rived from fees and commits
sions more realistically in ac-
cordance with sound account
ing procedures. This will have
the effect of limiting funds from
this source which may be ap-
piled to income in any one year
and thus reduce the applica-
ton of such funds for unwar-
ranted dividend payments" he
added.
Savings and loans have DEM
onStrated that they are a safe
depository for savings and their
record of the last 80 years has
created an image of confidence
and integrity, Mr.. McMurray
declared.
"The basis Of competition
should be this record and the
service performed for the COM
munity, rather than the divi-
Fdend rate" the chairman en-
phaSized. Associations should
determine dividends in terms
of national objectives and in
terms of sound management.
