These charges and counter

However, Ashurst obtained from

permit Backus free access to the

Credit Of Government Back
Of Home Building Program
Expects to Put Mcre Than

By SAM BLEDSOE
Acsociated Press Staff Writer
WASHINGTON—(#)—The Rogse.
velt administration plans to place
government credit back of a home
building program which is expect
ed to put more than a billion dol
lars of cautious private capital to
work. : :
Frank C. Walker; director of the
National Emergency Council, said
legislation to carry out the propo
sal probably would be sent to
congress within ten days. )
He told newspapermen the
measure in view would enable the
treasury to guarantee the interest
and perhaps the principal of long
term mortgages that would be is=-
sued on the new homes.
“It has been the fesling for a
jong time,” Walker said, “that the
mortgage market needs support.
The proposal I am outlining is ten
tative but it contemplates estab
lishing requirements for a stand
ard ‘type of mortgage, maturing in
15 or 20 years. All the costs of
the building would be taken care
of by the amgrtized mortgage and
there would be no need for a sec
ond mortgage.
“We have made a survey and
feel that the government could
guarantee the interest and -perhaps
the principal of the mortgages
with little risk to the “treasury.
. “The mortgages will carry low
interest rates, comparatively speak
ing, and we feel they will be un
usually safe investments. We are
attempting to stimulate capitai
goods industries but this is not
a - relief proposition. -It is sound
business, we believe.” ‘
Walker said a survey had con
vinced those who drafted the plan
that banks and lending agencies
would readily furnish money to
contractors for building if the gov«
ernment “insured” the mortgages,
