LOWEST IN HISTORY OF U. S.
Seattle, March 6 — How an in-
crease as small as one percent in
interest may mean a difference of
ten percent or more in the total
cost of a home, is pointed out by
the Federal Housing Administrat-
ion in support of its contetion
that home financing today is less
costly than ever before.

half percent mortgage insurance

“Few people realize that an ap-
parently trifling difference in in-
terest rates makes a very consid-
erable difference in the final cost
of home ownership”, declared
State Director Jackson. “Rates

The maxium charge which may:

,form of financing are frational,
ranging from six percent down to
:41/2 percent, an inconsequential
ivariation in the opinion of many
‘ borrowers.
“However, a little figure clearly
shows that a difference of only
lone percent in the rate a home
,buyer pays for his money may
mean a difference of ten percent
,or more in the total cost of his
lhome.
Icharge is five percent, which is
[maxium cost under the Federal
lHousing plan. On a monthly
amortized, direct reduction loan
carrying FHA insurance, the bor-
rower will pay $7,920 over a per-
»iod of 20 years.
“With exactly the same kind of
loan, without FHA insurance, and
at six percent interest, he would
lpay $8,604. The $684 difference is
more than 13 percent interest of
would mean an increase of more
than 8% percent in the total even—
tual cost of his home.”
A similar transaction consum-
mated before FHA-insurance mort-
gage were made available through
approved local lending institutions
as follows according to FHA offi-
cials.
First mortgages for $2400 at six
percent, or more, interest; second
mortgages for $1,850 at seven per-
cent, and third mortgages for $750
on which interest might range
from seven to ten percent. Usually
they were written on one—year
notes, which required complete re-
financing, with title search and
accumulating charges, at least
every five years.
In both instances, it was declar-
ed, the down payment is assumed
to be $600. In contrast to multiple
mortgages, high interest rates and
repetition of financing charges, it
was pointed out that a single long
term FHA-insured mortgage may
be completely paid off and the en-
tire $5,000 indebtedness wiped out
with payments averaging less than
a dollar a day, without secondary
1financing or ever renewing the
mortgage loans.

Danger In Bill ,
Before Senate
l
I Tacoma, March 1. e Showdown
on a bill to prohibit dumping of
pulp mill waste into Puget Sound
waters, which pqu men say would
force closure of two plants here
employing 750 men, is expected
when the measure reaches the
:Senate rules committee at Olym-
pm.
That probably will be soon, it
indications that the bill, intro-
Iduced by Sen. H. N. Barney Jack-
Ison, was due to be reported out'
of the fisheries committee with.
a recommendation for passage.
There is no known method of
lmeeting the requirements of the
measure and the St. Regis Kraft
and Rayonier plants in Tacoma
,iwould be forced to close up, the
lpulp men declared. They re-
‘ferred to a situation in Shelton
in which the pulp waste is pump-l
led over a hill, but they explained
'such a method of disposal is im~
possible in Tacoma, that there
is no place to pump it.
Pulp mills throughout the Pu-~
get Sound area which have spent
,many millions on equipment and
{maintain large payrolls, would be
dealt a severe blow should such“
a bill be passed, they asserted.
[These plants are lining up for a
'vigorous fight against the meas-
ure which has received support-
from commercial and sports fish-i
lermen who claimed chemicals from
the mills were destroying fish,
oysters and other shellfish.
Passage of the measure not only
would affect the plants, but the
logging industry, which supplies
lthem and the many hundreds of
persons and small commercial
concerns which the mills support
through their payrolls, it was
pointed out. The state of Wiscon-
sin has been working for 15 to 20‘
years on the disposal problem and
no solution yet has been reached,
the pulp men declare.
Opponents of the measure said
they had not been given proper
consideration, after a hearing be-
fore Jackson’s committee. In-
Isufficient notice of the. hearing
was given to permit response from!
the hundreds who would be ad-
versely affected, they declare.
They are prepared to carry their
fight through the Senate and into
the House if necessary, opponents
Iof the bill assert.

Clement Boudreau of the Shel-
lton Bakery was admitted to the
