Under the new law, the land bank may lend np to 65 per cent of the normal agricultural value of the farm, whereas since 1917 it has been limited to 50 per cent of the appraised value of the land plus 20 per cent of the perman ent improvements. Land Bank Commissioner loans will be continued for one year from July 1, 1946. They may be made up to 75 per cent of the normal value of the farm. How ever, the contract interest rate of these loans Will be 6 per cent except to veterans who may bor row at 4 per cent in the event the loan is guaranteed under the G.I. Bill of Rights. The contract rate for land bank loans through the association will remain at its pres ent all-time low of 4 per cent. Secretary Bracey said that many of the commissioner loans have been reduced to a point where they can easily be refinanc ed with 4 per cent land bank loans which will give these bor rowers Interest savings of 1 per cent.
