Veterans Administration
- home loans help veterans sell
their, homes as well as buy
them, but unless a veteran
seller gets a "release of
liability" when a buyerproposes
to assume this GI loanVne might
have problems later on, H.W,
Johnson, Director of the VA
Regional Office cautioned
today. '
VA Loan Guaranty officials
say such a release could save
the veteran considerable dif
ficulty and worry should the
purchaser ever default on the
loan contract.
A veteran should request the
VA office that guaranteed his
home loan for release from
further liability to the govern
ment before he signs the sales
contract. VA may issue such a
release if the loan is current and
the veteran's purchaser- agrees
to assume all of the veteran's
liabilities.
In addition, Johnson pointed
out, the VA must be satisfied the
person who buys the property is
a grood credit risk, and has suf
ficient income to meet the
payments on the GI loan.
Unless a veteran specifically
asks VA for a "release of
liability," and gets it, he still is
responsible for satisfactory
completion of the financial
obligation of the initial GI loan
should the new purchaser fail

Self-Help Spon
sorships are administered by
the Federation in the poverty
stricken areas of Appalachia in
to make the monthly payments.
The veteran may sell his
home to anyone another
veteran, or to any one, who has
never been in military service.
In any case, however, he should
ask for the "release of liability"
from the VA, Johnson said;
If the veteran's purchaser
obtains his own financing to
purchase the veteran's home
instead of assuming the
veteran's GI loan and the GI
loan is thus paid in full at set
tlement, under certain con
ditions the veteran may then
have his loan guaranty
eligibility restored.
"Release of liability" and
restoration of GI home loan
guaranty details are available
at any VA office, or from
veterans service organization
representatives.

that the final date for certifying
crop acreages and land uses is
June 20, 1972. They should also
remind them that as soon as the
crops have been planted it will

the crop acreages in order to

American agriculture has for

followed. Set-aside land must be
designated and certified by
June 20, 1972.
Producers are cautioned that
no changes are allowed after
they have certified compliance.
A farmer certifies that he has
set aside the acreage and has
complied and will continue to
comply with set-aside rules.
After set-aside is designated
and certified by a producer, his
farm may be spot-checked at
any time for compliance. If the
farm is not in compliance, the
producer may lose some or all
of his program payment.
FARM VISITS HAVE
BEGUN Reporters have
started visiting farms for the
purpose of checking crop

responsibility of the farm

in checking the crops when the

should be reviewed by the farm
operator and signed before the
reporter leaves the farm.
Please give your usual good
cooperation in order that the

FHA Change
To Benefit
More Families
Many additional families in
North Carolina are now eligible
for rural housing loans from the
Farmers Home Administration,
FHA State Director James T.
Johnson announced today.
"In families where both
husband and wife are em
ployed," Johnson explained,
"the new policy permits half of
the wife's gross income to be
excluded in - determining
whether the total family income
is within the maximum limit for
loan eligibility."
For example, the husband is
the principal source of income
with $6,000. His wife earns
$4,000. His entire income, plus
half of his wife's, or $2,000, total
$8,000. This is within North
Carolina's moderate income
level of $8,000 so the family may
be eligible for a Farmers Home
Administration loan.
State Director Johnson
emphasized that newly-eligible
families must demonstrate that
they otherwise merit FHA
financing, and that credit is not
available from regular com
merical sources.
"The new policy will assist
families in which the wife's
income is needed to improve the
standard of living. Note that if
the wife is the principal
breadwinner, the rule does not
apply. This change will in no
way affect our expanding
service to low-income
families,"
Loans may be made to
families that will buy or build in
open country or towns of up to
10,000 population, and who are'
not able to secure credit from
regular commercial sources.
Complete information is
available from the agency's 73
offices serving the 100 counties
in North Carolina.
The county office serving
Perquimans County is located
in the Perquimans County
Office Building.

Use Pencil And Paper
To Check Landscaping
By M. E. GARDNER

Now that plants! are
green and growing, it may
be a good time to take a
1 pencil and paper and
check over your entire
landscape.
It is rare that some
mistakes are not made in
planning and planting. I
will mention a few and I
am sure that you can think
of others that may need
attention during the next
few months. .
