Rural housing direct loans are authorized by title V of the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, to be made to farm and non-farmowners of real estate in rural areas, to longterm farm leaseholders, and to senior citizens who are or will be owners of land in rural areas. Loans are made only to persons unable to obtain housing credit from other sources upon reasonable terms and conditions. Direct loans to individuals are repayable in not more than 33 years and bear interest at 4%. Grants are made for minor building repair. In addition to the direct loans and grants, insured loans are made to provide housing for

domestic farm labor, and to provide rental housing for senior citizens in rural areas.

1. Rural housing grants and loans.-Direct farm enlargement and development loans, along with building loans, are made to farmowners on potentially adequate farms who need to develop their farms so as to increase their income sufficiently to repay the loans. Grants are made to farmowners, to owners of other real estate and long-term farm leaseholders in rural areas for such items as repairing roofs, providing sanitary facilities, providing an adequate sanitary water supply, and supplying screens. In some cases, a combination building loan and grant is made. A building loan or grant or a combination loan and grant may not exceed $1 thousand.

furnished by private investors. Annual payments of principal and interest to lenders are fully guaranteed. The Government retains at least one-half of 1% of the interest as an insurance premium.

This program was authorized by section 102 of the Food and Agriculture Act of 1962. Loans are made to local public agencies or groups for rural renewal development projects which are specifically related to conservation and land utilization. Each project will be an important component of the overall rural renewal plan previously developed to rebuild the economy of the designated area. To be eligible for designation as a rural renewal area, the locality must be one of chronic underemployment on farms and unemployment in the surrounding communities. The area must also be one in which agriculture or forestry contribute substantially to the economy. The 1966 request is to provide for continuation of program operation in five pilot project areas.

Program operations include selection and designation of rural renewal areas, technical assistance to local public bodies or officials, or organizations in the preparation of an economic development plan, and counsel to local agencies and groups for meeting legal requirements necessary for borrowing funds. The borrowing agency is designated by the State legislature or Governor to receive rural renewal loan funds and is vested with authority under State and local laws to borrow funds, buy and sell property, raise revenue, meet financial obligations and transact other necessary business functions.
