Altho Fort explained that a

that he could only urge such a

This phase of the system was

"There is an impressln.". the
circular warned. "that the federal

WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—Ths
administration’s moratorium on
home mortgage foreclosures ap-
peared today to be confined thus
far to the narrow limits of closed
national and state banks.
There Is no indication of any
major move on the part of solvent
institutions, holding the bulk of
the nation’s $12,000,000,000 home
mortgages, to follew the sugges-
' tion of Chairman Franklin Fort of
the Home Loan Bank Board for a
60-day suspension of all foreclos-
ures.
• The proposal was made by Fort
Aug. 27, when he announced to
President Hoover’s national con-
ference of business and Industrial
committees that the comptroller
of currency had ordered receivers
of Insolvent national banks to sus-
pend foreclosures for two months
until the home loan system was in
operation.
- Asked Co-operation
Fort - accompanied the an-
nouncement with telegraphed re-
quests on state banking supern-
tendents, asking them to "instruct
recelvers of closed institutions to
withhold or delay foreclosure pro-
ceedings for at least 60 days, thus
offering a chance of preserving
the equity of the owner." This
request has been granted in 40
stateset
At the same time, Fort appealed
to the conference to "help to see
not pnly that receivers generally
grant this respite, but that other
lenders do likewise " Fort reports
pledges of co-operation, but is un-
able to estimate the extent of this
proposal's acceptanee.
The order to receivers 'of closed
national banks has affected about
500 institutions, the treasury de-
