, VETERANS HAVE FIVE
MONTHS TO GUARANTEE
PRIVILEGES
Less than five months remain
for veterans of World War IT to
u*e their guarantee privileges
for a loan to purchase a homp.
farm or for business purposes.
This 'warning came from P. J.
Mims, Manager. Veterans Ad-
ministration Regional Office,
Houston, Texas.
Present statutes provide that
absolute cutoff date for World
War II veterans will be on July
25, 1967. This deadline is the
result of Congressional action
which has delayed the final date
of eligibility several times.
The cutoff will not affect
veterans of the Korean Conflict
or veterans who have served
since January 31, 1955, Mims
pointed out, as these veterans
are covered by different legisla-
tion. ,
Almost seven million loans
have been guaranteed by the
Veterans Administration to vet-
erans since the beginning of the
program following World War
II. One out of every five homes
constructed in the United States
following World War II was
with VA guarantee.
The Veterans Administration
will guarantee up to 60 percent
of the purchase price of a home
for a veteran with limitation as
to the total purchase price.
Mims urged veterans planning
to purchase a home to make their
selection as soon as possible,
avoiding the, last minute rush
for certification.
