PAGE SIX VETERAN ) { | By MAJOR TH e WASHINGTON — The talk I ré- ported in my last article, between my ex-leatherneck friend anfl the vice president of one of Washing- ton's banks, brought out a few in- teresting points To some of us veterans, the loan provisions of the GI Bill make the difference between getting and not getting enough money at 4 per cent interest to start a small busines Many would-be borrowers do not have the financial and business back- ground to rate a loan, in spite of the 2000 dollar government guar- antee; and while a sort of wacky flood of propaganda has somehow gotten to servicemen and veterans on this GI loan business, a veteran can't walk into a bank, present his discharge, and walk out with 2,000 bucks All the GI Bill dees is that the government, through Veterans' Administration, will “guar- antee” 50 per cent of any loan a veteran may negotiate from any ac- credited lending agency That 50 per cent can’t exceed $2,000 That's the top amount the govern- ment will guarantee, no matter how much you may borrow. And don't get excited by that word “guarantee.” It simply means in case you can't pay back the loan, the government will pay 50 per cent of it for you, and then you will owe the govern- ment Uncle Sam is offering some pro- tection to the lending agency, just to try to make it easier for you to borrow. Ex-Corporal Jim B. went to his lo- cél bank to try for a loan. He want- ed to borrow 5,000 bucks under the GI Blll loan provisions. They were very nice to him at the bank, but they asked a lot of questions. What did he want this money for? Jim said he'd like to start a small men's clothing store. Had he ever worked in a retail clothing provide the $' GUIDE OMAS M.

Harold Bolton was today announ- ced by owners Roald Copstead and Harold Bates as their selection to manage the Gro y Department of their new 20th Century Market here. !Mr. Bolton, accompanied by Mrs. Bolton and their 12-year-old son, Harold, Jr., has arrived here from Sitka to make Juneau their home. At present, Mr. Bolton is devot- ing his attention to remodelling plans for the market He was in | charge of recent remodeling of the |Sitka Cold Storage store, also.

To rate a busi- ness loan, we've got to have a rea- sonable chance of making a go of the new business. The set-up has to appear ‘“practicable” Banks wouldn't be banks for long if they didn't insist on having their loans reaconably protected.
