NAHB President Golls for Relqxqtion of Credir Gontrols

On the basis of recent conversations with government offrcials, Earl W. Smith, president of the National Association of Home Builders, said that he believes there is increasing awareness of the need for a re-examination of current housing credit policies in the light of recent developments on the homebuilding front.

The ,current decline in housing starts and the tightening mortgage credit situation make it imperative for the Administration to loosen its restrictions on housing credit. "It is to be hoped that they will act without delay to relax existing curbs on housing," Smith said.

After reviewing conditions in many areas, the El Cerrito, Calif., builder said that it is quite clear that builders everywhere are encountering a mortgage pinch which means an inevitable and serious further slowdown in housing starts early next year. In view of the six-months lag between initial financing and the start of the house, no'iv is the time, said Smith, to take action if we are to prevent starts from slipping badly next year.

Along with other industry leaders, the NAHB president has been urging government ofificials to take action to relieve the mortgage pinch, to relax unnecessary home building credit restrictions and to clarify their policy on mortgage warehousing as rapidly as possible so as to permit preliminary work for next year's building operations to go on unhindered.
