Trading Turns Dull as List Holds Around Lows For the Day.
NEW YORK, Aug. 7 (U. P)— Stocks steadied near their lows in
- early afternoon trading today after
a aecline of fractions to 2 points in morning Yealings. Trading was moderately active. for a few minutes in the second hour when selling was heaviest, but turned dull later.

Peters Says Amie Low
Rate Funds Available
An ample amount of funds will be available for financing the purchase of small homes under the new 4% per cent interest rate to be charged on loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration, according to R. Earl Peters, Director of the FHA for Indiana. Mr. Peters stated that a survey of the state mortgage market indicated that the private lending institutions were willing to do their part in making funds available for the financing of home purchase at the lowest rates ever recorded in the
wise basis. He pointed out that many FHA insured mortgage loans had been made locally at 4% per cent before this rate became mandatory as a result of the announcement by Stewart McDonald, Administetor of the National Housing Act. “This reduction extends to the home buying public the benefits of generally lower interest rates now prevailing in the money market,” Mr. Peters said. “With these reductions small homes can be purchased on terms as low as 10 per cent down and average monthly payments of $5.81 per $1000 to the borrower, including principal, interest and mortgage insurance premium.” .
