Vol. 10 No. 14 Des Moines, Iowa “ A ll Savers” Bill Moves Ahead FTER a session that lasted until A 2:00 a.m. the morning of July 22, the House Ways and Means Committee approved its version of the All Savers Certificate. The same legislation had been approved a few days earlier by the Senate on an 86-10 vote. The bill in its present form has drawn strong opposition from the American Bankers Association, which objects to the targeting of the funds and creating a credit allocation piece of legislation. The bill presently requires any financial institution offering the All Saver Certificate to figure the lesser of: 1. Total dollars collected by All Savers Certificates in that institu tion, or 2. Net growth of retail deposits in the institution. Then, 75 % of that amount would have to be allocated for housing or agroculture. Up until the final hours of debate in the Senate, the bill zeroes in strictly on housing, but agriculture was added at the last minute in broad terms in order to buy off the farm lobbies. Sen Jake Gam offered an amendment on the floor that would have included small business loans, auto loans and student loans, but his motion was defeated. The bill specifically lists the following as eligible for “ housing” loans from this 75% pool of funds: • Housing loans, including mort gage loans on residential real estate and including second mortgages. • Home improvement loans. • Government insured and guaran teed mortgage loans. • Mobile home loans. • Construction loans for residential construction or rehabilitation. • Purchase of mortgage loans in the secondary market. • Purchase of Fannie Mae, Ginny Mae or Freddie Mac securities. However, when agriculture was introduced at the last minute, there was no definition of ag loans as outlined above for housing. If enacted now, the bill would authorize financial institutions to offer the All Saver Certificate starting with the last quarter of 1981 and each quarter thereafter for a period of 15 months, then this temporary legislation would cease. Regulators would be obligated to review each institution at the end of the quarter and if they found an institution did not meet the credit allocation test, that institution would July 27,1981 not be authorized to offer it for the next quarter. Among other things, A B A points out this would be an administrative nightmare. A B A feels the key to the whole thing is the role of the Reagan Administration, which has been basically to roll over and play dead and A B A , which had committed itself to supporting efforts of the new Administration to cut costs, taxes and balance the budget, backed the Administration. Then, the Adminis tration backed off and said it would not oppose the bill. A B A contacted Treasury Secretary Regan to deter mine Treasury’s position and was told Treasury would accept the bill and not oppose it after looking at the tax income tradeoffs. A B A then wrote Congressman Rostenkowski it would support the bill, but Congress came back by then writing in the credit allocation clause. A B A President Lee Gunderson issued a hard-hitting statement after that: “ We are especially disappointed that the Reagan Administration has stood mutely by while this convoluted credit allocation plan was incubated and hatched. Surely, the Administration is not in such a weak position that it must watch helplessly while an otherwise excellent tax bill is tarnished by the addition of this government designed boondoggle.” An A B A spokesman pointed out that among the worst aspects of the bill is that it would change the assets ASK STAN FARMER to make MNB work for you.

L. “ DICK” SELLON Bemie Kersey An Affiliate of Northwest Bancorporation side of an institution to meet the 75 % requirements. Since it is an assets test, he stated, this would cut back the new purchase of municipal bonds and Treasury bills. The spokesman said the Senate vote and House concurrence to date has come after a massive campaign by the national home builders association to get the 75% linkage included in the All Saver legislation. S&Ls didn’t favor this at first, he said, but did accept it later in order to get the new certificate. The home builders group apparently blitzed Congress with thousands of phone calls by encouraging every staff member of their members to call long distance to Congressmen. It was reported that each employe who made the most calls each day was given a $25 bonus that day, and the one who made the most calls in a week was given a larger bonus. The All Saver Certificate is authorized only for 15 months. It would be offered in increments of $500. There would be no tax on the first $1,000 of interest income for an individual and no tax on $2,000 interest income for a joint filing. A B A feels this helps only those in tax brackets of 30% and above, while the S&Ls claim it will help their passbook rate savers. After the House Ways and Means committee approved last week, the bill went to the House Rules committee, which would have taken a day, then it was to be taken by the full house, possibly late last week.

In that event, if the House passes the bill it would go directly to the President for signature. If the House keeps its own language, the bill would have to go to a conference committee, then any agreement would have to be ratified by both the House and the Senate before proceeding to the President. □ MR.
