Minister of Finance ' Mr. Sharp has announced that steps are being taken to allow Can­ adian banks' to increase.the' 'in­ terest rate. Details are, of course, not yet available. Whether the increase in loan rates will be matched by a cor­ responding increase 'in interest on deposits remains to bie seen. Since all other costs' seiem to be going up it may be reason­ able that banks need additional interest to cover costs. How­ ever, this was not mentioned in Mr, Sharp’s remark on TV. The reason for the increase, as given by Mr. Sharp, is to help ’the banks to provide credit to those who can’t at the mo­ ment provide the necessary se­ curity to satisfy present bank regulations. In other words the regulation changes which will­ help the' poorer section pf our population will increase inter­ est rates on these loans. And this is to help the poor I Maybe it will improver -'pre­ sent conditions. Presently these people are forced to patronize finance companies where inter­ est rates are extremely high. Maybe the banks will be able to do this for less but I wonder. It has always been my under­ standing that interest rates in­ crease as the risk of loss in­ creases. This becomes a vicious circle Since the higher the in­ terest the less chance there is of the borrower beling able to repay the principle. In fact I have been told that some fin­ ance charges have' been so high that the borrower has barely, been able to make the interest' payments and has been amazed to find, after a couple of years of monthly payments that he still owes as much as ever. Basically the borrower is comparatively poor while the lender is comparatively rich. If it is the Sincere, desire of the Finance Minister and his gov­ ernment to .help the poor, in- / J. Carl terest rates should be lowered rather than increased, The present and previous governments have shown little inclination' to do this. They have been hard pressed to enforce legislation that requires a. clear statement of interest charges by the lender. There is little if any ceiling on rates that may be charged by lending 'institutions other than banks. If the present government wishes to help those who re­ quire loans let the government guarantee the loan. This will eliminate the .risk of loss of capital tor the lender. Therefore the lender wouldn't need a high rate of interest and the bor­ rower’s ability to- re-pay would Hemingway be increased. In fact the government might well regulate the interest rate for business development loans to match the returns on invest­ ment lin that bustoeiss. Some time ago I mead that the returns on capital invest­ ment fin Agriculture is 3% in United States. It is likely to be much, the, same in Canada. We can hardly-feel that a govern­ ment corporation that charges from 5% to &%%. on farm loans' fe really interested in helping the fatnmier increase his income. Neither can we feel that a government that- pro­ motes an increase in bank in­ terest lis primarily interested in helping the .neediy. v r for the purpose of organizing further Tractor Demonstrations Guest Speaker — Walter Miller; 2nd Vice President, Ontarjo Farmer's Union. wish to announce the opening of Uptown BP Service Station ii MRS.
