Births At Mercy Hospital Housing Boom Not Hurt Now By Mortgage Curb WASHINGTON P) Home builders said that recent govern ment curbs on mortgages will not check the record breaking housing boom until late fall. They said the eventual effect will be a cut of 25 to 30 percent in home building next year. That estimate of the situation was announced by the National Association of Home Builders, which is anxious to avoid any further housing controls at this time. The new government regulations require veterans to make a 5 per cent down payment when buying a home, and require down pay ments five percent larger than heretofore on mortgages insured by the Federal Housing administration.
