Many Democratic senators ex pressed the hope that the House would knock out of the bill its most disputed feature authority for President Eisenhower to raise the interest rate on GI home mort gages from the present 4'i to 43, per cent.

The Senate passed the bill 864 after a day of debate. On the only controversial Issue higher interest rates the Senate divided evenly in two dramatic tie votes.

Sparkman (D-Ala. chief sponsor of the bill, said it could make possible 200.000 additional homes in 1958. Democratic Leader Lyndon B.

The additional money authorized to? by the bill would permit the Fed eral National Mortgage Assn. to buy a billion dollars worth of FHA and VA mortgages for which prl' vate funds are not available and give Eisenhower a 500-mlllion- dollur fund he could direct FNMA to use to buy other mortgages If the recession worsened. ' Also Included are an extra 300 million dollars lor direct loans te veterans and SO million for mili- housing mortgages.
