applicant the poten tial success of the proposed en terprise the level headedness of the one asking for the loan and the security offered One bank er said that he always ask for technical security He felt that if the risk was good and the veteran had some of his own capital in the venture the chances of success were high and he would grant the loan This same official related the story of two ex servicemen who 10 borrow some money to open an automobile accessory shop When asked how much money they had the vets re plied: want to use that we wantsome of that GT Obviously applicants like that have to post good security requent financial grief is ex perienced because' of a surplus of money instead of a need Many of the vets and some de fense workers who have built up capital want to let the

many respects similar to the sonar device used by the Navy to detect subma rines during the war and can also be compared to the Army Air loran navigation system and absolute altitude re corder Many practical added uses are seen for the super sonic sounder compared with the old method of sounding with a weighted hand line or one thing it in dicates the nature of sea bot toms on a permanent graph and as such can be used to chart har bors and coastal waters A mud dy bottom produces a wide line on the graph while a sandy bot tom shows up as a narrow one The new sounder is also prac tical in salvage work to locate sunken objects and can be used by fishermen to locate the larger runs of fish ish appear as shaded obstructions on the graph or use as a navigation aid in foggy weather mariners need only compare readings on the sounder with the depths plotted on geodetic charts to set a course by pinpoint The sounder used in demonstrations is at present the only one in use in Southern

own i ers and fishermen were on hand at the Breakwater Tuesday to witness the first sea going dem onstrations in this area of a new super sonic depth sound? el oped during the bi' the Marine Division of the Bendix Aviation Corp The device a commercial version of larger types used by the Navy records depth of water by measuring the time interval taken to send and receive back a radioed impulse traveling from ship to sea bot tom Demonstrations got under way from the City loat at 1:30 pm with Walter Rhea and Geddes Jr Bendix representa tives in charge The fishing boat loaned by Capt Lloyd Lindwall made several runs outside the Harbor while spectators lined her deck and Rhea and Geddes explained the operation of a demonstrating unit set up on board 4 The new sounder is essentially a hlgh frcciucncy radio transmit ting anti receiving station com posed of two main units a re corder unit containing the "sta and a graphic chart upon which refolded depths arc traced In feet or fathoms and an underwater unit called a transducer The transducer con verts radio frequency to super sound frequency One of the biggest dilemmas which faces the incipient entre preneur is that connected with financial arrangements he must make This is particularly true in the case of veterans who have been almost universally frus trated in their attempts to bor row money under the terms of the GI Bill of Rights Some men have been able to borrow money but not one veteran in Santa Barbara has been success ful in negotiating a GI loan Veterans and local lending agen cies are unanimous in criticism of the alleged shortcomings and ambiguity of the bill and the red tape involved The bill has been revised but there still are confusing clauses which discourage lenders and borrowers from initiating the tedious process The old bill had two major requirements that had to be met before the veteran could even start the paper work necessary in cases which are approved by local authorities and forwarded to national gov ernment offices for further con sideration The bank or approv ed lending agency had to ap prove the loan and' if purchase of property was involved a Vet erans Administration appraiser had to agree that the price repre sented a reasonable normal value for the property sought APPRA I SAL STAN AR DS look at latter first If an appraiser were required it would be necessary to send to Los Angeles for him The eco nomic conditions are different there consequently he has a different' standard whereby he measures the nor mal of a piece of property And the business men and bank ers ask what is reasonable and normal today? This adds to the difficulties in mak ing decisions on loan requests The lenders be sure even if they approve a loan that the appraiser will agree If he there has been lost time and effort if he does approve local bankers and veterans of ficials estimate it would take several months before the final OK was given Under the new provisions loans may now be made by any lending agency which is subject to examination and supervision by a Government agency and re strictions of certain ederal laws are removed A loan becomes automatically guaranteed if the lending agency and the veteran close the deal the terms being in accord with the provisions of the act The only other require ment is that the cost does not exceed the reasonable value made by a VA designated ap praiser Bankers point out that this puts the burden on them to judge the advisability of the loan nut oy maintaining me apprais a nd clauses their judgment is not backed up The bankers think that the Government back the total loan (the Govern ment now stands security for one half 'up to a maximum of $2000) and back the decisions of the bank or let a ederal ap praiser make the whole decision LOAN PREERRED One local banker said that if his bank thinks an idea ad vanced by a veteran is sound it will make a private arrangement with him rather than subject him or the bank to the process necessary under the GI Bill Some veterans applying for loans are bitter and feel that the bankand the Government are giving them "the run One veteran has pur chased a local company which makes a' building material He said that it took two months to make the material and prepare it for use and wanted additional capital for salaries and supplies until it was ready for sale lie also wanted money to expandin: order to capitalize on the poten tial trade indicated by the num ber of advance orders he had al ready received He had used most of his money" to purchase the company and wanted to bor row the rest under the provis ions of the GI Bill He said that one bank refused even to take his application and none would consider a loan to him He ad mitted that a banker told him that he expect to get a loan because his only the business
