[John Tower Speech to Savings and Loan Associations about Legislation Affecting Savings and Loan Industry - c. 1973]

Description: Speech delivered by Senator John Tower to Savings and Loan Associations updating them on legislative developments that may affect their industry. Tower explains changes occurring in the housing market such as reduced construction of homes and the flight of people to inner city housing. He also mentions measures that could hurt thrift associations such as President Nixon's proposal for a Department of Housing and Urban Development co-insurance program that would require savings and loan associations to insure loans with the Federal Housing Administration. There is also a major concern about Federal Reserve regulations that could essentially transfer funds from thrifts to commercial banks. To alleviate this issue, John Tower introduced and promoted Senate Joint Resolution 160 as a "band-aid" and hopes that Senate Bill 2591 will provide a more thorough diagnosis of the problem.

[Edited Version of John Tower Speech to Small Business Professionals about the Small Business Administration, June 16, 1975]

Description: Speech given by John Tower to small business professionals. Senator Tower discusses how small businesses are good for the economy and could help alleviate current issues. However, Tower perceives three factors that hold back small businesses: federal regulation, high taxes, and federal subsidy programs that have limited impact. He proposes that the national commission on small business should study the effect of federal regulations on small businesses, the effectiveness of federal subsidy programs, and alternative solutions to create a favorable economic environment for small business. The Small Business Administration should serve as a information and resource center for small businesses to learn about ways to effectively compete.
