DIRECT LOAN ACCOUNT

"^^^- ^^^- (^) There is hereby created the Rural Housing Direct Loan Account (hereinafter referred to as the 'Account') which shall be used by the Secretary for carrying out the provisions of this section. There are authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary such sums as may be necessary for the purposes of the Account. " (b) There are transferred to the Account (1) all funds, claims, notes, mortgages, contracts, and property, and all collections and proceeds therefrom, held by the Secretary under the direct loan provisions of this title, including those securing notes issued by the Secretary to the Secretary of the Treasury under section 511 and any unexpended balance of amounts borrowed upon such notes, and (2) all unexpended balances of appropriations for direct loans under this title, including the fund authorized by section 515(a). All amounts hereafter borrowed by the Secretary from the Secretary of the Treasury under section 511 shall be deposited in the Account. All collections and proceeds from assets acquired by the Account shall be deposited in the Account. "(c) When and in such amounts as may be authorized in appropriation Acts, the Secretary may issue notes to the Secretary of the Treasury to obtain funds to be deposited in the Account. The form, denominations, maturities, and other terms and conditions of such notes shall be prescribed by the Secretary with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury. Each note shall bear interest at the average rate determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, payable by the Treasury upon its marketable public obligations outstanding at the beginning of the fiscal year in which such note is issued, which are neither due nor callable for redemption for fifteen years from their date of issue. The Secretary of the Treasury is authorized and directed to purchase any notes of the Secretary issued hereunder, and for that purpose the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to use as a public debt transaction the proceeds from the sale of any securities issued under the Second Liberty Bond Act, as amended, and the purposes for which such securities may be issued under such Act are extended to include the purchase of notes issued by the Secretary. All redemptions, purchases, and sales by the Secretary of the Treasury of such notes shall be treated as public debt transactions of the United States. " (d) The Account shall remain available to the Secretary for the payment of interest and principal on notes issued by the Secretary to the Secretary of the Treasury under section 511 or this section, and for direct loans and related advances under this title in such amounts as are now authorized by law and in such further amounts as shall be authorized in appropriation Acts. Amounts so authorized for such loans and advances shall remain available until expended." (^) Section 511 of such Act is amended— (1) by striking out the first sentence and inserting in lieu thereof "The Secretary may issue notes and other obligations for purchase by the Secretary of the Treasury for the purpose of making direct loans under this title."; (2) by striking out the second sentence and inserting in lieu thereof "The total principal amount of such notes and obligations issued pursuant to this section during the period beginning July 1, 1956, and ending October 1, 1969, shall not exceed $850,000,000."; and
