Sinai Hospital has obtained
an FHA guaranteed motgage
of nearly $21,000,000, the
largest ever processed by
the Detroit FHA office, for
six building and alterations
projects and refinancing of
existing debt.
Papers were. signed in the
Detroit FHA offices Feb. 21
for the 25-year mortgage at
an interest rate of 81/4 per
cent. Citizens Mortgage Corp.
of Southfield, a subsidiary of
Manufacturers-Hanover Corp.
of New York, is the mort-
gagee.
The mortgage enables Sinai
to proceed with a long-range
building program, according
to Milton M. Maddin, hos-
pital president.
Approximately $12,600,000
in existing debt will be re-
financed; the remainder of
the $20,900,000 is earmarked
for additions and enlarge-
ments, he said.
The closing climaxed
nearly three years of tran-
sactions with the departments
of Housing and Urban De-
velopment and Health, Edu-
cation and Welfare, and the
M i c h i g an Department of
Public Health.
The loan was made possible
through Section 242, Title II
of the National Housing Act.

which authorizes HUD to in-
sure mortgage loans for con-
struction or rehabilitation of
nonprofit hospital facilities
a n d to supplement HEW
guaranteed loans for the
same purpose.
HEW, acting as an agent
of HUD, was responsible for
determining the feasibility of
the proposal. Its action was
based on approval of Sinai's
plans by the state health de-
partment's division of health
facilities planning and con-
struction, headed by Richard
A. Reihmer.
Sinai officials first investi-
gated FHA financing follow-
ing a suggestion by Max M.
Fisher, Sinai trustee.
The cooperation of HUD,
HEW, FHA and state health

department officials was
credited with the success of
the application by Alfred L.
Deutsch, Sinai treasurer and
trustee, and Jerome Frank,
chairman of the finance com-
mittee.
Expansion will begin this
spring, said Dr. Julien Pri-
ver, executive vice president
of Sinai.
"The opening of the Max
M. and Marjorie S. Fisher
Pavilion, previously approved
by area planning authorities,
added 156 beds. This expan-
sion taxed the facilities of
our two major diagnostic de-
partments, radiology a n d
laboratory medicine. At long
last they can be expanded to
care for the additional patient
load," he said.
