The Central Bank Plan

Now for the Reynolds plan: Mr..
Reynolds would establish central
bank that would be central in fact as
Vel as name. This probably means
that It would be located IN Chicago.
The hank would have a capital of no.
less than 500, D00, 600, subscribed
either by the national banks of
the country or By the public. Mr..
Reynolds favors the latter solution
as avoiding criticism that the bank
might be run solely in the interest
OF bankers. Stock in the bank would
draw small dividend guaranteed by
the government. This central bank
would be the fiscal agent of the gov
eminent and would have all govern
ment funds deposited with II, doing
away with subtreasuries. Ii would not
have the function of supporting the
public credit In addition TO govern
ment funds. the central bank should
receive as deposits the funds of ma
tional banks in the three central re-
serve cities, acting as reserve depos-
posts from the public It's charter
should provide for branch banks in
each city now having subtreasury
and in such other cities as might be
necessary to give the whole country
adequate service
How shall the central bank inves,
its funds7 According to the Reynolds
plan the central bank should accept
discounts from the national banks
and possibly from the state banks. II
necessary TO The full employment OF
Its funds ii should also accept dis
counts from the public.
Now. as 10 the most important func-
ton OF the central bank-the issuance
Of currency. To accomplish its pur-
pose the bank in time of emergency
must be able TO issue notes in ex-
change for credit. How are such notes
TO be secured. Mr Reynolds would
have the bank carry a gold reserve OF
say 1913 per cent-the German
against its notes He would
then have the bank authorized to is
sue notes on security Of commercial
paper l-sS. SsSIi-Hg aCiu2l IgdnSdc-
tons between solvent concerns. In
this way the volume of notes would
expand or contract automatically as
the requirements for discounts increas-
ed Or decreased. Notes would invar-
iabiy be retired when the transaction
creating the credit was completed and
the credit paid
The bank would of course be under
strict governmental supervision. For
this purpose Mr.. Reynolds proposes
a supervising board appointed by the
President, the secretary of the treas
ury and the controller OF the currency,
and confirmed by the senate This
board would appoint the president and
directors who would hold Office for
long terms. or perhaps for life, or
during good behavior, to insure free
dom from political influence. The
stockholders also would select board
10 confer With the supervising board
and have access TO all the records of
The bank The control of the super
T5sing board, however. would be par
amount No financial clique could
eontrol the affairs Of the bank even by
gaining control Of its stock.
