II will I've remembered that after the

Moreover at present the country is en-
Joying the benefits of the new banking
system that has been established: AMI
II Is fair TO say that as 50 far devel-

almost incalculable. The rediscounting
features Of the operatl ons of the Federal
reserve banks are not great for the
time being because money Is so cheap
that there Is little demand for redls-

In the meantime prime factor In the
work Of making money easy, and one

that the President suppressed a de.
