Some very interesting suggestions as APP
plying to commercial paper, to banks anu
the money market are advanced by GOV
ernor Alfred l.. Aiken, OF the Federal ~ "
serve Bank OF Boston. Governor Alh, Alheu
suggests the use Of short time commerciaI
paper. especially paper having, about lour
months TO run instead Of six months as Is
the general rule now. ,,-...,,,.
In backing up this suggestion Governor
Aiken SAYS: at is of great Importance that
the commercial banks of the country keep
as liduid as possible and that they shoulu
have in their portfolios paper that can pe
rediscounted with the Federal reserve
Banks. -.
AS the reserve banks can only rediscount
paper having ninety days or less to run II
the members banks Investments are in SIX
months paper, on the average only % per
cent Of such paper is at any one time avail
able to rediscount; but should the invest
ment be in paper having four months or
less TO run, at least IS per cent would, on
the average, have not more than ninety days
to run to maturity and be Immediately
available for use at the reserve banks.
with this method Of making paper, GOV
ernor Aiken makes the point that the banks
would have a turnover three times year
