BANKS WARNED AGAINST
BIG WARRANT PURCHASES

A warning to reserve banks against
overinvestment in warrants was is
sued last night by the reserve board.
Pursuant to its policy Of conserva-
tion." reads the statement contained in
the boards monthly bulletin. 1.-The board
has advised the reserve banks that it
believes in adherence to a policy Of dis
tinct moderation in connection with the
purchase of warrants. Such invest
ments should be encouraged during Pc
RODS of great ease of money and when
rediscounts from member banks and
offers of bankers acceptances are not
expected to be heavy.
"At a moment, however. when indi-
cations are that requirements for COM
mercial credit may be heavy and when
federal reserve banks must be pre-
pared to meet heavy demands upon
them by their member banks the board
thinks 1t inadvisable to invest the
funds Of the federal reserve banks in
warrants"
