WASHINGTON, Sept. 25-Eastng or
the credit situation to a considerable
extent will result from the lower range
Of prices now prevailing in leading
trade lines. according to the opinion ex-
pressed today by Edmund Platt. vice.
governor of the Federal Reserve Board
Mr.. Platt would not undertake TO say
how far the price recessions would go.
but said he regarded as significant the
spread Of the price drop movement

bringing about lower demand for many
articles and causing factories to slow
down for lack of orders. Is at the bot
tom Of the present lower price trend.
Mr. Platt indicated.
Commenting upon the plea Of manu-
facturers that they cannot sell below
cost of production, followed by requests
that the government relax its credit re-
strictions. he indicated that such inter
ests must get out Of the habit of re
lying upon government aid.

much as he thinks It ought to bring.
he writes TO the federal reserve board
and says its outrageous that money is
so tight"
Mr.. Platt expressed the view that fac
tory closing price slumps are in no
sense the result Of credit restriction. He
declared there has been a decrease in
prices all over the world. starting last
inter in the collapse Of the silk mar
ket in Japan. followed by sudden drops
in the price Of leather and wool. and
then extending more recently to other
lines of trade
