INTEREST RATES
ARE IMPORTANT
Senator Owen Sees Great Harm !
Federal Reserve Board Acts
Without Caution at
Present Time.

Hunted Press Leased Wire Service
| WASHINGTON, May 20.-The fed
! eral reserve board, occupying the
financial position held by ]. P. Nor
gan in the panic of 1907. will cause
great harm if it sweepingly raises
interest rates in an effort to reduce
living costs. according to Senator
Robert l.. Owen, one OF the fathers
of the law which created the board.
The board is justified only in re-
curing liquidation of loans held
for speculative or profteering puT-
poses, he said.
The following question was asked
of Owen today by the United Press
! as Governor Harding. of the fed
: eral reserve board. now sitting where
II. ?. Morgan sat in 1907, that ls,
hasn't control OF credit been trans
ferred from Wall street to Washing
TONI"
Senator Owen replied:
1T was the intention Of the federal
reserve act to put the government ct
the United States in the position TO
exercise supervisory control over the
banking system of the United States
and through the great power OF issu-
ing federal reserve notes and con-
trolling the extension of credit by the
reserve banks to control the credit
system Of the United States, give
stability to business and establish
credit upon reasonable basis with
stable and just interest rates.
Mr.. Morgan, of course, in 1901,
with his group controlling the re-
serves of the country centered IN New
York. had similar power.
"J think the board is justified AMI
that the member banks are justified
in gradually requiring liquidation
loans held for speculative purposes or
for profiteering purposes through the
wilfull boarding of commodities lot
speculation, but they are not 1usu-
fed in putting up the rates OF the
reserve banks to six and seven per
cent thereby inviting every oanE 10
the Tinted States to raise the rates
and construct credits.
That means raising the rates on
probably fifty billions of public ana
nrivate loans. on bank loans, on
mortgages. on government loans.
warned the board their action wou:h
have this effect. 1t has had the
effect Government loans are now on
a six percent basis and Liberty bonds
have gone to eighty-two. If the red
era1 reserve board accepts the policy
to which I have objected by raising
the rates broadly on those who are
NOT speculating great harm must FOL
low and production be interfered

THE powers of the reserve boa71
are much greater than Morgan hao.
think It unfortunate that men so
closely affiliated with Morgan ana
Company should have been gwen
such great powers as that exercised
by Benjamin Strong, as governor 4"
the federal reserve bank of New
york because inevitably the point OF
view is vital and the advice coming
from such sources is not the advice
which would be given by manufac-
truers and merchants who must nave

 FLIGHT STARTS
 FROM SANDIEC0

SAN DIEGO. Dec. 51 (by Associ ated Press) - Fourteen seaplanes, headed by five L-squadron leaders. left here yesterday on the first lap of their proposed flight to Panama bay.
 The two great NC seaplanes which flew across the Atlantic hopped off shortly afterwards.
 Commander Towers. who won fame in the Transatlantic flight, is com manding the division.
 The movement of seaplanes from aircraft tender towers is said to pre- sent flight more dangerous than the Transatlantic flight, because it is 1,S00 miles longer and less safe guarded. The route to be covered lies along the west coast of Mexico, under control of America.
 The plane N-C-5 of the naval fleet in the flight to Balboa was forced to turn back after covering 75 miles because of a damaged hull The R-C-5 will resume the flight after the damage Is repaired.
