As 10 the causes OF the severe de-
cline In prices" writes Governor Seay
70 the mercantile house In question,
you Will find a very great divergence
OF opinion. First and foremost must
always be taken into account the an
tecedent rise, the natural law that
what goes up is bound to come down
no matter what sends 1t up.
:. Az opposed to your opinion, I hold
the view that the action of the Federal
'Reserve banks In protection of their
reserves, which were being rapidly ex-
hausted-exhaustion Of which would
have caused collapse and ruin, entail
ing universal disaster, from which
there could have been no recovery ex-
cept by the long, tedious, patient, toll
ing process of building up after de-
etruction. was no more responsible for
what you call the 'deflation' of prices,
than you are responsible for the action
OF the law Of gravitation.
This 'defiation' or decline In prices
was not peculiar to our own country.
and to attribute such declines here or
m other countries to the policy Of the
FEDERAL Reserve System Is arbitrarily
% assign to 1t an influence which 1t
does not and cannot exercise. but

ton and reaction which have been at
