THE PRESIDENT
ON DEFLAT|ON
New York Times. October II.

New York Times, october IL.
One is somewhat at a loss to under
stand what President Harding means
hv his statement that "the national
fiscal policy has been directed to ar
rest the rapid deflation which had set
in" and that ito this end there has
been progressive reduction OF the
Federal Reserve discount rate AS
q result of these policies" he con.!n-
ues, Liberty bonds have progress
lively risen in value" and the countrys
business outlook is brighter than at
any time since the mistaken policy
of drastic defiation adopted by these
who were then in control of Govern
ment policies" Had this eXtraordi-
nary description OF economic causes
and effects during the past two years
been made by Senator Hefiin, for In
stance. nobody would have been sur
prsed. Whether the denation of 1920
was "too rapid or not may be n mat
ter Of opinion. But 10 assert that IL
was caused by mistaken policies OF
the Federal Reserve and that the rise
of Liberty bonds was consequence
of the reversal of such policies Is
merely to confess ignorance cf the fl
] nanclal history of the period.
President Harding must have known
that the advance of the New York
| Federal Reserve Bank rate from pei
cent to a.. in November, 1919, TO
| In January, 1920, and 10 at the enc
of May, 1920, was the result OF money

ending OF the speculative craze ana
reduction of overexpanded credit, the
banks reserve ratio had risen from
the 3Sh per cent of 1920 to 651a per
cent, then to 60ls and finally to 81
The reduction was made by precisely
the same Officials az had advanced
the rate In 1920: 1t wae equally the
step which any experienced banker
would have taken In response to gem
eral money market conditions. In so
far as the assent of the Secretary OF
the Treasury was factor either In
the advancing or in the reducing of
the rate, there is not the slightest
doubt that Secretary Houston would
have approved the lower rates in lo2l
and that Secretary Mellon would have
approved the higher rates OF 1920.
AS for the Liberty bonde. Mr.. Hard
ing wholly misses the essential point
that those bonds had fallen To 81
months before the first advance IN
Federal Reserve Bank rates was made
That decline, like tiH subsequent FUR
ther decline to 50, was perfectly well
understood TO reflect tho excessive de
mands on credit which were causing
large holders OF euch bonds to turn
them into cash, even at n sacrifice. II
is true enough that the subsequent
recovery OF tho price to par or higher
was related to the decline in money
rates But to ascribe the rise of the
