RESERVE BOARD
AGAIN RULES
MARKET
BY NJ. 8. RUKEYsER


4 The Federal Reserve Board has
decided not to throw up the sponge
IN the tussle with Wall Street
bulls.
That Is the meaning OF the rise
m the rediscount rate OF the Fed
aral Reserve Bank Of New York
from 8 to per cent. At last,
after months of ominous delay, the
/ central board of strategy at the
Capital has yielded to the judg.
M1ant Of the regional bank in New
York at the money center.
The increase means that within
the Federal Reserve Board the mi.
nority Of one, originally consisting
OF Edmund Platt, of Poughkeep.
sie, has at length become the
majority. For months. Platt has
unreserVedIy advocated raising
the rediscount rate a full per
cent In order to discourage the
increase in brokers' loans. But
until this week he was outvoted
ny his colleagues. Charles s.
Hamlin, 1t is understood, was on
the fence for some time, regard
ing the alternative practice of
0irect action as a pure expert
D1ent.
For many weeks the Street had
rumors each Thursday that there
would be an increase in the redis-
count rate, but day before yester.
DAY the Street heard sigularly few
of such rumors. The speculative
amateur was caught wholly un.
prepared.
!. The immediate cause of the rate
increase was unquestionably the
steady rise of brokers' loans in re.
cent weeks to unprecedented
heights. Brokers' loans are now
some $3.50, 200, 900 higher than thew
were when strong warnings were
issued by the Federal Reserve
Board last February. Thew now
stand $227 100000 higher than on
March 20. which was the peak for
eil time until recent weeks.
superficial traders may regard
the nianeuver as a radically new
element in the financial situation.
but in reality the rate increase A.
merely belated official recogni.
tion OF credit conditions long ex.
isting.
The rate rise imposed fresh
nardships on London and other
financial money centers, which
have been drained of LIQUID funds
by the magnet of high interest
rates in New York. However, it
should be borne in mind that it is
the open market rate on accept.
ances and the call money rate,
rather than the rediscount rate.
which pulls funds here. The redis-
count rate, which has been out OF
hne for months. has at last been
brought in line.
In raising the rate first at New
York instead of elsewhere. as has
been frequently done in the past.
the Federal Reserve Board left no
doubt Of its intention to discipline

ARCTIC TRAVELLER
 STUNNED BY \ RAY
 NORTHERN LIGHTS

The following relates a little story as told the Gateway by Jean s. LeRouge, Alaska born, who is now Outside enjoying well-earned vacation:
 While located at Nigaluk, at the mouth of the Colville River, in 1893, I had the following ex- perience which was unusual to say the least:
 "The Northern Lights are very strong and travel low in the Arctic. We had several dog teams out on the tundra and the lights were shooting about in all di- rections. We could hear them cracking and snapping like machine guns.
 "At the time referred to we were directly in the midst of an immense beam; it came along at a terrific speed and smote us like a hurricane knocking us off our sleds. The dogs ran in all directions and the minute I got to my feet I saw the light speed ing inland.
 1T have never told anyone about this because I did not know what to make of it until a few years ago when a man over in the Kotzebue Sound re- zion had the same eXperlence and published it in some maga- zine.
 "I am perfectly certain now that at that time Northern Light ray hit us. In any case l am informing your readers the truth of the circumstances sur rounding the peculiar incident.

SULLIVAN FAMILY
 RETURN ID VALDEZ

For an altogether too brief a period Seward citizens enjoyed the visit of the Harvey Sullivan family who, on Saturday, de- parted for their home in Val dez, Marshal Sullivan having completed his work here in con- nection with the term of the district court.
 The Sullivans were here for several weeks and the residents of Seward became very well ac- ouainted with them, especially Mrs. Sullivan, a most charming lady; and her lovely children.
