Service, Incl
The rise in brokers loans In the
second week after the inaugur-
alton OF the new program OF the
Federal Reserve authorities EN-.
phasizes the purely experimental
character Of the new double edged
policy.
In raising the rediscOunt rats
from s to 8 per cent, while cut
ting the buying rate on accept.
ance from ~ to 51s per cent, the
Federal Reserve sought to influ.
ence the use Of bank credit, favor.
ing the businss man and agricul-
turist and penalizing the specula-
tor.
It remains to be seen whether
credit can be so earn1arked; 1t il
very doubtful whether it can.
Nevertheless, the double edged
policy was ingenious, inasmuch az
1t was intended as q moral offset
to the seasonal policy Of easement
started In conpection with the
movement Of crops and the
autumn trade expansion.
To Protect New Funds
Usually. the Federal Reserve
begins to pump about $50, 900, 900
Of additional Federal Reserve
credit into the market about this
time Of the year, and the author.
tiles were anxious that the addi-
tional funds he used for business
and agriculture, and not for
securities speculation.
Nevertheless, after one weeks
recession, brokers' loans continued
their advance to unprecedented
peaks. Spectators are more sen.
sitive to the meaning of changes
in credit policy than so-called legit-
innate operators, and are the first
I to take advantage Of new condi-
tons.
Ultimately, the Federal Reserve,
unless It Is willing to abandon its
restrictive policy, may have to re-
sort to still higher rediscount
rate, though an advance during
the period of fall commercial ex-
pansion would be untimely. The
logical time for the Federal Re-
serve to renew its aggressive tao
tics against the Wall Street bulls
would be after the turnI Of the
year. when there would be no dan.
ger of starving legitimate busi-
ness.
Vital To Business
The attempt to segregate pools
Of credit, earmarking some for
business as opposed to speculation,
represents an attempt to carry
political lreconceptions into the
field of economic activity. As q
matter OF fact, the stock market
is itself vital part Of the business
world, ultimately rejecting the
prospects for business growth or
recession.
Furthermore. It II erroneous to
assume that the stock market
necessarily diverts credit from bust
ness. It is, in fact. q channel for
drawing capital to business.
In the last year, through the sale
Of additional stock. corporations
have financed near-term expansion
ana have anticipated future re.
Quirements for funds.
The chief barriers to further
advances In stock prices are the
credit situation and high quota
tions. On the other hand, the
high level Of business profits for
dominant corporations and the
good prospects for the remainder
Of the year at least generate opti.
mistic sentiment.
