INCREASES IN u. S. RESERVE
BANK CREDIT HELD TRADE AID
Recent Gain in Holdings of Acceptances
and Government Securities Declared
Factor In Encouraging Business.

Many investors throughout the coun-
try have in recent months adopted a
wait and see" policy In the Invest
ment Of new funds. The result Of this
policy has been 10 force United States
Government securities and other gilt
edge bonds TO unusually high price
levels, while a great body of lesser
known. but sound bonds have been de-
clining steadily. An easing OF credit
through the purchase Of additional
amounts of United States Government
bonds and acceptances by the Federal
Reserve Banks would greatly stimulate
he market for these lesser known bends,
and would thus enable many smaller, but
sound, companies TO finance their op-
erations on q permanent and satisfac-
tory basis.
1.-THE United States is regarded as the
financial leader that can point the way
to world economic recovery. Its pres
ent gold reserves Of approximately $4,-
900 100000 are twice as large as those
of France, the country with the next
| largest reserves. Our gold supply more
over, is almost as large as the amount
of our currency in circulation and
hence can support the worlds largest
credit structure. In addition, we con-
troll greater world markets and financial
operations, and have SURPRISES of most
commodities available for domestic and
foreign distribution on Ine recurrence OIL
| normal purchasing power.
THE Federal Reserve System has
relied chiefly on the lowering of the
redi5connt rate to gr"dr"l1v improve
the nations business. As this has made
! avallaD.e Id,,l $3.50 -.ni .oans IoT
industry some benefit has resulted, but
| not to the extent that had been ex-
| pected. Member banks have been loath
to present their loans for rediscount
and as Q result total rcdiscolnts OF
member banks with the Federal Reserve
System have declined from $768 1922 00C
on December IL, 1929, when the cur
rent depression had set in, to $257 ,O97,-
900 a year later.
Increase in Holdings.
This drastic decline in the use OF
such credit facilities was partly offset
by an increase of more than $225, 900 0O1
in holdings of u. S. Government
securities by the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn. Between December IL, 1929, and
the same date this year, the volume OF
banks dropped from approximately
81, 800 900 900 to about 81, 100, 900 600
The circulation of Federal Reserve
notes declined from $1eI8,3140O tc
LAS, 745 900 In this period, a con-
traction of nearly IS ger cent.
1T Is commended that If the Federal
Reserve System should purchase ad-
ditional holdings Of Government bonds
sizeable gold movements TO other
countries, especially France, would fol-
low. This is not likely. Those coun.
tries during the present year have
maintain an easier money policy
than our own. They would probably
be prompted to take some similar action
for relieving credit Since the present
depression is world wide, it is probable
that any action undertaken to brinr
about business upturn In our owT
country would tend to accelerate Z
| similar movement in all other countries.

NEW YORK, December l9.-The in
crease Of more than $125,O0O,0o0 in
credit extended by the Federal Reserve
Banks in the past three weeks indicates
a possible change in policy which, II
continued, cannot fail to improve buSi-
ness generally through stabilizing the
general price level of both securities and
commodities, according to e. @. Diefen-
bach, president, @. E. Barrett & Co.
Up to the latter part of November,
Mr.. Diefenbach states, total credit ex-
tended by the Federal Reserve Banks
had remained at approximately 81 ,000,-
O00,0 since last March, having de-
clined from about 81 500 900 900 in No
vember, 1929. If the Federal Reserve
Banks continue to ease credit conditions
through the further increase OF their
holdings of acceptances and Govern
ment Securities, and If member banks
throughout the country adopt a policy
for easing credit locally and increasing
money In circulation, business will
gradually find use for the increasing
funds available. This should create a
renewed demand and result in firmer
prices for securities and commodities.
Fear Of HOarding.
whatever may be the explanation
Gripping of world industry and trade, d"
Mr.. Diefenhach observes, lone funda-
mental reason for continued delay in
recovery is the fear of shortage and
consequent boarding of gold by certain
nations, with resulting impairment OF
credit.
This idea has been expounded indie
pendently by number of the worlds
leading economists. notably Gustav Cas-
sci, Sir Josiah Stamp. T. z. Gregory
and Irving Fisher. These authorities
and financial mechanism is functioning
poorly, due partly to a lack of lubrica-
ton in international credit facilities.
"The Federal Reserve Bank is in
position to do more toward aneviating
the present crisis than any other ma
tons central banking organization
While some easing of credit normally
occurs at this season Of the year, 1t Is
believed that the present trend has been
prompted by worldwide tnsistence that
the Federal Reserve Bank exercise the
financial responsibility which world
conditions have imposed. This can be
done by the Federal Reserve loanine
funds to member banks or by purchas-
ing additional aceeptances and Govern
ment securities.
"The quickest and most effective OF
these methods appears to be through
the purchase of Government securities
by the Federal Reserve. If this were
undertaken, several times the amount
of any such purchases would be i'm
mediately put in circulation, thus slim
ulating the market for leading groups
of bonds and liberating large accumula-
lions of capital for constructive business
purposes. Moreover, this assumption OF
financial leadership by the Federal Re-
serve System would, infuse confidence
in the member banks throughout the
country that for more than year have
been awaiting signs of constructive
guidance toward business recovery.
