Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, August 29.-Announce-
nent of the resignation OF Roy A. Young
as governor Of the Federal Reserve
Board to accept a position as governor
of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston
has caused o revival of discussion in
Wall Street of Federal Reserve policy
during the last two years.
The policy pursued by the Federal
Reserve Board In 1928 and 1929 fire.
quently has been held to blame for the
big crash in the stock market last Fall
1t was alleged that the board erred first
in 1923, when it deliberately adopted
measures to keep money rates down
supposedly to facilitate exports of gold
to Europe with view to assisting for
eign countries to strengthen their bank
ing structure. BY adopting such a
policy the board, 1t was commended, en-
boldened spectators in this country to
proceed with plans to create the biggest
imitation of Stock Exchange prices and
brokers loans ever known.
The discount Rate.
The second count against the board
was that last year, after it had become
apparent that a dangerous condition OF
credit imitation and security prices had
DSGn CTedGeQ, IL WAS QuhOOIy III Jdhllle
direct action to check the movement by
authorizing advances in discount rates
1t was revealed, subsequent to the stock
market break, that at least three re-
serve banks had sought permission early
last year to boost their rates to pei
cent to halt credit imitation, but that
the board refused to approve their ap-
plicatiens. Finally when the board did
authorize such advances last August the
action came too late to avoid the stock
market panic that ensued.
While few believe that crash could
have been avoided, the contention has
been that by acting more promptly the
Federal Reserve Board could have mtti-
gated the violence OF the break and pre-
vented the wholesale losses suffered by
the public.
TO be perfectly fair to the Reserve
Board, it must be admitted that Gov:
Young and his associates early showed
that they were not blind to the perils
of the situation; they merely differed
from other bankers regarding the cor
rect method of coping with them. Gov.
Young for months prior to the crash
