REPORT VOLUME OF
IDLE BANK FUNDS

Washington, D. C. (ILNS). - The
Federal Reserve Board reports rec
ord-breaking volume of idle bank
funds, sufficient to provide theoretical
credit expansion of $32,700,000,000.
Excess reserves, bank funds avail
able for lending, reached an all-time
high of $4,590, 100000 in the week
ended August 16, the board said
theoretically, banks can make So in
loans for every dollar in reserve but
officials doubted that the full credit
expansion potentialities inherent in
the present huge supply of idle cash
will ever be utilized.
At the same time, the board said
that its index of industrial production
advanced four points in July to 102
per cent of the 1923-1924 average
This compared with SO per cent in
June and 90 in April and May. The
advance reflected chiefly a large in
crease in iron and steel output, which
usually declines at this season.
Recovery is proceeding at steady
but slower pace than few years
hence, officials are unworried, for the
present, at least, about credit infia-
ton.
