Bigger Bank Reserves
Urged by EeeIes TO
Curb Initiation
Says Present Limit
Hos No Effect on
Volume Of Money

BY the Associated Press.
Chairman Mariner S. EccleS Of
the Federal Reserve Board told Con-
gress today that the boards recent
action in raising bank reserve re-
quirements to the legal limit had
had no effect in checking imitation
and that the board should be given
power to increase them further.
Continuing his testimony before
the House Banking Committee on
the administrations price control
bill. Mr.. Eccles said the volume Of
excess reserves was so great. even
after the reserve requirements were
raised to the limit. that the last in
crease had practically no effect"
In response to a question by Rep
resentative Spence. Democrat, Of
Kentucky as to the effect of the
last increase on the volume Of money
available, Mr.. Eccles replied, None.
s5,000,000,000 Excess Reserves.
The Reserve Board chairman
added that before the last increase
in reserve requirements. excess re-
serves in the hands of banks totaled
more than s5.000,000, Boosting
the requirements impounded $780,
900 900. leaving excess reserves Of
upward of $4,000 100000. Mr.. Eccles
said the latter sum was greater than
the banks had at any time during
the last war.
Under the law, banks are now re-
quired to hold on hand as q reserve
against their deposits from IA to IS
per cent of those deposits, depending
on their location.
Mr.. Eccles reiterated that in times
of emergency the Government
should rely heavily on excess profit
taxes and taxes on corporate income
as keystones in balanced tax pro-
gram" He said that If morale
among the people as whole was to
be maintained they should be made
to feel that they are treated with
complete fairness and that corporate
profits are being properly taxed as
corporations have a bigger stake, in
reality, In preservation of the capl-
talist system than do individuals
who are asked to make sacrifices.
Can't Help Companies.
Representative Dewey, Repub-
lican, Illinois. raised the question OF
whether the Federal Reserve Board
or its member banks would be will
ing to help the debt situation OF
companies forced to suspend oper-
ations for lack of raw materials, but
Mr.. Eccles replied that neither the
board nor its member banks had
authority to do so. He pointed out
however, that the Reconstruction
Finance Corp. had ample power tc
make any sort of loan it desired,
State officials and farm organlza-
tions were invited, meanwhile, tc
confer with a Senate agriculture
subcommittee which was appointed
to consider price fixing and farm
parity legislation.
Senator Thomas, Democrat, OF
Oklahoma, subcommittee chairman
said the conference might decide
whether agricultural interests IA
