For the first time in history, the Fed
eral Reserve System has raised margin re-
qulrements for the buying of securities. to
one hundred per cent. The action is taken
to halt stock market boom and to pre-
vent use of credit in stock market transac-
tiOnS
Mariner F. Eccles, chairman of the
Reserve Board, who advocated inflationary
measures at the bottom of the depression,
has been an outspoken prophet of trouble
ahead unless the inflationary spiral can
be stopped. He considers the '"vast accum-
ulation of currency and bank deposits" 2as
the primary source of the initiation danger
(which overhangs the domestic economy
on all fronts" He believes that too much
of the war was fiaaAeed@bFs@eemna
bank credits and not enough bvhaAes iald
the savings of the public.
''The supply of money.will continue
to increase" warns Mr.. Eccles, ''as long
as the Treasury monetizes the public debt
through the sale of government securities
through the banking system" He thinks
that the process should be stopped by
bringing about balanced budget" and
through measures to check further un-
necessary expansion of commercial bank
holdings of government securities.
There will be many to applaud Mr..
Eccles's suggestion that the budget should
be balanced. This can be done by cutting
down expenditures and by maintaining
the Governments income. Practically
every business man in the nation is shout
ing for balanced budget but most of them
lay stress upon the cutting of expenditures
and conveniently forget the necessity of
eohfihdsd high taxation>> :
eno EThet'public should not Hose sight Of
the factthat Congress, last year, Instituted
tax reductions which robbed the Federal
Treasury of more than $4,000, 100000 of
estimated income. This was done in spite
of the fact that war expenditures had not
ceased, that the budget was seriously I'M
balanced and that individuals and cor
porations enjoying higher incomes than
usual, were in position to pay the higher
taxes without excessive hardships.
