Chairman William McChesney
Martin, ir.. OF the Reserve Board
has told Congress since then he
would be willing to accept stand
by control powers. but indicated
he thought their use should be
confined to emergencies such as
the Korean War.
Reserve Board Member j. K.
Vardaman said in a recent
speech TO a bankers meeting In
Georgia that he. too. felt that
direct controls over consumer
credit should only be used in a
grave national emergency.
Credit Insurance Discussed
However, Mr.. Vardaman
added that "as time passes you
may expect the Government to
take cognizance Of consumer
credit as it has housing credit. /"
Mr.. Vardaman went on to sug-
gest that the Government might
eventually underwrite consumer
credit in somewhat the same way
as 1t now insures mortgage
credit. He said one objective Of
this would be to assure stead
lily expanding consumer A.
nancing.
It was learned that Mr.. Varda-
mans speech was not cleared
