Restrictive Credit Policy
Called Good for Economy

A sharp rise in business loans
in the face of a restrictive credit
policy and the encouragement
of rate increases is evidence Of
the force of credit demands, de-
clares the monthly letter of the
First National City Bank Of New
York.
Pointing out that reserve men,
Der banks have increased bust
ness loans no less than SO bill
lion or AZ per cent in the last
20 months, the current bank
letter says this raises the ques-
ton whether the restrictive
credit policy is really working
In this connection it needs to
be borne in mind that the Fed
eral Reserve authorities did not
seriously attempt to restrain
credit until last summer and by
that time the expansion had de-
veloped such momentum that it
has not been easy to slow" it
declares.
The objective Of the author
tiles is not to kill on the boom
but simply to hold credit expan-
sion within limits consistent
with a stable price level, it adds.
I'VE will never know how
much larger the business loan
expansion would have been in
the absence of a restrictive

Professional Election Odds
BY SYLVIA PORTER

| Nevertheless, big-time bookies
still do operate in the canyons
of downtown New York. When
l phoned a few of my informed
sources ! had no trouble getting
the odds and confirming them
And although l don't know
land don't want to know-the
headquarters of the bookieS
when ] asked:
How good chow solid) are
these odds?" the answer was,
ooh, good for thousands of
dollars. In amounts big enough
to satisfy any of your readers"
So that's 1.-THE official quote
as of early September.
Politics is not my field. Any
thing touching on money is
within my sphere, though, and
since betting involves money,
submit this tale.
How do sophisticated f1nan-
ciers interpret these odds? My
conversations brought out these
provocative points.
First. while 4 to l may sound
overwhelming, actually these
odds are narrower than the 5
to l quoted early in the Demo-
cratic convention in Chicago
before Mr.. Stevenson and SEN
ator Kefauver were nominated
and came out pledging an ag-
gressive campaign. AS one in
formant put it. These odds re-
fleet the judgments of men
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-09-05

The professional odds on Pres
ident Eisenhower to win in No
vember are, at the start of the
1856 campaign. quoted in Wall
Street at 4 to /. 3 to /.
In other words, if you want
to bet via professionals that Gen.
Eisenhower will be reelected
you must put down 81 of your
own money to win 81 of your
opponents.
If you want to bet that Adlai
Stevenson will win, you put up
ISL but you can win only SO of
your opponents cash.
This is not the way odds are
quoted on friendly" bets, of
course. This is professional bet
lting-and the difference repre-
lsents the brokers commission.
Betting is illegal in New York.
Officially, no respectable Wall
Streeter would admit even hear
ling election odds; my friends
wouldn't think of publicly con-
firming that they had discussed
