President to Back
FRB. Broker Saws

If Eisenhower is reelected, the
Federal Reserve Board will re-
tain its independence and the
tight-money situation will con-
tinue for some time. predicted
Bernard J. Nees, partner of
Johnston. Lemon g. Co., here
last night.
K Borrowers will still get needed
money although they may have
to scratch for it and pay higher
rates, he continued. If Steven
son wins, the financial and BUSH
ness community will have to re-
appraise the entire situation, he
said.
Mr.. Nees was a member of a
panel discussing the tight-money
situation at a dinner meeting of
the District Institute Of Certi-
fed Public Accountants at the
Shoreham Hotel.
Ralph Mittendorff, assistant
vice president of American Sc
curity & Trust Co., declared that
tight money is only a reflection
of a physical fact; that demand
has outrun plant capacity. He
said savings has not kept pace
with increasing demand for
money and that to create addi-
tional funds artificially would
only produce more imitation and
higher prices.
Donald B. Hadley, financial
editor Of The Star, third mem
Der Of the panel, pointed out
that despite higher interest rates,
business and industrial activity
in the final quarter Of 1856 will
remain at extremely high levels.
Frank c. Franz, CPA, was
moderator.
