To Stem Flow
0fU.S. Dollars
Lag in Statistics
May Conceal
Effect of Action
BY TRUMAN TEMPLE
Star stan Writer

Efforts by European countries
to halt the influx of "hot
money" from the United States
may be taking effect-but they
won't show up in statistics until
after President Kennedy as
sumes Office.
In ecent weeks Britain,
France and Germany took steps
to lower the interest rates that
have lured capital away from
this country. But the lag in
statistics conceals how effee-
tive this may have been.
Only last week, figures were
released on the United States
balance of payments for July to
September. The crucial story
on 1960's final quarter won't
be known until next March.
Short Term Yields
"Hot money" refers to easily
moved funds that seek the
highest possible yield on 9
short-term basis-around three
months. An American corpora.
ton with, say. a million dollars
in cash to buy raw materials
is a potential source of hot
money-particularly this yeal
when many companies have cut
down on inventory orders and
have extra cash to put to work
How many company dollars
have been going abroad this
fall for investment in foreign
government securities? Some
economists think it's hundreds
of millions, or even a billion.
But a trickle Of evidence in
dicates the hot money exodus
is now slackening. One clue Is
the British pound. Its price or
the open market has dropped
slightly. in terms Of dollars
and cents, the last few weeks
This indicates less demand
by investors for British cur
rency. And since you neec

bills, observers think Yankee
interest in them is waning
There will be a clearer picture
next March when the figure
are published on balance o
payments-meaning the differ
ence between payments to anC
from foreigners.

short-term securities highe
