ReserVePoIicy
Eased Rates
Witness SAYS
By the Associated Press

The Federal Reserve System
wasn't primarily trying to low
er interest rates when it re-
Sumed buying long-term Gov
ernment bonds but the policy
switch has had some easing
effect. Congress was told yes
terday.
Robert G. Rouse, manager of
the systems open market ac-
count. reported that outcome
in testimony to the Joint Sen
ate-House Economic Commit
tee.
Under long questioning as to
whether interest rates have
been reduced for the benefit of
home owners and borrowers
generally, Mr.. Rouse said the
policy as expressed by Chair
man William McChesney Mar
tin, ir., is: "The Federal Re-
serve is not trying to set any
particular level, but to influ-
ence the flow of funds in do
mestic and international chan
nels." One consideration, Mr..
Rouse said, is the outflow of
gold and dollars from the
United States.
Mr.. Martin, him self, is
scheduled to appear before the
committee today.
When Senator Bush, Repub-
lican of Connecticut, suggested
there has been little percepti-
BILE change in interest rates
since the Federal Reserve re-
Sumed long-term buying on
February 20, Mr.. Rouse insist
ed it is misleading to judge
Federal activities in terms of
interest rates, but he agreed
that there is an incidental in
fluence. He testified also that
probably some home mortgages
have been obtained which
would not otherwise have been
possible"
Finally, Mr.. Rouse said that
in judging interest rates dur
ing the last few months, the
effect of better business and
more employment must be con-
Sidered. These normally would
be expected to push rates up,
but instead they have remained
generally level, he said.
The Federal Reserves activi-
ties in support of Government
securities, confined during
much of Former President Eli
administration to
purchase Of Short-term obliga-
lions, have long been a parti-
san issue in Congress. Some
Democrats have contended the
system, although it declares
itself independent, supported
what they called the Eisenhow-
er tight money policy.
