FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD DETERMINED TO RESTORE CREDIT
(By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON. Feb. 24 Determination of the federal reserve board to exert the full power of the reserve banking system In regulating and controlling the credit situation a course designed to aid commerce and industry in restoring a pre-war equilibrium was disclosed in the board's annual report, made public today. With this as Its announced peacetime policy, the board was prepared to "test the ability of the system to check expansion and to induce healthy liquidation." The board explained it was aware of the implied power to rectify the condition which confronts the country. This power necessarily followed the authority for and empayment of an elastic system of reserve credit and note issue, it was added. Ask Power for Banks. Recommendations also were made to congress for amendment of the reserve act which would permit reserve banks, with approval of the federal reserve board, to establish normal maximum lines of credit accommodation for member banks. An ascending scale of rates would be provided in event money was borrowed above the maximum line. This, the board believed, would induce banks to hold their own large borrowers in check and thus work to the end that credit expansion on a large scale would be stopped. Warning was given that the county must guard against too rapid deflation. While the board was in entire sympathy with measures to overcome this evil, it pointed out that remedies employed to correct deflation might create conditions worse than deflation itself. Deflation Alone Not Remedy. "Deflatio merely for the sake of de
flation, and a speedy return to 'normal' deflation merely for the sake of , restoring security values and com
modity prices to their pre-war levels without regard for other consequences would be an insensate proceeding In
the existing posture of world affairs,"
j the report said.
"It must not be forgotten that industry is profoundly affected by credit conditions. Modern business is done on credit. One of its life-giving principles is credit. "The ultimate test of a credit system must be found in what it does to promote and increase the production of goods. True in general the truth of this observation deserves to be particularly emphased in the present deranged state of world industry and trade when production is the crying need of the hour everywhere." In explanation of its increase in discount rates, the board said that this had been the traditional method of credit control.
