Reagan surprises everyone

By EDWARD THORLUND President Reagan surprised some when he spoke so bluntly against the lobbying efforts of the banking industry recently, and, in effect, told bankers to get interest rates down further. That the president would take on such a powerful Republican constituency was interesting — and it showed how deeply committed to lower interest rates he is. Reagan probably has most economists on his side today, in his belief that interest rates can and will go down for most of the rest of this year. But they may not go down much. A minority are saying rates will turn upward again in late 1983, and a greater number are of the opinion that they’ll go up again at least by 1984 if the federal deficit isn’t reduced. What lies behind the majority new that interest rates can and will go down in the next few months is the severity of the recession, the softness and slack still in the economy, even though recovery is underway.

There is now an ample money supply — in the view of the majority — to keep the recovery moving. But the Federal Reserve Board, which has been allowing that supply to grow since mid--1982, will eventually apply some brakes. The concern of a sizeable body of economists is that the Fed will apply brakes too soon and stall recovery. These economists believe the recession was so severe, it’ll take a full year to restore confidence in buyers and sellers. Paul Volcker, head of the Reserve Board, is the key. He is charged with having held the brakes on too long, in 1981-82, thus deepening this recession. If he should act, again, conservatively, it might check recovery. The Reagan Administration wants Volcker to be liberal with the money supply. But Volcker is fully independent.
