FINANCIERS TRY TO SOLVE FROOLEi.i "Probably the greatest overshad owing influence at the present time is the inability of financial leaders to. agree upon the best method of restoring the country's economic equilibrium," states Walter Brown, editor of the New York Commercial. "One group, under the,, leadership of the federal reserve board. Is holding the interest of the Country in check through the restriction of credits to essential purposes. The tether group, under the leadership of John Skelton Williams, controller of the currency, believes that interest rates ahould be' kept low In order to make borrowing easy, with the idea of encouraging production. In other words, one school of thought proposes to curtail consumption down to the point of production, while the other proposes to Increase production up to the point of consumption. The truth is that if either of theee theories were carried out to a logical, conclusion a serious situation would re sult .forcing a setback from which it might take years to recover. ' "It is. however, wrong to assume that the federal reserve board is making war upon industrwand business and that it advocates , a .policy of curtail ment to an unnatural degree. Tha most" that Governor Harding and his col leagues have tried to undertake is the diversion of funds from non-essential purposes to those of a strictly necessary character in order that the- business of fho country may be carried on upon a sure foundation. It Is all very well to advocate low interest rates in order to make borrowing easy, -but if available funds are scarce low Interest rates will not make the money more plentiful. It Is, as a matter of facL an attempt to make water run up hill, for only , by the offering of higher Interest rates can additional funds be secured. Money is a commodity and the rates to- be paid for Its .Two depend entirely upon the amount of capital available at a par ticular time, on the one hand, and the- Hmncr ui me uorrowvrs uu uib uincr, $50,000 6 Gold Bonds General Obligation CITY- OF SELEQRE - PROVINCE OF MANITOBA Yield 9 Price 93.23 -""'' -V ".'-;- " '" 'I'.:.-:..' n '. -i ". !
