A lawyer who became a leading industrialist, he is rated as a staunch conservative in financial affairs. He has worked hard to balance the budget, has labored to get more of the national debt funded into long term bonds, has opposed tax cuts that would hurt the treasury position. Just now, however, he is talcing sides against the Federal Reserve Board for its authorization of an other boost in rediscount rates last month. In an address before the National Press Club Humphrey explained his position. He felt that there were certain "downward pressures" which would fend off inflation without the curb of an extra charge for credit. He made it clear however that the FRB was an independent agency, that while the treasury might offer opinions the FRB s job is to make its own ; decision, which is what the FRB lias been doing. The "pressures" which Humph rey noted were the lag in auto sales and a tendency toward in ventory accumulation. There are the "natural conditions" which in his opinion would provide the cor rectives needed in the business world. The secretary went on to emphasize the necessity to main tain confidence on the Dart of business and the general public. Then Humphrey went on to . say : , Confidence is essential to the maintenance of jobs. Our job (Coatinaed editorial page 4.) Rains Wash Idaho; Rivers Start Qimh SALMON.
