Yegen Sees Need to Cut Discount Rates to Boost Recovery
Montana pioneer banker Christian Yegen, back from Washington, says only a lower discount rate on Liberty bonds and negotiable paper can avert lasting financial strain. He notes banks from Chicago to Boston face funds shortages due to high rates, while southern banks show mixed relief amid cotton crop trouble. He urges a federal reserve policy shift to restore confidence and liquidity, including a 4 percent cap, to end deflation fears and revive business across the country.
