Reserves Policies Adopted to Prevent Bank Collapse
The Associated Press reports that 1919 and 1920 reserve bank policies aimed to avert collapse of the United States banking system and succeeded. Governor Harding testified before a joint congressional committee, saying the board did not push prices up or down but stood ready to meet a world price break and expand credit. He denied that reserve policy fated cotton prices and blamed advisers for cotton farmers' 1920 hardships, noting others bore responsibility for producers' sales failures.
