Aldrich Bill Sparks Debate On Emergency Currency Costs
Senator Simmons of North Carolina spoke on the Aldrich currency bill, estimating that issuing emergency currency would cost banks 8.5 to 9 percent, rising to 9 to 9.5 percent, with profit unachievable below 10 to 10.5 percent. He warned the plan would force Southern banks to accept a loan loss of 1 to 4 percent to secure government deposits, and noted current demand is for funding farmers Autumn and Winter needs. He criticized the bill’s banking expansion and warned the money in circulation could be priced at a high rate, stressing the panic did not create demand for more money. He urged caution as the bill would push costly, nonviable money to farmers.
