Government proposals create 100 million capital bank
A plan would set up a seven member board to run a bank with 100 million dollars capital for 14 year terms and salaries of 15000 or 17500. The bank would issue money, rediscount commercial paper for banks and concentrate the nation’s gold reserves to influence financial conditions.
Vanderlip proposes public stock with government control of currency
Vanderlip outlines a plan where stock is held by the public as an investment security with no voting power. The government would control the system, not banks. He argues bankers would accept it once safeguards for the controlling board appointments are explained, replacing government fiat with true bank notes.
