Henry Morgenthau Jr visits Warm Springs to brief President Roosevelt on evolving treasury actions. The report highlights: reserve banks selling rather than buying government bonds, opposition to the gold standard relaxation by the Federal Reserve Advisory Council, Morgenthau’s exclusion from meetings with the Federal Reserve Board, and treasury support for the bond market via postal savings, farm credit, and the federal deposit insurance fund.
