Reserve Head Denies Rift With Treasury
Washington reports say with the dollar stronger abroad the administration kept the domestic gold price at 33.76 an ounce, unchanged for three days, while the dollar opened at 5.19 to the pound and London gold priced 32.83. Governor Black of the Federal Reserve Board rejected claims of a rift with the treasury, citing no connection between policy and open bond market actions. He noted weekly bond purchases had fallen from 35 million to 2 million and attributed a week’s decline to a repurchase agreement with an agricultural agency. Since May 1 the Fed has bought 594 million in government bonds to put excess funds into the market, totaling 850 million, to stimulate credit and keep funds available for expansion.
