Cortelyou to Aid The Market In New Plan
Secretary Cortelyou announced that starting this week he will place weekly deposits of Government funds in New York, Boston and other cities to prevent money stringency during the crop moving period. The plan aims to head off panic rather than aid a market in distress and may last at least five weeks with funds drawn from the normal balance if needed. It seeks to deter speculators by not preannouncing deposit amounts and may prevent a gold movement to Europe. Also reported: Salt Lake City residents have bought 3000 to 4000 acres in Muddy Valley near Las Vegas, Lincoln County, to colonize the land. the valley yields fruit and vegetables, with notable shipments of cantaloupes and cucumbers showing strong markets.
