Nixon's Purchase Plan Faces Final Vote and Delay
Nixon seeks a 10 percent credit in the first year with a 5 percent rate thereafter for new equipment. The effective date is likely April 1, 1871, instead of August 15, 1971. West Germany's Dental Bank acted to stabilize foreign exchange as the dollar slipped amid reports of a possible 15 percent annual revaluation. The Senate securities subcommittee opened a probe into the stock market and the SEC plans a new broker commission schedule after the price freeze ends, reducing some charges for small investors. Consumer groups pressed Nixon at a White House session to ensure fairness and broaden controls on interest rates profits and dividends, urging full participation in the program.
