Bankers Urge Tax Cut and Higher Interest Rates
The American Bankers Association urged a cut in income tax and higher interest rates to curb the persistent drain on U S gold reserves.

The article notes the long running deficit in international payments, dropping U S gold stocks from 22 billion to 13.7 billion, with a $3.9 billion deficit in 1960 and a shift to $3.2 billion annual rate in the first quarter of the current year.
