Cortelyou Rescues Anxious Buyers With Rail Bond Plan
The administration seeks to steady markets by accepting United States and various government and high-grade railroad bonds at 90 percent as substitutes for deposits, hoping to boost railroad funds, sustain business, and reinforce investor confidence amid Wall Street panic. Treasury notes indicate deposits may rise, and the policy aims to support railroads while avoiding long term harm. Key bankers warned the move may not satisfy foreign markets, and officials debate the balance between calming panic and enforcing railroad regulations.
