Bankers Debate Federal Reserve Unity at New York Convention
Eugene Meyer Jr of the War Finance Corporation urged welding the U S banking system into a closer unit. He warned that two thirds of banks outside the Fed weaken financial stability and called for a comprehensive, countrywide approach to banking reform. Western bankers forecast steady, not booming, business with strong liquidity and ample credit for farmers. They also argued Europe must pay its US debts, though some favored a gradual approach to avoid harming American finance.
