CONFIDENCE RESTORED IN GENERAL WAY *“Managed Currency” Leg- islation Seems Hav- ing Desired Effect NEW YORK, March 13.—At Jeast some proof of inflationary psychology during the past week, is evident as the result of “managed currency” legislation enacted for| banks. This is seen in the advancing price of seats on commodity ex- changes coupled with higher prices in cash markets for staples. This is regarded by many observ- ers as a consequence of the drastic banking measures taken at Wash- ington . Confidence Restored Most of the banking authorities doubted the currency expansion, as provided by Washington, as in- flationary however, but pointed out that there is a restoration of con- fidence as a result and it might well have some effect upon the markets with all future commodi- ties. Strictly Cash Basis With the markets closed and all dealings on a strictly spot cash basis, such transactions as reported showed substantial advances in many cases, thus the manufacturer or dealer having more than he did a week ago for such commodities, as cotton, wheat, sugar, rubber, copper, lead, zinc, coffee, leather, cocoa and silver, is credited for the most part with speculative buying rather than an actual increased demond from consumers. The prefiiise assumes the dollars | will purchase little less now that the banks have reopened than they did when the banks were sudden- ly closed. N. Y.
