C., September 23.— Gloomy forebodings of last winter with respect to the banking situation are no longer justified and can be dis. missed, Gov. Harding of the Federal Reserve Board declared in an address here last night at the Made-in-Caro- linas Exposition, “The banking situation has greatly improved,” Mr. Harding said, “and ai- | = though the process of readjustment |E has not been completed evidences are | = multiplying that the corner has been |E turned ‘and that we have passed the most acute stage of the readjustment period.” Gov.

Harding continued, “that in order to maintain our production we must push our foreign trade. We cannot main- tain our foreizn trade on the basis of the gold stock of other nations, and some means must be devised for ex- tending long-time credits abroad or of interesting American investors in for- elgn properties and securities in order ‘that “the exchange rate, which now runs =o heavlly against other nnllom!.z may be corrected.

The recent advance in the price o cotton was in no way due to any in crease in the loans of federal reserv banks or to any expansion in the cur- rency, Gov. Harding declared, but to operation of the inevitable law of sup- ply and demand. Federal reserve notes actually in circulation, he said, were about $500,000,000 less than when cot- ton reached its lowest point last spring. Gov. Harding spoke at length in ex planation of the workings of the fed eral reserve system, about which, he | sald, there was “a surprising lack of | = knowledge.” Any bellef that there was a preordained contraction of the currency during 1920 to reduce price: is “absolutely unwarranted,” he said. “It is not the function of the fed eral reserve system, or of any banking system to attempt to fix or contro the governor continue: ML T e L in so far as the security of their loans may be involved, and they are inter- ested more in the stability of prices and their margin of coilateral than the price level itself.

Since that time the volume of federal re- serve notes in circulation has been greatly reduced until September 14, 1921, it stood at $2,491,661,000. “The volume of federal reserve notes depends entirely upon the ac- | They are issued only as need for them develops and as they become redundant in any lo- cality they are returned for credit The increase in volume of federal reserve notes in circulation from 1917 to the end of 1920 was, in 8o far as it was not the result of direct exchanges for gold and gold certificates, the effect of ad- vancing wages and prices and not their cause.
