    X-6737 TUB DISCOUNT RATE CONTROVERSY BETWEEN THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD and THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF NEW YORK -1- November [1st approx., 1930. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York, in its Annual Report for the year 1929, stated: "For a number of weeks from February to May, 1929, the Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York voted an increase in the discount rate from 5% to 6%. This increase was not approved by the Board." Annual Report, Page 6. ~2~ The above statement makes clear the error of the prevailing view that the discount rate controversy lasted from February 14, 1929, - the date of the first application for increase in discount rates, - to August 9, 1929, the date of the Board's approval of the increase from 5% to 6%. The controversy began on February 14, 1929, but practically ended on May 31, 1929. On May 22, 1929, Governor Harrison and Chairman McGarrah told the Board that while they still desired an increase to 6%, they found that the member banks, under direct pressure, feared to increase their borrowings, and that they wanted to encourage them to borrow to meet the growing demand for commercial loans. 16 Diary 76 (69). Furthermore, on May 31, 1929, Chairman McGarrah wrote to the Federal Reserve Board that the control of credit without increasing discount rates Digitized for FRASER http://fraser.stlouisfed.org/ Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis X-6737 - 2 - (direct pressure) had created uncertainty; that agreement upon a program to remove uncertainty was far more important than the discount rate; that in view of recent changes in the business and credit situation., his directors believed that a rate change now without a mutually satis- factory program, might only aggravate existing tendencies; that it may soon be necessary to establish a less restricted discount policy in order that the member banks may more freely borrow for the proper conduct of their business:; that the Federal reserve bank should be prepared to increase its portfolio if and when any real need of doing so becomes apparent.

  • Dietz, Cyrus E 1928-1929
    Cyrus E. Dietz 1928-1929 © Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission Image courtesy of the Illinois Supreme Court Cyrus Edgar Dietz was born on a farm near Onarga, Illinois, a town on the Illinois Central Railroad in Iroquois County on March 17, 1875. At the peak of a highly successful career as a prominent attorney, he won a seat on the Supreme Court only to die of injuries sustained in an equestrian accident barely nine months after his swearing-in, making his tenure one of the shortest in the Court’s history. His parents were Charles Christian Dietz and Elizabeth Orth Dietz. He was the youngest of eight children. His father was born in Philadelphia of Alsatian background. His mother came from a Moravian family that settled in Pennsylvania in the early eighteenth century. Elizabeth Orth Dietz’s uncle was Godlove Orth, a friend of Abraham Lincoln’s during the Civil War, a prominent lawyer in Indiana, serving in the state legislature, in the United States House of Representatives, and as minister to the court of Vienna.1 His education began at the Grand Prairie Seminary at Onarga. From there he went to Northwestern University and majored in speech and law, obtaining his Bachelor of Law degree in 1902. His brother Godlove Orth Dietz graduated with him.2 While pursuing his double-major at Northwestern, he also played fullback for the university football team, an effort that earned him All-American status in 1901.3 2 After graduation he stayed near Northwestern to practice law in the Chicago office of William Dever, who would later become mayor of Chicago in the 1920s.

  • Lovestone Becomes a Lovestoneite, 1928–9
    chapter 13 Lovestone Becomes a Lovestoneite, 1928–9 Late 1928 to early 1929 was Lovestone’s apex. The anti-Trotsky campaign was integral to his tenure as party leader. Many of the leaders of the campaign would soon be purged themselves. By supporting Bukharin at the same time as Stalin was preparing an attack on the head of the Comintern, Lovestone sowed the seeds of his own downfall. Lovestone had genuine affinities to Bukharin, but he also miscalculated in his attempt to position himself with the Comintern leadership. Lovestone had attacked Lozovsky, Stalin’s ally, for ‘making a muddle of nearly everything he has touched’, and at the last meet- ing of the Senioren Convent (comprising high-ranking Comintern leaders), Lovestone attacked the ‘corridor congress’ against Bukharin, compelling Stalin to deny any breach between the two Russian leaders. Meanwhile the campaign against the ‘right danger’ in the Comintern increased; Lovestone’s fixation with Cannon—and his attacks on Foster and Bittelman—left him open to criticism as a ‘rightist’.1 Engdahl, in a cable from Moscow, indicated ‘general approval here [about] Cannon expulsion’, but stressed that the ‘party must emphasize more how- ever [the] struggle against right danger while fighting Trotzkyism’. Some in the Comintern attacked the Daily Worker’s coverage of the expulsions as ‘mostly selfpraise and going [to] ridiculous extremes’. Couching himself in Comintern rhetoric, Lovestone argued that fighting Cannon and Trotskyism was part of the fight against the ‘right danger’. According to a motion by the leadership of the Young Workers’ (Communist) League: ‘In the American Party at the present time, the Right danger is represented sharply by the Trotskyists’.

Although John Scopes was convicted of teaching evolution in a dramatic twelve-day trial, the matter wasn’t settled, of course. The debate over evolution, and whether an irreconcilable divide exists between religion and science, has continued to this day.
