    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.

  • Currency Vs. Banking in the Financial Crisis of 1931∗
    Crisis? What Crisis? Currency vs. Banking in the Financial Crisis of 1931∗ Albrecht Ritschl Samad Sarferaz LSE and CEPR ETH Zurich Dept. of Economic History KOF Swiss Economic Institute Houghton Street Weinbergstrasse 35 London WC2A 2AE, UK 8092 Zurich, Switzerland Phone: +44-20-7795-6482 Phone: +41-44-632-4683 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] December 2, 2010 Abstract This paper examines the role of currency and banking in the German financial crisis of 1931 for both Germany and the U.S. We specify a structural dynamic factor model to identify financial and monetary factors separately for each of the two economies. In contrast to conventional wisdom, we find only a minor role for monetary policy transmission, while financial distress was important. Monetary or financial crisis prop- agation from the U.S. to Germany was weak. Instead there is evidence of substantial crisis transmission from Germany to the U.S. via the banking channel. We also find major real effects of the 1931 crisis on both economies, again transmitted via the bank- ing channel. Financial distress itself responded more strongly to real than to monetary factors. Results confirm Bernanke's (1983) conjecture that a non-monetary financial channel of crisis propagation was operative in the Great Depression. JEL: N12, N13, E37, E47, C53 Keywords: Great Depression, banking channel, 1931 financial crisis, international business cycle transmission, factor analysis ∗This research was funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft under Collaborative Research Project SFB 649.
