    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.

    State of Tennessee Department of State Tennessee State Library and Archives 403 Seventh Avenue North Nashville, Tennessee 37243-0312 ROBERT H. CARTMELL (1828-1915) PAPERS 1849-1915 Processed by: Harriet Chappell Owsley Archival Technical Services Accession Numbers: 1968.27; 1974.142 Date Completed: 1974 Location: XVII-D-2-3 Microfilm Accession Number: 1076 MICROFILMED INTRODUCTION These are the diaries and other papers of Robert H. Cartmell (1828-1915), Madison County farmer. The papers are composed of an account book, clippings, letters, and thirty-three volumes of Mr. Cartmell’s diaries (the first four volumes of which have been typed and edited by Emma Inman Williams). There are two photographs of Mr. Cartmell. Beginning in 1853, the diaries contain full commentaries on the nature of his farm operation, the weather, and the fluctuations of the cotton market. They contain thoughtful comments on politics and candidates for office and opinions on matters of public interest, such as the price of cotton, slavery, abolition, railroads, agricultural meetings, state fairs, prohibition, religion, secession, the Union, and conditions in Madison County during and after the Civil War. The diaries during the war years are filled with accounts of battles and the movements of Federal armies stationed in west Tennessee. Except for a break from May, 1867 to January,1879, the journals are faithfully kept and rich with information through the early years of the twentieth century. Descriptions of farming have many interesting details, and the views expressed on public affairs are both literate and well-informed. The materials in this finding aid measures 2.1 linear feet.

    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION Around 1911, Maḥmūd Nedīm Bey, from 1913 the last Ottoman gov- ernor-general of Yemen, met in Cairo with Horatio Herbert Kitchener, then Britain’s pro-consul in Egypt.1 When the conversation turned to the difficulties of the Ottoman central government with ending oppo- sition to its rule over this southernmost province of the Ottoman Empire, Kitchener offered this advice: “In the Red Sea region, there are French, Italian, and English colonies. If you were to study these colo- nies . and see what has been done and what is being done there, your job would be rendered much easier.” Then he drove his point home 1 In his memoirs, Maḥmūd Nedīm does not specify when exactly this conversation took place. It must have occurred between 1911 when Kitchener took up his post as British consul-general and agent in Egypt and the summer of 1914 when he became secretary of state for war. Maḥmūd Nedīm (1865–1940) was born in Damascus in AMal 1281 (beginning 13 March 1865), the son of a provincial administrator. He was educated at a rüşdīye school (advanced primary school) in Tripoli (Ṭrāblusşām) and entered provincial officialdom at age twelve, as an apprentice clerk. From 1880 to 1894, Maḥmūd Nedīm held positions in the provincial judiciary, in the Hijaz and in Yemen, including as president of the commercial court of Ḥudayda (August 1886–Decem- ber 1887 and April 1888–January 1889) and of Jidda (January 1889–March 1892 and December 1892–September 1894). Starting with two short terms as deputy district governor (ḳāymaḳām vekīli) of Jidda (July–October 1892 and May–October 1893) he continued to work as a provincial administrator for the rest of his professional life.
