Dear Judge Collets
In view of your interest and hea^ry responsibilities in connection with the stabilisation program, you might oare to see the enclosed
statement if i t has not previously come to your
attention.
I t was given out as lay own cossaent on
the Board's aotion in raising margin requirements
to the 100 per cent limit. I felt i t desirable
to try to put the aotion in focus and to point
out incidentally the serious problem arising f roaa
needless creation of bank credit.
Sincerely yours.
