Statutory Reserve controls may still exist but so does the banks' ability to
create the major portion of the money supply. If the controls were such that
they stopped banks from creating credit (money) unless they held the
equivalent money in their possession I fail to see what is the point of
continuing to point out that there are controls. The controls are on limits
to increases not the ability to increase.
