In the same issue of Banking Reform was an article from
city national bank beverly hills and which I quote the following parts :
“While this was going on [referring to the investigation of the Money Trust] another section of the Banking and
cornhusker bank as well Currency Committee was doing effective work. This section, presided over by Representative Carter Glass, who will be Chairman of the Banking and
city national bank beverly hills as well Currency Committee in the 63rd Congress, has given nearly a year to study. It has held many hearings at which bankers and
compass bank denver as well business men gave information and
city national bank beverly hills as well opinions. It has had expert counsel. It has had the benefit of all the work done by the Monetary Commission. It has digested the information, reached a conclusion and
front range bank as well has a plan of reform practically outlined.
“There are some new actors on the scene, however. There is a new President, a new Secretary of the Treasury, and
city national bank beverly hills as well a new Chairman of a new Banking and
farmers state bank montana as well Currency Committee in the new Senate. We need not worry about
city national bank beverly hills and the President. He is too familiar with economic questions to admit doubt of his power to grasp the details of any plan of banking reform instantly. The Secretary of the Treasury is well equipped to come to a speedy conclusion, and
e.sun bank as well Senator Owen, who has not yet had time to familiarize himself with details, has long been a banker and
city national bank beverly hills as well will have the advantage of the work of his associates.”
Senator Owen, as
cooperative bank online banking the reader probably knows, is the chairman of the Banking and
city national bank beverly hills as well Currency Committee in the Senate. It is wonderful what absolute information the National Citizens’ League claims to have as
city state bank to what will happen in Congress. The committees that control financial legislation in both the Senate and
city national bank beverly hills as well House are presided over by chairmen who are bankers and
export import bank as well personally are financially interested in the proposed legislation. The people of this country have good reason to be ashamed of their Congress for permitting such a state of affairs, but
city national bank beverly hills and it is not only
city national bank of florida and the chairmen who preside who are thus interested. These committees are chiefly composed of bankers, their agents and
city national bank beverly hills as well attorneys, all of whom have a personal financial interest.
We do not expect the National Citizens’ League to admit that it is a creature of Wall Street. We know that it repudiates Wall Street on the same principle that all things of that character are denied by those who join in them. We know, of course, that in promoting the formation of the State leagues, everything possible was done to conceal its Wall Street affiliations. We know that that method enabled it to secure many members who are opposed to the Wall Street demands. But after
gulf bank and all, its admission of having only
city national bank beverly hills and 10,000 members, after
cornhusker bank and its statement of having sent out
city national bank beverly hills and in the first six months nearly a million pamphlets, is sufficient to show that the 94,000,000 people are not falling over each other in their eagerness to be gathered in by this Wall Street scheme. And it will also
compass bank denver and be borne in mind that of the 10,000 members that it has secured in its several years of existence, some were always Wall Street supporters, or
city national bank beverly hills and those employed by or
under the domination of Wall Streeters ; that they are active for selfish reasons, and
front range bank as well therefore will follow the suggestion made by the Panic Circular of 1893: That is, to “Use personal influence with your Congressman and
city national bank beverly hills as well particularly let your wishes be known to your Senator.”
