Book The Romance and Tragedy of Banking

Download or read book The Romance and Tragedy of Banking written by Thomas P. Kane and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance and Tragedy of Banking: Problems and Incidents of Governmental Supervision of National Banks Some years ago at a banquet given by the Bankers' Association of the District of Columbia, I sat next to an eminent jurist of the District Bar. During the course of the evening our conversation drifted to the subject of the Currency Bureau and its management, and after relating to him some of the difficulties and situations which frequently confront the Comptroller of the Currency in his supervision of the national banks, he remarked that there must have come to my knowledge during my long connection with the service many incidents similar to those related which would make a very interesting narrative if assembled in book form. This suggestion, therefore, is responsible for the publication of this volume, and is my apology for writing it. It is not an essay on banking and currency, nor a discussion of financial or economic theories. It is simply a narrative of events of more or less importance and interest in the history of the National Currency Bureau with some original deductions and comments. It contains many unvarnished truths, plainly told, with no attempt at literary excellence. It deals with men and measures, methods and motives in connection with the administration of the bureau, with no intention of contrasting one administration with another or of drawing invidious distinctions between them. It endeavors to right some wrongs where injustice has been done and to correct some erroneous impressions as to the powers and duties of the Comptroller of the Currency. In May, 1886, I was tendered and accepted the position of Secretary to the Comptroller of the Currency, by William L. Trenholm, of South Carolina, who a month previously had been appointed Comptroller. I was sworn in and entered upon the discharge of my duties May 16, 1886. Thus began a period of service in the Bureau of the Currency, which continued uninterruptedly for more than thirty-six years, undisturbed by political or other changes in Federal, departmental or bureau administration.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance and Tragedy of Banking, Vol. 2: Problems and Incidents of Governmental Supervision of National Banks Lawrence O. Murray, the twelfth Comptroller of the Currency, was appointed April 28, 1908. He was born in Steuben County, New York, in 1864. He was educated at Addison College, Niagara University, and the Metropolis Law School of New York, and was admitted to the bar in New York City in 1893. He first entered the service of the Federal Government as private secretary to Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Curtis, under President Cleveland's second administration, and later was appointed chief of the organization division in the office of the Comptroller of the Currency. In September, 1898, he was appointed Deputy Comptroller of the Currency. He retained this place ten months and resigned on June 27, 1899, to accept the position of trust officer in the Trust Company of America, of New York City, a new organization. He remained with this company three years and then became secretary and trust officer of the Central Trust Company of Illinois at Chicago, organized by Charles G. Dawes, former Comptroller of the Currency, who was president of the company. He resigned this position to accept appointment as Assistant Secretary of the Department of Commerce and Labor in January, 1904, and continued in that position until appointed Comptroller of the Currency. His only banking experience was that of trust officer in two trust companies, the principal duties of which were to pass upon the legal form of papers. His appointment as Comptroller was purely a personal one on the part of President Roosevelt. Mr. Murray qualified as Comptroller April 28, 1908, but on account of the condition of his health he did not assume active charge of the Bureau until September 2 following. Mr. Murray was the most peculiar character who ever occupied the office of Comptroller of the Currency. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
