Mr. Morgan heard his own name and
that of his firm referred to many
times as tables were prt-ttcnted show
ing "the affiliations of that concern
with many bunks, trust companies,
truiihportution and industrial corxra
tions. He amx-ared unmoved through
out it all.
Mr. Mohan's testimony lastisl barely
20 minutes and was largely preliminary.
1 he chief point mailv was that he
favored allowing interstate corpora
tions to detiosit their funds in the
hands of private bunkers without re
striding them to institutions under
government supervision. He said this
was a matter to be left to the discre
lion of the board of directors of the
cortiorations in question.
Mr. Morgan confirmed data prepared
by members of the Morgan house
showing ithat CtJ accounts with the
Moriran firm in January last had de-
l)sils of tCS.l 13,000 and that 78 ac
counts on November 1 hud deposits of
$Hl,tiK,000. The total capital, sur

this.

Philip J. Scudder, which were placed

showed that the charU dealt with the
alliliation of ISO director in 18 banks

'these 1K0 men held directorships in
