Bartnett also had his eye one the
millions of John O. Rockefeller and
strongly advised Brown to try and have
1 the btanaara uu interests in ean Fran
cisco identified with the new corpora
tion. Brown's reference to the wage-earn
er was made in a letter he sent to
Bartnett on September- 5. He then
wrote:
"I note what you state with refer
ence to the money conditions in New
York and we can only wait for the ar
rival of the- propitious hour to obtain
the required assistance for the bond
and mortgage company. We are con
stantly advertising the features of the
business and have interested several
