For more than eight years the National . City Bapk of , New York has had. a. paid agent quartered in the Treasury De partment, who has obtained confiden tial nvs relative to other national banks. This agent, Miss Lotta Tay lor, has been put out bag and baggage by Secretary McAdoo., The discovery resulted from :,sug ': gestions made -to 'Secretary McAdco - few weeks ago that certain national banks had a "pipe line" to the Treasury", Mr. McAdoo made an investigation and the "busting" of the "pipe line" followed. ,' In the Treasury statement issued on ; the matter Mr. McAdoo said: , "As, a .result of an investigation,' it . developes that the National City Bank of New York, acting through Mr. Ailes, Vice-President of the Riggs National Bank of Washington, has employed a ' clerk outside of the Department who . has been given a desk in the office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and' - who has, for the past eight or ten years made regular reports to the National-S City Bank on the condition of each national bank in the country promptly following every call of the Comptroller of the Currency." ; 14 , Discussing the matter further the - Secretary said: x 'This; of course, is irregular and im-' . proper, and immediately upon its dis- ' covery, it was stopped. It is only fair " . to say that the banks claim that the . ' ' infsrmation so obtained is only such as in due course is made public by th individual banks or the department But the-method employed, of installing a private employee with a desk in the,- Treasury, Department, gives the bank ., so favored an undue advantage in the -' way of advance information over all other banks in the country. . ,a "At the same time it tends to es- " ; tablish intimate relationships with the ' employees of the Government and the ' acquirement of information of a con- , fidentfal nature that -ought not to be given to private individuals or corpora- . tions, and which, if given at all should ' be published to the entire country.'
