Morgan on character as basis of credit and business ethics
A long excerpt presents Mr. Morgan testifying before the Pujo committee about commercial credit, stressing character over money or property. It argues banks rely first on a borrower’s character, with bonds or assets a secondary factor, and notes a broader critique of misused credit in business. A Georgia juvenile case outlays reform vs punishment, while editorials advocate tariff clarity and scientific progress. The piece mixes quotes and opinion on finance, youth justice, and public policy from 1913 sources.
