New York Banker Profits Up To Six Million In Bond Handling
The Senate banking committee heard allegations that Dillon, Read and Company profited about 6 million dollars from handling roughly 130 million dollars in South American bonds. Evidence showed interest payments were made from a special fund rather than direct remittance from Brazil, with bondholders kept in the dark about fund sources before market actions. The panel’s counsel noted those profits amid charges of price pegging and concealment of a looming default. In Albany, Alfred E. Smith received an honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of the State of New York, capping decades as a statesman and thinker, while news also tied to early discussions of his possible nomination as high commissioner for Jewish refugees.
