Debate Over Bank of Discount Powers Sparks Constitutional Clash
The speaker rejects a bank of discount as necessary to execute federal revenue duties. He recalls the 1830s Bank of the United States, arguing local discounts foster corruption, while exchange dealings boosted currency. Directors would hold broad powers to establish offices in states with implied assent, risking entrenchment.
