Mitchell National City banker linked to family stock deals
New York May 18 Defense counsel produced evidence showing repeated financial dealings between Charles E B Mitchell former chairman of the National City bank and his wife Edward Barrett over many years. Letters recorded stock sales in 1928 and 1929 to Mrs Mitchell with claims of profits and tax avoidance. Prosecutors present documents to suggest the 1929 sale was a pretense. Mitchell, facing tax evasion charges of 850000, argues the sale was genuine and that Mrs Mitchell profited from it. Breuer claims loans against Mitchell exceed assets, leaving him almost broke.
