Hyde Deals Demand Records Study Airs Old Syndicate Ties
New York Sept 22 counsel for the Armstrong insurance committee challenged claims that James H Hyde was not involved in syndicate dealings with the Equitable Life. Testimony showed Hyde and longtime directors Fitzgerald and Squire, with associates, engaged in underwriting with no clear profit records on the society books. The hearing reviewed Atlantic Coast Line and Union Pacific dealings, with funds advanced and later returned, and a 1905 assignment showing Hyde’s stake in a syndicate. Cleveland’s letter warned mutualization alone does not guarantee good administration and urged policyholders to accept responsibilities.
