terest Of the Equitable and Washington

stand when the executive investigation

5O2 shares. He said he gave his personal
check I'm payment. He had not placed the
stock as collateral to secure "A loan TO pay
part of the purchase price, he said. and
had borrowed no money from amy insur-
ance company to make the payment.
In reply to a question as to what led
him to make the purchase. Mr.. Ryan SAID
that agitation over the Equitable scandal
had led him to believe that a receiver
would be asked for the company. He did
not wish the vast treasury of the Equit.
able to fall into the hands of other fnan.
ciers. who might sell it to their own ad-
vantage. He did not believe other hnan.
ciers had any right to use these funds
and so had arranged to have the stool
placed in the hands Of trustees.
Mr.. Ryan said it was no part of the con
sideration for the purchase of the Hyd,
stock that a part or all Of it was to b.
bought back. nor was there any agree
ment of amy kind for turning 1t baei
either to Mr.. Hyde or 10 any other per
sons lie also denied that he was carryipl
