Nearly ten years ago the ma
tional government decided
build a new customs house
New York City Althoug,
was evident that this new cns-
toms house in course of con
struction would not be ready Tor
occupancy for several years, To-
national government, through
Lyman J. Gage, then secrcta
of the treasury, decided, some
eight years since, to take ad-
vantage OF certain offer that
had been made by the Nation |
City bank of New York City.
This is what happened: TIL
National City Bank agreed to
buy the old customs house prop
erty, then owned and occupied by
the government, for 1926, ,0U0.
This offer was based on a conser.
valve estimate of the actual val
ue of the property. The banker.
drew their checks for S3,215, ,00U
which it was agreed they could
deposite in their own bank
TO the credit of the United
States. II was further
agreed that the balance of the
purchase price-s50, ,000-should
be paid when the government
moved into it's new custom house.
Then the bank charged the gov
ernment S130,600 rent a year.
Since the bank had not paid the
last $50. 900, title Of the property
remained with the government
and thus the state of New York
was cheated out of some S70,0 900
q year in taxes, which could have
been collected il the title had pas
SEQ. That is why the bank, with
! the governments consent, drew
its original check $4,000 shy.
Thus the government, as owner
of the property, pays rent to the
bank, and as the renter Of the
property it allowed the bank to
dodge its texas. The National
City bank, moreover, had the use
Of the governments S3,2!5,0O0,
which, at four per cent. irterss
nstted the bank S12S, 900 yearly
Four per cent. is a conservatiy.
estimate OF the amount of interes,
drawn by this money. Even th,
city Of New York has to pay fivs
per cent. on its bonds.
II is eight years since this re-
markable deal between the Stan
dard Oil bank and the govern
ment was pulled off. In eighl
years the bank has collected from
the government 81, ,044, 1903 In
rent. They have made S1,02S, =
800 In interest at four per cent on
the IS, ,215, 900 deposited to theiI
use. They have saved $500, ,0o0 by
the -paymsntof taxes.In other
words they made S2,833, 800 in
eight years on the old custom
house property, which is equiva-
lent to having purchased this
property, worth So, ,000,0 600 to-
day, for 1881, 400. Thus in one
deal covering q period of eigh,
years the bank has made profl
of s5,S6S, 900 without having ori.
ginally spent q cent.
