From The New York Mail
MIR. Williams cut out politics and graft as
State Superintendent OF Banking, AVID ter
minated the prevailing scandal and expense
in winding up the affairs Of failed banks.
His experience win stand him i'm good stead.
ALMOST IDEAL"
From The Brooklyn Eagle CDeml
The appointment l. almost ideal Indeed
under ali circumstances. Il is doubtful II a
man better fitted for the work before him
could have been found Not only Is Mr..
Williams fnancter OF learning-a philO-
sot,hft. financier-but h. Is one who ia mac
teal and constructive.
EXECUTIVE ABILITY.
From The Brooklyn Citizen (Deml
In the more important Office TO which he
has Just been appointed. Mr.. WilliamS's
splendid executive abilities and trained
mind will nave a larger field OF endeavOr.
IL ~ reasonable expectation thcJ his
years tenure Of this post Will be as fruitful
OF public good as hts stay in the Banking
Department.
THE ISSUE.
From The New York Globe.
The Republican state bosses. who don't
like Governor Hughes and who don't enjoy
the loss OF the PATRONAGE OF the Controllers
displace him tClark WilliamsL II would
draw the issue i'm way that would be too
helpful to Governor Hughes.
NEW STANDARDS
From The New York Press.
Mr.. Williams became Superintendent OF
Banks at a financial sacrifice, he makes the
transfer 10 the ContrOllership at a lower
salary than that II the post he quits. Not
every Governor will be able TO engage the
services OF such men aS Governor Hughes
seems able to obtain. not every man, per-
haps. can make the sacrifice which Mr.
Williams assumes in taking ONCE from a
sense of duty. But the standards which
are beiu< set in Albary now Will have their
influence Tor long time.
