PRESIDENT TAfT'S VIEWS
OF BANK LO0TERS
Walsh and Morse Arraigned In
Scathing Terms in His Re-
Refusal Of Clemency

President Taft has denied the appli-
cation for pardon for Charles w.
Morse of New York and John X. Walsh
Of Chicago, the two most prominent
bankers ever convicted and sentenced
to Federal prisons under the National
banking laws.
Not only did the President refuse to
/ pardon them. but he also declined to
exercise any other executive clemency
in their cases or to shorten their sen
fences.
In denying the pardons, the President
took the stand that the National bank.
ing laws and all other laws must be
upheld when they affect the rich man
even more than when they affect the
poor.
The record in the Walsh case, the
| President said, SHOWS moral turpitude
Of that insidious and dangerous kind
to punish which the National banking
laws were specially enacted"
Morse Called the Worse
In considering the case of Morse. the
President said:
From a consideration OF the fact
in each case, | have no doubt that
Morse should have received q heavier
sentence than Walsh. Indeed, the
methods taken by Morse tend to show
that, more keenly than Walsh, did he
realize the evil that he was doing"
Walsh Case Reviewed
In denying the Walsh application the
President said in part:
"His pardon is asked because all the
depositors OF his banks were paid
through the sacrifice Of his private
fortune and because, in doing what he
did, be was attempting to upbuild in
dustries of substantial benefit to the
country.
"a bank officer who uses such funds
to promote enterprises in which he ha:
a private interest and, without the
knowledge and consent of the share.
holders for whom he is a trustee, in.
wolves the whole capital of the bank il
unauthorized speculation, from which
he is to derive profit if successful, il
guilty of a fraudulent breach of trust, is
guilty of mortal turpitude and must h
punished.
Restitution No Excuse
mo excuse Of building useful indus.
tries aud no subsequent attempt tC
make good the losses which his act:
have brought upon innocent person,
who trusted him can gloss over the fac
that such a man is taking other people.
money for his own use.
"Many influential persons have peti
toned for his pardon. They do moi
fully appreciate, it seems to me, the
high Importance to society that such
criminal breaches of trust as this bt
severely punished"
Banks Used For Speculation
In the Morse case Taft said: GAL
though his conviction technically wa
on false entries, there is no doubt as tc
what the evidence showed generally
to-wit: That Morse was engaged il
large private transactions and the
maintenance of price of certain stoch
in the market was of importance &c
him. and he procured control OF thil
particular bank and other banks for the
purpose Of doing the specific thing
mentioned.
1.-THE evidence does not sustain the
assertion that all the losses to the banl
have been made good by him. Blu,
even if his estate had met the obliga
tions growing out of his ~fraudulen,
transactions, it could not change the
necessity for his lawful punishment fol
