The New Munsey Trust Company
To the People OF Washington:

want to say word to you personally
about this new Trust Company, the stock of
(which we are now offering for sale. One
Washington newspaper in commenting on
this new undertaking, says Washington
already has too many banking concerns.
Whether this is or is not true, it is a
fact that the stock of Washington banks and
trust companies has usually sold, and is now
selling, at very satisfactory premium. The
stock of the seasoned and best managed
banking houses is bringing very high price.
There is no business that isn't overdone
no business in which the competition is not
too great for the weak concern or the con-
Germ of weak and unsound management
This is as true of newspaper publishing as
of banking or manufacturing or merchan-
dising or railroading, or anything else.
1t is all question of the survival of the
ittest, and the ittest is the concern of suff-
cient capital, whose management has brains
and energy and honesty and vision and
courage-a management that has the genius
of doing things and winning victories
There is good deal more in manage
ment than there is in "easy-thing' oppor-
tunities. If there were crying need for
another trust company in Washington, old
city that it is, it would be pitiable reflection
on the bankers Of this city. That there isn't
a crying need for another trust company here
shows that they have been up to their jobs,
that they haven't been asleep on their jobs.
In starting The Munsey Trust Company
here | would rather the banking situation
were what it is than if it were of the easy
opportunity variety-a get-ricf-quick oppor-
tunity.
The Munsey Trust Company will be
inauqurateo on sound lines and will stand for
sound principles in banking and in all trust
matters. 1t will indulge in no financial
stunts" with the view to big profits and fat
dividends
Nevertheless, The Munsey Trust Com
pany will be an aggressive and wide-awake
institution and will give good account OF
itself in the matter of its earnings while
growing into financial institution. 1t is as a
financial institution, here in the National
Capital, that this trust company chiefly inter-
ests me- This feeling is particularly accent
uated by the fact that the new company bears
nv name and that am to be its president.
NV hope is that in establishing The Num-
sey Trust Company here We are founding
banking house that will live, that will live
throughout this generation and throughout
many generations and that will grow with the
growth of the National Capital and become
national in its scope and usefulness
All this is possible, and is very much
worth while Mere money making, as COM
pared with institution building, the building
of century structures, is a poor kind of thing,
tame, STALE flat.
am telling you about my plans for The
Munsev Trust Company because ! want you

in The Munsey Trust Company, controlling
interest, and this is guarantee of my falth
in it and of that kind of individual interest
in it that is akin to individual ownership. 1t
is in individual ownership where a concern
is dominated by strong, vital personal inter
est-the interest of ownership that the
safest results are obtained.
In our great corporations, where the ele-
ment of ownership is necessarily small in the
managem ent, we feel the lack Of this donl-
inant ownership control. And this is one of
the great weaknesses of our big corporations.
Wherever we find a banking house or
business under the management of its chief
owner we are pretty sure to see a safe, sound
institution, one in which economy energy,
thoughtfulness, and deep individual interest
are conspicuous in its management.
NY hope is that very large number OF
