The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-05-13

The controller merely ordered
Leyburn and Taylor TO exchange
places. In doing so, he killed two
birds with one stone.
Leyburn has been the object of
criticism on the part of business
men and bankers in northern In
diana, Wisconsin and Iowa, who
charged he was autocratic in his re-
fusal to cooperate in the reopen
ing Of closed banks.
Taylor Also Criticised
To the same extent, Taylor for
the last two months has been criti-
cised in Ohio and western Penn
sylvania for the same reason.
Senator Van Mugs called on Treas
ury Secretary WOodin last Wednes-
day. Armed with a sheaf of let
ters from northern Indiana bankers
and business men, who declared
that it would be impossible to re-
store banking business in that sec
ton to normally so long as Leyburn
remained in control.
Backed by Senators La Toilette
and Duffy Of Wisconsin, COuzens
and Vandenburg Of Michigan and
Murphy of Iowa, Senator Van Nuys
demanded that Leyburn be taken
out of the Chicago district. Sec
rotary Woodin promised that Ley
burn would be removed in forty
eight hours as soon as the new
controller, j. F.. T. OConnor,
had taken the oath of Office. Fri
day night Woodin and OConnor
made good on that promise.
Removal Is Demanded
In the meantime, Taylor's re-
moyal from Cleveland district had
been demanded by Senators Bulk
ley and Fess of Ohio, Democratic
National Committeeman Guffy Of
Pennsylvania and Congressman
Kelly of Pittsburgh and Bolton of
Cleveland.
Their charges against Taylor
were the same as those made by
Van Mugs against Leyburn-that
he arbitrarily had blocked reopen
ing of banks, even going to the eX-
tent of thwarting the efforts OF the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton and the comptrollers Office
here.
They said that Taylor had been
particularly harsh on small banks,
and accused him Of being too SYM
pathetic with the Mellon interests
in Pittsburgh.
Thus, by ordering Leyburn out OF
the Chicago district and Taylor out
of Cleveland district, Secretary
Woodin and Comptroller OConnor
have, temporarily at least, satisfied
the political, banking and business
interests of both sections.
Will Give Him a Chance
Informed of Taylor's background,
Senator Van Mugs said: L don't
think Mr.. Taylor can be as unsatis-
factory as Mr.. Leyburn. Mr.. Taylor
deserves a fair chance to make
good.
However, unless he goes to work
and provides the cooperation
necessary to reopen the banks and
release the frozen deposits in north
ern Indiana, you can say that l
shall not hesitate to demand that
he also be removed.
Il am determined that the re-
serve bank Office in Chicago shall be
forced to function properly. Sena-
tors from other states i'll the Chi
cago district have pledged their
support.
