Chapter 6. Wall Street’s Central Bank

from Mises Media Hosted by Patrick Newman

By the new century the power elite was Morgan, Kuhn Loeb, Baker’s First National, and Stillman’s National City, yet New York’s share of central reserve city deposits was slipping as Chicago and St. Louis gained. Patrick Newman covers Jekyll Island, the National Citizens’ League organized as a front to manufacture grass-roots support, and the pivot once Congress refused the Aldrich plan: if the central bank had to look decentralized, then control its personnel instead.
