Pittsburg Banker Says Controller
„ Lacks Experience.
[BT TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.]
Pittsburg, May James H. Willock, pres
ident of the Second National Bank of Fltts
burg, ex-president of the Pennsylvania Bank
ers' Association, and for. years a member of the
executive council of the American Bankers'
Association, and one of keenest banker*
and financial leaders in Pittsburg. to-day re
plied to a statement of Controller Ridgeley's.
Speaking of the statement made by the con
troller that "No man should be allowed to hold
a managerial place in a national bank who en
gages in outside enterprises for profit to him
self rather than to the bank," he said to-day:
Controller Riugreley has a wrong Impression
of banking in large cities. The trouble is that
he lacks the experience. I venture to say that
ninety-eight per cent of the bankers in Pitts
burg know more of the Intricacies and neces-
Pities of banking in a metropolis than does Mr.
Ridgeley. however good a banker he may be.
He was taken from a small town into his pres
ent position, and v.hen he says that bank pres
idents or bank managers should not be engaged
in other business affairs he Is simply in gross
error. I say that, after a banking experience
of thirty-three years, which I think has been
fairly successful.
WIRELESS HIS NEMESIS.

age, and was a passenger on the American Line
steamer St. Louis, which arrived yesterday The
wireless dispatch was printed in I daily bulle
tin published on the vessel. Mr. ■ vilnnd read
It on the fourth day out.
All thoughts of rest and freedom from worry
were brushed away. Mr. Haviland began a vig
orous wireless campaign, sending out a score
of messages asking for further information and
directing that active and decisive steps ba taken
to prevent any harm coming to his father.
For two days he was ki-pt in suspense, but
later by wireless he received a message from
the firm's New-York agents announcing that the
danger was over.
