C AUGUST 6, 1974. Mr. ALFRED BRITTAIN III, New York, N.Y. DEAR MR. CLAUSEN: Enclosed is a copy of "Nominees", a useful reference brochure published by Morgan Guaranty Trust. It indicates to the user the nature of individual nominee accounts (such as trust and investment division, custodial and corporate trust). A similar list and explanatory remarks (or brochure, if published) from your bank would be useful in our continuing efforts to improve the accuracy of corporate ownership reports filed with Federal regulatory agencies. Very truly yours, Enclosure. (Similar letter sent to 18 banks.) LEE METCALF. Hon. LEE METCALF, U.S. Senate, Russell Senate Office Building, BANKERS TRUST Co., New York, N.Y., October 10, 1974. DEAR SIR: In response to your request, we are pleased to enclose a list of the Nominee Partnerships presently used by Bankers Trust Company, which also indicates the Department of the Bank using the particular nominee. Very truly yours, Enclosure. RICHARD S. DENNY. OCTOBER 10, 1974. DEAR SENATOR METCALF: Thank you for your letter of August 6 enclosing a copy of Morgan Guaranty's recent brochure on "Nominees". It is certainly informative and obviously makes a contribution to our mutual desire of dispelling any mystery surrounding the mechanical functioning of the securities markets. As you know, we are in full agreement with this posture. Our approach will be a little different than Morgan's but hopefully just as effective. We are preparing an article for the fall edition of our employee monthly publication. This will fully describe the "Nominee System" and include a list of our own nominees. We will endeavor to obtain maximum public distribution by making reprints available. I will see that a copy of the magazine is forwarded to you as soon as it is off the press. Sincerely, WILLIAM I. SPENCER, President. UNITED STATES TRUST CO., OF NEW YORK, Hon. LEE METCALF, DEAR SENATOR METCALF: Mr. Charles W. Buek, our Chairman of the Board and President, has asked me to forward to you the enclosed list of our nominees, together with the use and nature of the individual nominee accounts. Thank you for sending us the copy of the Morgan brochure which clearly ets forth the reasons for the use of nominee registration. Very truly yours, Enclosure. LEONARD T. SCULLY, THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, Hon. LEE METCALF, U.S. Senate, Committee on Government Operations, DEAR SENATOR. METCALF: Mr. Rockefeller has asked me to reply to your recent request for a listing of nominees used by The Chase Manhattan Bank. While we have not published this information in brochure form, we are pleased to enclose a list of our nominees, which indicates the type of account relationship for which each is utilized. All the nominees listed above that appear without an asterisk are nominees of The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. The nominees marked with an asterisk are utilized by the following wholly owned subsidiaries of The Chase Manhattan Corporation: Carn-Kauf & Co.-Chase Manhattan Bank of the Mid-Hudson, N.A. (Saugerties). Firbankon & Co.-Chase Manhattan Bank of Northern New York, N.A. (Canton). Pease & Co.-Chase Manhattan Bank of Central New York, N.A. (Syracuse). Andrews & Co.-Utilized by The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A., London to register U.S. security holdings of its customers. Chase Nominees, Ltd.-Utilized by The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. (London) to register on behalf of its customers securities other than those of U.S. corporations. The letter appearing to the right of each nominee indicates the type of account that utilizes the nominee. C.-Custody accounts. T.-Trust accounts (employee benefit trusts, personal trusts and estates, investment management accounts). L.-Loan department holdings used as collateral for customers' borrowings. P&D.-Assets held in Chase's own portfolio or assets retained temporarily by the Bank in its capacity as dealer. CT.-Corporate trust accounts. FC.-Foreign charitable (Canadian securities purchased by charitable, educational, or non-profit accounts which have been granted exemption from Canadian taxes). The only category of account where the Bank might have investment or voting discretion would be in the Trust area (coded T). In many instances, however, the Trust customer retains investment and/or voting responsibility for his assets or elects to share such responsibility with the Bank. NOTE. The only Trust accounts utilizing Cudd & Co. are investment management accounts where the Bank may have investment discretion but never has the authority to vote. Hon. LEE METCALF, Manufacturers Hanover Trust Co., Chairman, Subcommittee on Government Operations, DEAR SENATOR METCALF: Our Chairman, Mr. Gabriel Hauge, asked me to respond to your letter to him in which you enclosed a copy of "Nominees", published by Morgan Guaranty Trust, and remarked that a similar disclosure by Manufacturers Hanover would be useful. We have in preparation a report on certain of our Personal Trust & Employee Benefit Trust activities. This will contain a list of nominees and a brief explanation of their use and purpose. A copy of the report will be sent to you as soon as it is available. Thank you for your suggestion. WILLIAM MCGORRY, Senior Vice President. MELLON BANK N.A., Pittsburgh, Pa., August 13, 1974. Hon.
