"question: do you know who Bert Lance was / is ?"

Chairman and chief stockholder of the National Bank og Georgia, who was Carter's pick for Sec. Treas.

He was as wild and wooley a banker as they come, and a lot of the subsequent rules on bankers behavior came about becauseof him.

He had to resign/withdraw and went on to other matters, not all of them clear.
