Joseph Bucklin Bishop has met with General Hubbard and Hubbard would like the International Bank to be the government’s fiscal agency in Panama. Hubbard had a fiscal agent visit Panama and he found no financial institution of any importance. Hubbard believes his bank could be very useful to American interests. Bishop believes that the proposal is “reasonable and proper.”
