Frank Leslies Weekly 1916, Oct 19 - Men who are making America - Who wrote the Aldrich currency report. Whe basis of our new banking system. Here told for the first time--Paul M. Warburg's career" by B.C. Forbes

" Picture a party of the nation's greatest bankers stealing out of New York on a private railroad car under cover of darkness, stealthily hieing hundreds of miles South, embarking on a mysterious launch, sneaking on to an island deserted by all but a few servants, living there a full week under such rigid secrecy that the names of not one of them was once mentioned lest the servants learn the identity and disclose to the world this strangest, most secret expedition in the history of American finance.
I am not romancing. I am giving to the world, for the first time, the real story of how the famous Aldrich currency report, the foundation of our new currency system, was written"
-B.C. Forbes
