### Draper's Accounts
[[Wickliffe Draper]] had been a client of Guaranty Trust since the 1930s. In 1940 the [[Pioneer Fund]] offered to establish annuities for the education of any child born that year to an officer of the [[United States Army Air Corps]] who had already fathered at least three children; according to the records of the fund's director [[John Marshall Harlan II]], Draper arranged for an annuity to be established for each of the twelve children at Guaranty Trust.[^8]

### Mississippi, 1963 and 1964
After President [[John F. Kennedy]]'s civil rights address of June 1963 the lawyer [[John C. Satterfield]] of [[Yazoo City]], a past president of the [[American Bar Association]], organized the [[Coordinating Committee for Fundamental American Freedoms]] in [[Washington, D.C.]]; the [[Mississippi]] State [[Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission|Sovereignty Commission]], according to the state archives, "participated in the national campaign to prevent the passage of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, establishing and providing funds for" it.[^9] On July 22, 1963 Satterfield received the first private contribution, a 10,000 dollar Morgan Guaranty cashier's check drawn on Draper's accounts, which was deposited in a special account in the state treasury and logged in the commission's records as "Morgan Guaranty Trust Co." Contributions from Mississippi residents never exceeded 30,000 dollars. A surviving partner of Satterfield's firm said Satterfield referred obliquely to the source of the large money as "the Wall Street gang."[^8]

On September 12, 1963 the bank's vice president [[Arthur W. Rossiter Jr.]] telegraphed Governor [[Ross Barnett]] that a client was "setting aside as an anonymous gift" stock valued at 100,000 dollars on the condition that "the fact and amount of the gift to be kept confidential." Barnett agreed the same day. After the shares were sold the gift totaled 98,612 dollars and was entered in the commission's records as "Donation from Morgan Guaranty Trust Company." Four months later Rossiter sent a second telegram announcing an additional 105,000 dollars. The money came from Draper's shares of [[R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company|Reynolds Tobacco]], [[General Motors]], [[Standard Oil|Standard Oil of New Jersey]] and [[Addressograph-Multigraph]]; the bank sold the stock at Draper's direction, collected commissions on the sales and held the proceeds in what it called a temporary Sovereignty Commission account at Morgan Guaranty. In one letter Rossiter wrote: "This represents an anonymous gift to your Commission and the donor has specifically requested that the fact and the amount of the gift be kept strictly confidential."[^8]

Nearly 215,000 dollars of the campaign's budget of about 300,000 dollars came through the bank. The committee bought advertisements in 500 daily and weekly newspapers and by April 1964 had distributed 1.4 million pamphlets and mailings. An internal memorandum by Satterfield said Americans had to be shown that the conditions of Black people in the United States resulted from "heredity . . . not discrimination," and named "the intelligence, criminality and immorality of the Negro."[^8] On June 2, 1964 a further 50,000 dollars from Draper arrived through the bank for a proposed permanent national organization. After the murders of [[James Chaney]], [[Andrew Goodman]] and [[Michael Schwerner]] that summer the plan was dropped and the 50,000 dollars was returned to Draper's lawyer [[Harry Weyher]], who deposited it in his firm's escrow account.[^8]

### The Estate and the Pioneer Fund
When Draper died in 1972 the bank continued to manage his holdings while the will was sorted out, and five years later the assets were distributed: about 1 million dollars to family members, 3.3 million dollars to the Pioneer Fund and 1.7 million dollars to the [[Puritan Foundation]], which listed Satterfield's law firm as its address. In 1978 the Puritan Foundation was merged into the [[Council School Foundation]], which supported private schools for white students. In the late 1960s and 1970s Draper had sent dozens of checks to private academies opened for white families after public school integration. His will instructed the fund to use the bank for financial advice, and it did so for two decades. [[Douglas A. Blackmon]] reported in 1999, citing people familiar with the situation, that the bank closed the Pioneer Fund's asset management account after the controversy over *[[The Bell Curve]]* in 1994; the bank would not give details of why.[^8]

The bank said that "racism is deplorable," that it did not "support institutions that further racist causes," and that it had given more than 3.3 million dollars of its own money to civil rights groups since the late 1960s. Its spokesman [[Joe Evangelisti]] said: "A thousand times a day, somebody sends money to an organization that 30 years later looks really terrible. We can't tell our customers how to spend their money." The managing director [[Hildy J. Simmons]] said: "As long as the receiving party is legal, we have no discretion," and, of Draper: "You can spend your money the way you want to." The files of the commission, sealed by the 1977 abolition act, were opened by a federal court order, most of them becoming available in the state archives' search room on March 17, 1998, and the [[The Wall Street Journal|Wall Street Journal]] reported the transfers on June 11, 1999.[^8][^9]
