Stelzner and Beckert on the Contribution of Enslaved Workers to Output and Growth

 

There is a new working paper by Mark Stelzner and Sven Beckert The Contribution of Enslaved Workers to Output and Growth in the Antebellum United States that attempts to estimate the significance of enslaved labor to the American economy. The essence of the approach is to use slave prices to estimate slave production. The price of a slave should reflect the value of output that the enslaved person is expected to produce. They then use estimates of production in 1839 and 1859 to estimate the contribution to growth.

My initial reaction is that recognition that cotton was not the only good produced by enslaved people is long overdue, and their approach generally makes sense, though I need more time to consider the specifics. And I find the results plausible. 

That said, their estimate of the percentage of commodity output attributable to enslaved people seems somewhat low. They state that “For the United States as a whole, slaves created between 14.8 and 16.5 percent of total commodity output in 1839 and between 13.0 and 14.8 percent in 1859.” Enslaved people only accounted for 12% of the population, so why would I regard this estimate as low? While enslaved people accounted for about 12% of the population in 1859, they accounted for 21.7% of the labor force. Given that enslaved people were engaged primarily in commodity production, I would have expected their share of commodity output to be close to their share of the labor force. The difference may arise from the fact that much of the over-representation of enslaved people in the labor force comes from women and children being forced to work at higher rates than free people. Their estimates are actually very close to the share of the male labor force accounted for by enslaved men: enslaved men accounted for about 13.6% of the male labor force (labor force share are from Historical Statistics Millennial Edition Tables B11-10 and Ba 40-49). To the extent that the women and children were less involved in commodity production and their prices were lower than for adult males the estimation procedure would lead to estimates of output share that are less than the labor force share. The bottom line, however, is that their estimates of the commodity output share attributable to enslaved people is similar to estimates of the percentage of the labor force accounted for by enslaved people.

Although I find the results reasonable, I was surprised by the authors claims about their implications. They seem to suggest that it provides support for the earlier claims of Baptist and Beckert and refutes their critics. In conclusion, they state that “These estimates do not consider economic activity, like in insurance, banking, transportation and industrial sectors that were stimulated by the slave economy, and thus represent a lower bound estimate for the overall importance of slavery. However, they do show, as argued by Du Bois (1935), Callender (1902), Schmidt (1939), North (1961), Darity (1990), Johnson (2013), Beckert (2014), Baptist (2016), Beckert and Rockman (2016), and Stelzner (2020), that slavery was important historically for US economic development.” In other words, they frame their argument against a straw man who claims that slavery was unimportant instead of framing it against actual people who criticized claims by Baptist, Beckert and others that slave produced cotton was not just important but was the driving force behind economic growth, accounting for nearly half of all output. Ironically, they even criticize scholars who challenged claims about slave produced cotton as the driving force of economic growth for focusing too much attention on cotton. Although, I agree that the history of slavery in American economic development needs to move beyond cotton, if you are going to make misleading claims about the cotton economy you should expect people to challenge them with evidence about the cotton economy.

The claims about slave produced cotton being the driving force behind growth rely on the theory that there were large spillovers from cotton onto the rest of the economy. Many recent historians of slavery and the economy cited Douglass North’s theory that interregional trade linkages made cotton exports the driving force behind growth (this is also the argument of Callender and Schmidt). But research in the 1960s and 1970s had already shown that the available evidence did not support the argument. More recently arguments about linkages have shifted toward finance and services, but the evidence on these linkages remains largely anecdotal. That these connections were large has been asserted rather than established. To the best of my knowledge, quantitative estimates of their significance are still lacking. As they note in their conclusion, Stelzner and Beckert do not provide any evidence regarding them.

In sum, the paper provides a new approach to estimating the economic significance of slavery that begins with the labor of enslaved people rather than the production of specific goods. It finds that that the contribution of enslaved people to production was similar to their share of the labor force, which seems reasonable to me. It does not, however, provide any support for the theory that Baptist and Beckert built their original stories around?  In fact, to the extent that the share of commodity production is less than the share of the labor force one might regard the result as consistent with arguments about the negative economic effects of slavery.

More Than You Probably Want to Know About Trust Companies and the Panic of 1907

This post was prompted by a new paper that Fohlin and Lu have on the Panic of 1907 in the most recent AEA Papers and Proceedings, “How Contagious Was the Panic of 1907?  New Evidence from Trust Company Stocks.”

 

One of the central questions about the Panic of 1907 is “Why were New York City trust the target of runs rather than banks?” For a long time, the answer to this question was that people ran on trust companies because they were new and under-regulated “shadow banks.” Moen and Tallman added that trust companies were not members of the Clearinghouse Association and therefore did not have access to that associations ability to act as a lender of last resort. I argued that trust companies were not new, they had been around since the 1820s, and were far from unregulated. Moreover, the runs targeted only a handful of trust companies. Specifically, they targeted “uptown trust companies” that focused on personal deposits rather than the service to large business that had been the traditional focus of trust companies Hansen 2014 and Hansen 2018. But I also agreed with Moen and Tallman that the lack of membership in the Clearing House Association was a crucial problem.

 

Fohlin and Lu are also interested in learning from the variation among trust companies. They analyze new data that they collected on stock prices to try to gain a better understanding of how the Panic impacted different companies. They are particularly interested in the potential influence of connections between different financial institutions as reflected in interlocking directorates (the same individuals serving on the boards of multiple firms).

 

They initially raise a very old question about the Panic: Did the big financial firms promote the Panic to punish upstarts? Although, most people now regard J.P. Morgan as the hero of the Panic, many people at the time regarded him as the villain and believed that he had started the Panic. In 1908, Senator Robert La Follette claimed that “it only needs to be followed step by step to show that it [the Panic] was planned and executed.”  Recent research by Mary Tone Rodgers and James Payne does find evidence that Morgan may have benefited from the Panic.

 

Fohlin and Lu do not directly answer the question about whether Morgan was hero or villain, but they do set out to determine whether connection to established financial networks, like Morgan’s, benefited trust companies during the Panic as reflected in their stock prices. They find that it did. Only a handful of firms experienced large and lasting declines in stock prices. They conclude that “The vast majority of the trusts declined modestly and then rebounded to pre- crisis valuation within a year. These findings support Hansen’s (2014) hypothesis that most trusts were well regulated and properly functioning.” Obviously, since they conclude that I was correct their paper must be right.

 

I do believe that they arrived at the right conclusion but have some questions about exactly how they got there.  But first, just in case not everyone reading this is entirely familiar with trust companies and the Panic, I’ll provide a little background on each.

 

Trust Companies

           

A trust is a legal arrangement in which one person, the donor, transfers property to another person, the trustee, to be used for the benefit of a third person, the beneficiary. A trust company is a corporation that is authorized to act as a trustee. In February 1822, the State of New York granted a charter to the Farmers’ Fire Insurance and Loan Company, authorizing it to provide a number of services: life insurance, fire insurance, annuities, and lending on collateral. Two months later, on April 30, the legislature authorized the company to act as a trustee, creating the first trust company. Other early trust companies received charters similar to Farmers’.  These early trust companies were also in the insurance business. The establishment of a trust was viewed as an alternative means to provide for relatives after one died.  The opportunities provided by trusts eventually proved more profitable than insurance, particularly when these early trust and insurance companies faced increased competition from insurance companies organized on a mutual basis.  Consequently, the original trust companies eventually abandoned life insurance and focused on the trust business.

 

The development of the American economy gave rise to new opportunities for trust companies. The financing of railroads, for example, created a demand for trust companies to serve as trustees for mortgages, registrars of stocks and bonds, transfer agents, and fiscal agents.  Trust companies also acted directly as financial intermediaries by allowing people to create trusts in which they were both the donor and the beneficiary; the trust company invested the deposited funds and paid a fixed rate of interest. Early depositors at trust companies received trust certificates that stated the rate of interest, the dates upon which interest would be paid, and the redemption date.  By the mid 1870s, most of the liabilities of New York City trust companies were deposits payable on demand or short notice (ten days).  Because trust companies already provided a number of financial services to corporations and paid interest on deposits they provided a convenient place for corporations to deposit funds. Although available on demand, trust company deposits were generally regarded as savings accounts. Consequently, clearings by trust companies were only about seven percent as large as of those of banks.  In 1905, for instance, the Clearing House banks in New York had $977,651,300 in deposits and clearings of $93,822,060,201; trust companies, on the other hand, had $926,390,568 in deposits and clearings of only $6,869,162,000. 

 

To sum up, by the beginning of the 20th century, New York City trust companies had evolved from a type of insurance company into firms that carried on a banking business, taking in deposits and making loans, serving primarily large corporations and wealthy individuals.

 

The Panic of 1907

 

The first thing to know about the Panic of 1907 is that the economy was ripe for a panic in October 1907. Industrial production peaked in July 1907 and then fell 30 percent in the second half of the year; by October 1907, stock prices had fallen 25 percent from their November 1906 peak. The Panic probably exacerbated the downturn, but it was the result of the recession not the cause.

 

The Panic of 1907 is consistent with Calomiris and Gorton’s emphasis on the role of asymmetric information in financial crises during the National Banking Era (1863-1813). Given the decreases in industrial production and stock prices, it was reasonable to conclude that the value of assets at financial firms were also declining and the risk of insolvency was increasing. Depositors, however, did not know with certainty which financial firms were most at risk. Consequently, they were more likely to respond to new information that raised doubts about a firm.

 

The underlying cause of the Panic was the downturn in the economy, but the proximate cause of the Panic was an attempt to corner the market in United Copper.  When the corner failed the price of United Copper shares plummeted. The failed corner might not have been problematic had the Heinze brothers, who were behind the corner, not been involved in a number of financial institutions. In addition, they were frequently linked to Charles Morse and E.R. Thomas, who controlled several other financial institutions.  

 

When rumors spread that the Heinze brothers had financed their scheme with money from the banks that the Heinze-Morse-Thomas group controlled, the banks were threatened by large withdrawals. The banks appealed to the New York Clearing House Association for assistance.  The Association agreed to provide assistance on the condition that the men behind the attempted corner give up their positions of control. The Association could assist solvent but illiquid banks by issuing Clearing House certificates. Clearing House certificates were loans from the Clearing House Association, secured by assets from the borrowing bank. The bank could use the certificates to settle with other banks and conserve its currency. 

 

The actions of the Clearing House averted the failure of the banks, but suspicion spread to people rumored to be associated with the conspirators, particularly Charles Barney, president of the Knickerbocker Trust Company. Like the banks, the Knickerbocker appealed to the Clearing House Association for assistance, but the Clearing House only provided assistance to member banks. Barney appealed to J.P. Morgan, but Morgan also declined. When assistance did not materialize, the Knickerbocker paid out $8,000,000 that it had available and then closed its doors.

 

 

Charles Barney had also served on the board of the Trust Company of America, and when the New York Times reported that the Trust Company of America was now regarded as the weak point depositors ran on it. Consistent with the claim that the big financial firms fueled the Panic, J.P. Morgan’s partner George Perkins appears to have actually suggested to reporters that the Trust Company of America was in trouble.  Following the run on the Trust Company of America, the panic spread as depositors ran on the Lincoln Trust Company and the Fifth Avenue Trust Company.  Unlike the Knickerbocker and the Trust Company of America, there were no rumors connecting these firms to the scandal on Wall Street.  Alexander Dana Noyes noted that the run on the Lincoln was “caused apparently by the mere fact that it served the same class of depositors as the Knickerbocker and the America.”   What class of depositors was this? “The Knickerbocker,” Noyes explained, “had catered especially to the so-called “up-town clientage” of the shopping and residence district.”  J.P. Morgan’s son in law, Herbert Satterlee, also observed in regard to the Lincoln Trust Company that the “character of its patrons was very much like that of the Knickerbocker.”  That is to say, it was an uptown trust company. Out of the thirty eight trust companies in Manhattan, visible runs were only reported at these four uptown trust companies: the Knickerbocker Trust Company, the Trust Company of America, the Lincoln Trust Company, and the Fifth Avenue Trust Company.

 

The runs ended after the presidents of the old downtown trust companies met at J.P. Morgan’s library on Nov. 5, and announced the next day that

 

The Committee of Trust Companies of New York City has had the assets of the Trust Company of America and the Lincoln Trust Company examined by experts, who report that in their judgment on the present basis of values the assets of each company are sufficient to pay its depositors in full. It has been arranged that a majority of the stock of each company shall be placed under the control of the committee.

They vouched for the solvency of the firms, and each agreed to contribute to a fund to provide liquidity to the troubled trust companies if the runs continued. They were essentially carrying out he role that the Clearing House Association did for banks.

Fohlin and Lu and Financial Connections

 

Fohlin and Lu collected three observations per week on bid and ask prices for trust companies stocks. They divided the trust companies into three groups. “The first group is the “troubled” group, which contains three trusts: Knickerbocker, Lincoln, and Trust Company of America. These trusts experienced the most severe runs during the panic. The second group is the “connected” group, which contains seven trusts. These trusts, according to Pujo (1913), are connected to four major “money trusts,” including (i) JP Morgan, (ii) First National Bank of New York, (iii) National City Bank of New York, and (iv) National Bank of Commerce of New York. Finally, we classify the remaining 49 trusts as the “independent” group.” They then used difference in difference and generalized synthetic control to estimate the impact of the Panic on stock prices. If you are not an economist (or even if you are an economist) and you are saying “What the hell is difference in difference and generalized synthetic control? Don’t worry. Just take a look at this graph from their paper. The solid blue line is the troubled companies, the black dashed line is the connected companies, and the red dashed line is the independent companies.

 


 


 

I believe the graph is probably an accurate reflection of what happened during the Panic, but I have a couple of concerns about the description of the connected firms and the identification of which firms were connected.

 

Most people at the time referred to “The Money Trust,” not money trusts. There were two distinct groups, one centered around Rockefeller and the other around Morgan. National City Bank was associated with Rockefeller, and First National and National Bank of Commerce were Morgan banks. But there was overlap between the two groups: one of Morgan’s closest associates George Perkins was on the board of National City Bank, and Jacob Schiff served on the boards of both City and Commerce. Many of the directors from both groups served on the same trust company boards. This isn’t to say that there was no competition, but it was the cooperation that worried people.

 

Fohlin and Lu state that they classified 7 firms as connected based upon the Pujo Investigation while there are 9 trust companies contained in the tables presented in the Pujo report: Farmers’ Loan and Trust Co., New York Trust Co., United States Trust Co., Equitable Trust Co., Guaranty Trust Co. Astor Trust Co., Bankers Trust Co. Central Trust Co., and the U.S. Mortgage and Trust Co. I suspect that part of the discrepancy is because the Astor Trust Company did not open until 1907, so it could not be included in the analysis. I wish they had stated which companies were connected, unfortunately the limited space in Papers and Proceedings makes inclusion of such details difficult.

 

There are, however, reasons to believe that the Pujo list might not provide an accurate picture of connections at the time of the Panic. First, the methodology of the Pujo investigations list is not clear. Neither the New York Life Insurance and Trust Co. and the Lawyers’ Title Insurance and Trust Company were on the Pujo list even thought they each had multiple individuals from the Pujo list of directors on their boards. Second, the Pujo investigation was 5 years after the Panic. During those five years, eleven trust companies disappeared though merger. Among these mergers were some of the most well-connected firms prior to 1907: Morton, Fifth Avenue, and Mercantile.

 

I think Robert La Follette probably provided a more complete list of connections around the time of the Panic. The list is from March 1908. At the end of this post, I have an abbreviated version of the list and the complete list. The abbreviated version contains the names the directors of the National City Bank and the National Bank of Commerce and the trust companies that they were connected to. The full list includes some people who were not directors of these banks and the connections to other financial, industrial, and transportation corporations.  If one uses the LaFollette list there are 23 trust companies that had at least one director from the board of either City Bank or Bank of Commerce at the time of the Panic.

 

La Follette’s list suggests that connection was not simply a matter of being connected or not connected; there were degrees of connection. There are some trust companies like Windsor and Fulton that have one director from one of the banks. There are others like Farmers’ Loan and Trust, Morton, and Fifth Avenue that have multiple directors from the banks and at least one from each of the banks.

 

I think the degree of connection is important to the story, and the relationship between connection and the Panic is complicated. The Knickerbocker and the Trust Company America were uptown trust companies and, consistent with the story I tell, they experienced the most severe runs. They were connected in the sense that there were interlocks with the major financial institutions. The connections, however, were weak. Only two people from the major banks were directors of the Knickerbocker, Moses Taylor and Charles Barney, and Barney was the sole representative from one of the major banks on the board of the Trust Company of America. When Morgan did not have sufficient confidence in Barney to assist the Knickerbocker, the connections were for all practical purposes broken. By the way, although I don’t think she has published the argument yet, Mary Tone Rodgers, has told me that based upon here research in Morgan’s syndicate books that there were reasons for Morgan’s lack of support for Barney. In any case the connections were much more limited than many of the other trust companies in which there were multiple interlocks.      

 

 

In contrast, the Fifth Avenue Trust Company was an uptown trust company that was able to weather the Panic, and I think it supports both my argument and Fohlin and Lu. The Fifth Avenue was located uptown on Fifth Avenue, just a couple of blocks from the companies experiencing large runs. It did experience a large decrease in the number of deposits from Jan. 1907 to Jan. 1908. In addition, newspapers reported lines during the height of Panic, but they also reported that depositors were quickly paid when they demanded funds and that the president, Levi Morton, said they had more than enough resources to meet any demands. One of the officers of the company also noted that only small depositors were removing their money.  It was initially targeted as an uptown trust company, but it was not one of the companies that became a problem. The Fifth Ave. was one of the most connected companies in New York. It had directors from both of the major banks; over half a dozen directors of Bank of Commerce also sat on the board of the Fifth Avenue Trust Co. The Lincoln, in contrast, had no connections to either group.

 

So, I still think I am right about runs targeting uptown companies, but I think attention to the connections between firms can add to the story that I told.

 

I do still believe that the trust companies were not really unregulated shadow banks. They did, however, have one major weakness, which Moen and Tallman have emphasized. They were not members of the clearinghouse. For the well connected firms this may not have mattered, but they were only able to stop the runs on trust companies after the well connected trust companies were able to get together and announce that they were essentially going to serve the role of the Clearing House Association for the troubled trust companies, restoring the confidence that had been lost.

 

One last small thing. Fohlin and Lu state that “Some trusts were undercapitalized relative to deposits. Notably, the Knickerbocker held $62 million in deposits with $1 million in capital stock.” Trust companies reported to the Superintendent of Banking and frequently advertised both their “capital” and their “surplus” to describe the shareholders stake in the corporation. On Sep. 17,1907 the Knickerbocker had $1.2 million capital stock and a little more then $5 million surplus on about $60 million in deposits.

 

Despite the issues that I have noted, I think this is an interesting and important paper and that the “Money Trust” and the trust companies warrant more attention.  

 

P.S. This is a post with links to some earlier, but still recent, research on the Panic.
