He joined the (New York) City Bank Farmers Trust Co. as an economist, shifted to National City as a bond expert, and in 1942 transferred to the New York Trust Co., where he has been since, except for a World War II hitch as a Navy lieutenant. Hayes lives in New Canaan, Conn, with his wife and two children...
