Eugene Jacques Marie Etienne, retired banker, which the defense ministry said was suicide, injected a strange new angle into the situation, Etienne’s death was not connected directly with the present judicial in- quiry mto the national bank, and the Teasons for his act were not known. His only apparent link to the present case was that he was once director ofthe Goldzieher and Penso bank which seled five years ago after he The or jected resignation apparent- ly was connected with Van Zeeland’s desire to combat charges by Belgian Fascists that he received, while pre- mier, unwarranted payments from the National Bank of Belgium, of which he formerly was an officer.
