Alexander Hamilton (His idea of a National Bank was based of the fact that the constitution didn't explicitly prohibit it and therefore, it was constitutional.
The federal government has only the power to do exactly as the Constitution says. In George Washington's Presidency Alexander Hamilton who believed in loose construction believed that because the Constitution did not say that creating a national bank was illegal, then it could be done. Thomas Jefferson a believer of a strict interpretation believed that if it was not said in the Constitution that the Federal Government could make a National Bank then it is not allowed. The idea of strict and loose interpretation is fought about even to this day.

a loose interpretation of the Constitution. Hamilton advocated a loose interpretation of the Constitution and by doing so strengthened the U.S. economy as the first Secretary of the Treasury. He advocated a strong federal government, a national bank, a reduction in the public debt, and the building of a navy.
He didn't because he believed in strict construction of he constitution, which led him to believe that anything that is not written clearly in the constitution should not be done. Thus he opposed the creation of the bank because the constitution did not specifically grant power to Congress to create one. Alexander Hamilton favor the bank, because he believed in lose construction of the Constitution, and according to the "Elastic clause", the congress can do whatever that is for the good of the people. Thus Hamilton was for the creation of the national bank.
Alexander Hamilton had a National Bank accepted into the federal government by the Necessary and Proper clause. There, it states implied powers, which are basically what the name is. There are certain things in the Constitution that imply that topics such as the National Bank (Section 8 of the Constitution) would be constitutional if necessary for carrying out the Government at the time.
