Referring to the impression that Vigi-

marks: Coloring is given to these sur

unreasonable to conclude from these n,
run on the rocks. Mr.. Gould has simply
been made the victim OF an unfortunate
combination of circumstances.
IT IL useless to attempt to disguise
the fact that the manner In which VIC

has created, rightly or wrongly, an un.
favorable impression. There was great
