CONTROL OF SUBSIDIARIES

NEW YORK, July 1e.-Plans are be-
Ing considered by the American To-
bacco Company interests, according to
a report which was credited In flnan-
cIal quarters to-day. to readjust the
corporate relations between some OF the

hope of meeting the objections ad-
vanced in the governments complaint
to the present system of stock owner

The particular part OF tho govern

believed to be trying to circumvent Is
that covering the question OF control OF
many of the constituent companies by
stock ownership on the part Of tha
American. or Its principal subsidiaries.
1t has been familiar practice OF

reason the open ownership by any one
