The president of the trust stirred
for the first time since Boyd had be-
gun his recital. The grim lines about
his mouth set themselves deeper, and,
staring with cold gray eyes at the
/ speaker, he said:
Well, sir, what you have told me
confirms my judgment that Willis
Marsh is the right man in the right
place.

You don't mean to say that you APP
prove of what he has done?''
Yes, of what l know he has done.
Mr.. Marsh is pursuing definite poll
cy laid down by his board Of directors.
You have shown me that he has done
/ his work WELL You knew before you
left the east that we intended to crush

not among the other stations to the

hardened suddenly; his sound, white
teeth snapped together. 'You are get
