vast transcontlnental system, This plan
must now be abandoned temporarily at
least, but opinion is divided as 10 wheth-

powerful guidance. Ono member OF the
purchasing syndicate said positively this
afternoon that eve have no plans for q

and the purchase does not embrace con-
frol of any OF the properties whose stocks
we have acquired"
On the other hand another banker con-
ccrned said that DR.. Pearson's project

the holdings, he said, was to save an
awkward market situation. yet he was
