LAWYERS IN WORD WAR
IN TOBACCO HEARING
Delaney Nicoll Speaks For Re
organization Plan and Wicker
sham Defends Independents.

NEW YORK. Oct. 31.--Speaking for
the American Tobacco Co, Delaney
Nicou, in the United States circuit
court, today defended the proposed
disintegration plans of the tobacco
trust and bitterly attacked the indie
pendent tobacco companies for oppos-
ing the proposed reorganization
plans.
Attorney-G neral Wichersham.
Joseph H. Choate, Lewis Cass Led
yard Adrian II. Larkin, William b.
Hornblower and Louis ID. Brandeis
were among the attorneys gathered
in the courtroom for today's hearing.
In opening, Nicoll declared the
American Tobacco Co. officials had
been harrassed for four months by
Attorney General Wichersham and his
assistants with Radical changes TO
the proposed reorganization, and thai
the Wickersham ideas had been
adopted.
! And vet We come into court with
this reorganization plan perfected,
declared Nicoll, and ind scores oil
our competitors who are seeking TO
destroy their competitor-the -Ameri-
can Tobacco Co.-that they may drag
the chestnuts out OF the fire for them
selves"
Attorney General Wickersham was
the next speaker, Wickersham de-
clared he had considerable sympathy
for the independents and expressed
surprise. that the attorneys for the
tobacco trust should express indigna'
ton over their appearance in the case.
Wickersham recited that the SUI
IRENE court had held that the organ
ization OF the American Tobacco 20.
and it's practices were in restraint OF
trade and pointed out that the SUI
pIeme court had sent the WORKING
out of a reorganization plan back 20
the circuit court, because or the non
uniformity of the trusts action In It's
Laste.
The attorney general declared he
had done all he could to help work
out a satisfactory disintegration plan
az he realized the dire consequences
nf a receivership or the issuance OF
an Injunction by the circuit court.
lie said he had all along insisted
that the units in the new plan De
made as small as possible.
Wickersham asserted that mutual
ownership of securities under the to-
bacco plan was practically unavoid.
able and that there were several
procedents for such ownership, as In
the dissolution of the Northern Sc
curities Co. He declared, however,
that as an abstract proposition, he did
not favor such ownerships.
In the early portion OF his speech,
Wlckersham neither opposed nor
sanctioned the reorganization plans,
proposed by the company. He rare
w spoke in defense OF the company
plans nor did he at the beginning at
tack them
Wickersham called TO the attention
of the court the fact that under the
proposed reorganization plans. con-
troll OF the American Tobacco Co. and
its subsidiary companies would be
transferred from the common to the

Of the proposed franchise the less

"Two years ago, didn't believe IN
municipal ownership. Since then i

subject could get hold of and have
been converted believe now that
the city ought TO operate every public
utility and that in no other way will

gives the council the right TO regu-

now, but what good does II do us!
The company does just about as II
pleases, and IL We give another fran

ownership and municipal ownership
Is that one is operated for the pur-
pose of making money and the otner

vice at actual cost Just as long as
the street cars in Detroit are oper'
ated by o private corporation, We
will continue to have trouble over the
service. The people have indicated
that they want municipal ownership
and we ought to do all I'm our power
to secure IL for them at the earliest
possible moment. -
