the Governor went over TO the auto

in union, the Governor declared that
the federal government should take
the first steD toward coal conservation

ment in Ohio. The other recommen-
dations made by the Governor have
been discussed from time to time and
IL was generally understood they

Mr.. Morgan's appearance before the
committee was surprise to those who
we're attending the hearing. and the
banker indicated that the invitation
10 give his Views was something OF
surprise TO him. as he had not
been requested 10 appear until shortly
before the hour specified. There was
a stir in the committee room when
the heavy set figure OF the banker ap-
peared amid the little group of men
who had assembled for the afternoon
session

Mr.. Morgan surprised his hearers
by saying he did not consider IL i'm
