ACTIONS AGAINST DIRECTORS

Board Called crimnally Negligent
and Evidence is Sent to Prosecutors
Sees One Bright Ray.
WASHINGTON - In one or the
harshest reports ever handed down U
a government bureau the interstate
commerce commission held the direc
tors of the old management OF the
New Haven railroad criminally neg
gent and subject to prosecution under
the Sherman antitrust and other law J.
The commission has put the matter
Of criminal proceedings to Attorney
General McReynolds by referring 70
him a complete record OF testimony
taken. The committee also has called
the attention of District Attorney
Whitman to possible violation of state
laws. The commission estimates that
between $4,000, 900 and $50 ,0OO,O 900 has
been lost TO the New Haven stockhold-
ers through waste and impairment OF
values under the old management. 1t
expresses the opinion that a part at
least of this amount should be recov'
eIed from the individual directors and
others.
The result OF our research into the
financial workings of the former man
agement of the New Haven system"
says the report, has been to disclose
one of the most glaring instances of
maladministration revealed in all the
history of American railroads"
The commission finds that the late
]. II. Morgan and Charles H. Mellen
dominated the affairs of the New Hay-
en- road and that the other members
OF the board OF directors subordinated
themselves to the will of these two.
The commission refers repeatedly.
however, to the New Haven director
ate and officers as the IN organ.
