Dwiggins, Back, Insists
Loan Club Will Not Suffer
He Asserts Any Shortage Is in First Bond Subscription
Which Was Backed by His Employers-Wife,
Who Surrendered Him, Collapses

Dwiggins during an hours cross-exam-
nation, the insurance agents losses in
stock speculation will amount, approx
mately, TO between $4,000 and $4,000.
IL is figured his total liabilities OF
about $4,000 would be Offset by as
sets, in cash and government bonds, az
between $4,000 and 100000.
Dwiggins made tho startling state
ment to Assistant District Attorney
Edward S. Brogan that there was abb
solutely no shortage in his accounts
a. far as the second Liberty Loan was
concerned. 1t was during the second
loan campaign that Dwiggins operated
the Omitted States Government Lib
erty Loan Club" plan whereby 5000
small subscribers are alleged to have
been feeced.
"He told me that if there was a
shortage. it would have TO be in the
accounts of the first loan" said Brogan.
"The activity in the first loan was au,
thorized by the company. which would
therefore be responsible for whatever
loss resulted from it.
"Dwiggins said he went ahead on the
second loan without such authorize
ton. but that in his weekly reports 10
the home Office he stated that ms
agents were doing the work, thus ex-
planning the decrease in the insurance
business the agency was doing at the
time.
"Dwiggins admitted to me that he
had speculated with the money, and
that he had a speculative account with
a downtown financial house"
Dwiggins Tells of Assets
According to Brogan, Dwiggins de.
clared he had $4,000 in cash and
bonds available to meet his liabilities.
OF this amount, $4,000 worth Of bonds,
ne said, reposed in his Office safe,
$4,000 additional in bonds was in a
safe deposit vault in the Chatham and
Phoenix Bank building and $4,000 was
divided among four accounts-two in
the Guaranty Trust Company Zone in
the name of Helen Dwiggins) and de-
posits in the Irving National and Ma
tionsl City banks.
"This money will account for every
penny subscribed on the second loan"
Dwiggins persisted. "There should not
be any shortage whatever on it. All
the money is on hand to cover the sec
ond loan in full"
Dwiggins's statement that if a loss
occurred IL would De found IN the nrsr
loan was contradicted fatty by an off
cial of the company. The official
stated such loss would have been
found long time ago. and gave it as
his opinion that Dwiggins was max
ing an eleventh hour attempt to shift
the responsibility for the losses to the
company.
At the Office of Francis L. L. Kohl
man. 81 Broadway. who was appointed
receiver in bankruptcy on Dwiggins'S
property, it was said that prelimi-
nary survey of his books had disclosed
ether speculative accounts besides the
one so far discovered.
Dwiggins will be arraigned to-mor-
row morning. President George
Kuhns of the Bankers Life arrived
here yesterday and began an investi-
cation Of Dwiggins's affairs. He will
make public tomorrow the decision of
the board of directors. taken at con-
ference in Des Moines, with REGARD to
making good the losses incurred
through their agents manipulations

Elmer Dwiggins, arrested on charge
Of swindling Liberty Loan bond Pur-
chasers, was brought here last night
from Montgomery, Ala, where he was
caught, and was locked up in the
Tombs. Just a week after his abb
-upt flight from the city Dwiggln''
head Of the New York agency OF the
Bankers Life Insurance Company, OF
Des Moines, Iowa. came face TO face
with his wife, who had aided the author
tiles in every way in his capture.
Dramatic in the extreme was the
meeting between the two-the staiwart'
sullen fugitive, a man of middle age,
bald. self-possessed, and the slight
woman, gray haired, gentle, who had
given him up "as matter OF simple
Justice"
Accompanied by Postoffice Inspectors
McQuillen, Williamson and Brannan,
Dwiggins was brought by detectives to
the Office of Assistant United States
Attorney Matthews in the Federal
Building. Mrs. Dwiggins had been no.
tilted of his arrival by telephone and
reached the Office a few minutes later.
There was a perfunctory embrace,
and Mrs. Dwiggins asked to be allowed
20 speak to her husband. They went to
another Office in the building. Then
for fifteen minutes Mrs. Dwlgglns DIS
cussed with the fugitive her part in his
capture and pleaded with him to tell
the authorities frankly all the facts in
the case.
Make a clean breast of it ALL" she
implored, while he listened impassive.
81 want you to tell everything you
know. ! want you to make right all
the wrongs you have done, TO see that
not one of the poor people who trusted
you with money loses cent"
Angry With Wife
Dwiggins, during the course of this
conversation, made several angry re-
plies, and appeared TO be beratlng his
wife for some step she had taken. lie
shook his head in vigorous negative
at one point, and the meeting ended
abruptly, Dwiggins returning to be
questioned by Attorney Matthews, De-
tective Sergeant Franklin, who was
mainly responsible for his arrest, and
officials OF the Pankers' Life, who had
been summoned by telephone.
Inc tHOllOUdl bIIdlU uHucr WHICH
Mrs. Dwggins had been laboring
finally resulted in her collapse. She
was walking through the dark halls
of the Federal Building with Dwiggins
when a photographer exploded a fash
lamp nearby. She tainted, and was
only prevented from falling by de-
tectives who surrounded her. She was
taken to nearby room and re-
ylved, while Dwiggins threatened the
photographer.
When seen later by reporters Mrs.
Dwiggins kept up a brave front and
declared herself convinced, after her
talk, Of the honesty of her husbands
motives.
81 feel sure that no one will lose"
she said. There is no question in my
mind Of the rectitude of his intentions,
and ! feel absolutely sure that every
thing will come out all right, and that
every one will be dealt with justly in
the matter"

Ford Offers His Factories
To u. S., Scoring Profits
Auto Maker Says Works Are Capable of Turning Out
5000 Military Trucks Day at Cost-Predicts
Machinery Will Win the War

Henry Ford, in a statement given to
the press for publication to-day, says;
"The factories and personal organi-
ration Of the Ford Motor Company are
at the disposal of the United States
government and its allies. The pro-
duction Of automobiles for pleasure
must be reduced. We have offered TO
follow any request that the United
States government makes. The IDLE
cars standing along any street sho"
that enough automobiles have been
built to last for while. For farmers
who must reach town, and professional
and business men who go to their
clients, automobiles are necessity.
The use OF the automobile has a bear
ing on the food problem. A horse con-
sumes in oats and corn as much 1000
as several men, and his hay and iodder
might produce milk and meat.
1.-THE United States must save its
labor power. III the Ford factory
man can build car in twelve days
We have worked ten years to reduce
the quantity of material and al inc
same time give strength. Light cars
save gasolene. Forty-fve thousand
men can produce in the Ford factory

TRANSPORTATION for armies and sup
niles is a basic need of war time. Rail
roads alone cannot handle the freight.
The Germans are reported to nave
moved recently an army OF 100000 men
from the Eastern to the western front
by auto trucks.
5000 Trucks a Day
"Tbe Ford plant can produce Z,oVO

War Board Will
Meet to Plan r. K.
Wage Arbitration
Federal Mediator Brings
Brotherhood Dispute Step
Near Settlement

Arbitration Of the wage differences
between the three railroad brother
hoods that have demanded increased
pay and the officials Of the roads was
brought a step nearer yesterday at a
conference held at the Hotel Manhst-
tan by Judge William L. Chambers
chairman of the Federal Board OF Me-
diation and Cancellation.
Four railroad representatives par
ticipated in the conference, which was
held for the purpose Of learning den
nitely whether the roads still adhered
10 their agreement Of year ago to
abide by the decision Of arbitrators on
the question of wages for their men.
Elisha Lee Objects
Elisha Lee, who was head Of the joint
conference board of year ago, at first
objected that he did not think those
present were authorized to answer so
important a question. He got in touch
with the Railroad War Board. in Wash
ington. however. and representatives OF
the various lines there were said to
have agreed to stand by their original
decision to arbitrate.
II was then agreed to call a meet
ing of the War Board in Washington
on Monday. instead of Tuesday. in or
der that further arrangements for Oh
tanning an arbitration agreement with
the men might be worked out.
Judge Chambers said that the men
had not yet taken definite stand In
favor of arbitration, but indicated that
he was we'll pleased with the prospects
of an amicable settlement Of the dif-
ferences Of the workers and roads
without the threat Of tie-upsof gov
eminent business during the war.
Suggests Bonus Plan
possible solution Of the wage prob
Ien was suggested by Judge Chambers
in n statement, in which he referred to
bonuses. such as are being paid in
some manufacturing plants, as one
method OF meeting the high cost OF
living without disturbing wage agree
ments.
In this statement he said:
"The railroads have voluntarily given
I'D much good paying freight. They
ave to handle twenty carloads Of coal
or steel to make the profit they former
~ got from one carload of musical in
strumcnts, for instance. But the
brotherhood members are suffering,
too. They find that they can make
more money at the mines or munition
plants than on the roads, and are leav-
ing rapidly.
standard OF pay might be left as it is,
with satisfactory results, if the gov
eminent would appoint commission
to examine each month into the cost
of living. Where it is found that the
cost of living is running ahead OF
wages, the men might be compensated
for the additional expenses they are
under by bonus system such as is
already in operation at many plants
about the country.
"While we may discuss this scheme
at Mondays meeting, it will be left for
final consideration TO the meeting
which President Wilson will hold with
the representatives Of the roads and
the brotherhoods on November 90"
Judge Chambers was at ,hc Hotel
Manhattan last night, but could not be
reached there during the evening. H.
will return to Washington to-day 10
attend to-morrow's conference.
