ctal meeting OF Its directors Senior
Vice-Presfdent Samuel NJ. Vauclain was
elected president. Mr.. johnson will con-
tinue as member OF the board of d.
rectors. His retirement from the presi-
dency and the election of Mr. vauclain
TO succeed him Is a development that
has been foreshadowed in reports cur
rent for long time. The reports have
been to the effect that questions of BUSH
ness policy, the resumption of dividend
payments on the common stock OF the
company and other matters have been
the basis Of some differences OF opinion
among certain interests OF the company.
That the change was due to friction in
the management or differences between
Mr.. Nauclain and Mr.. johnson was de-
MED by Mr.. Vauclain.
The fact that Mr., johnson and I
have been 80 closely associated for more
than forty years should be a SUFFICIENT
