year each they could buy control OF

OF Baltimore & Ohio and Erie together
in less time, and OF all through lines
between Chicago and New York within
flve years. Tie National City Bank
oilers this suggestion as d substitute
Tor the Plumb plan. and it can be adap-
Ted Tor application to the other indus
tries. and save the proposed revolu-
sion advocated by radical leaders in
order that industry be turned over to
