 Merger Report Denied
 One rumor that had gained head way was spike today, when Alvan Macaulay. president of the Packard Motor Car company, denied that his company was involved in any mer- ger with the Hudson Motor Car company, and the Briggs Body cor poration for the purchase of Dodge Brothers, Inc.
