Denials followed by all concerned
Gary. Morrow and Miller.
The World today said that the di-
rectors were not unanimous on the
question of approving Miller as
Gary's successor at the helm of one
of the largest corporations in the
world and that there was a posi-
bility that a temporary chairman
would be named pending agreement
on permanent successor to Gary.
The annual meeting of the corpora.
ton is in April and, according to the
reports, none of which were con-
firmed from officers of the company,
Gary would step aside at that time.

that formal approval of the selection

would not leave the control of the
