RumOr Consolidation of
 Huge Soft Drink Interests

New York, May g UP)-Soft
 drinks occupied prominent place
 in todays crop of Wall street mer-
 ger rumors.
 Directors of the sl6o, 100000 Coca Cola Co.,. and the 5l.000,000 Canada Dry Ginger Ale Co.,. were
 said to be negotiating for con-
 solidation.
 The rumors said that later the
 Liquid Carbonic Co.,. which furnishes the "Fizz" for great part of the
 country's soft drinks. might be
 drawn into the merger. The Liquid Carbonic Co.,, is worth approximately
 $11. 100000.
