NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-F-Col-
onel Robert w. Stewart today was
claiming support Of the majority OF

jority Of the votes
Before departing for Chicago aft
er attending a meeting Of the board
OF directors Of the National City

The progress Of the fight Is sat-
~isfactory. I have already received
the support Of a majority OF the
stockholders-in fact a large ma
jOrity. Our total Of votes Is increas-
ing each day.
This fight Is to determine wheth-
er the wishes Of q few investment
stockholders are to triumph against
the most pronounced opposition Of
the companys employees, who. after
ali, make the company. The en-
ployees and the company's consum-
ing public want the present man
agement and It's policies continued"
In reply to this, Thomas w. Debe-
voise. representing the Rockefeller
interests. said:
Il can't understand what Colonel

a majority unless he means n ma
joritv Of the number Of stockholders.

FOR INAUGURAL
Hoover Expected to Discuss
Prohibition, Farm Relief,
Tariff, Immigration

WASHINGTON. FEB. 77.-lR-
President-elect Hoover In his in
augural address next Monday Is ex-
pected TO discuss the principal Is
sues in the campaign In which ne
won an entrance to the White
House.
Among these was law enforce
ment. involving the prohibition and
other statutes. the subject upon
which he touched in q number Of
his speeches. His opinion MS thus
expressed was that the purpose of
the eighteenth amendment was to
protect the American homes: that
he wished IL to succeed and that a
sacred obligation was imposed upon
the president TO secure its honest
enforcement and TO Terminate the
abuses which have grown around 1t.
Farm relief was another OF the
outstanding issues. and the presi-
dent-elect Is expected TO 60 into
this at some length. but TO give a
more expanded exposition Of his
views In his message to the spe-
cial session OF the new congress
which he plans now to call for mid
April.
The tariff was a subject upon
which Mr.. Hoover laid much stress
and which also isto be considered
during the spring and summer ses-
sion Of congress.
On the subject Of immigration.
the views Of the president-elec. rs
stated during the campaign Is that
limitation Is O fundamental part OF
the protective system because II
prevents a flood of labor from
abroad which would break down
American wage levels.
