Rockefeller. Jr.. rather than com to relinquish his office as chairman of the board of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana. a position that he had held II years.
 Whether at work, on the golf course or at the bridge table. Col. Stewart is known as man who loves competition and hates to lose To quit under fire would be to miss a chance for fight with worthy ad- versaries.
 as Years With Firm
 Col. Stewart went with the Stan dard Oil company 22 years ago after the company has been attracted by his reputation as a corporation law yer in the northwest and asked him to handle case which had ;Sne against it.
 Stewart, the light Of battle in his eyes, succeeded in having the case | reopened and won. In 1915 he be- came general counsel and in 1918 he was chosen chairman of the board. His love of a fight resulted in the de- velopment of the competition be- tween Standard Oil groups-one of the things mentioned as factor in the effort to remove him.
 He fought with all of them. He battled the Standard of New Jersey for the Venezuelan and Spanish trade. encroached upon the Standard of Louisiana for the gulf coast trade and came to grips with the Standard of New York in New England. He carried the Indiana's trade into Kentucky and entered into a con- tract with Colombian oil interests despite the fact that the New Jer- sey company had millions of acres there.
 Won Renown as Lawyer Col. Stewart is 62 years old, a na- tive Iowan who made his early rep utation as lawyer in South Da- kota. He was graduated from Coe college and received degree at Yale. He settled in Pierre, s. D.. and went in for politics and the militia and was given credit for organizing the South Dakota militia on a sound basis. He served as county prescott tor. as reporter of the supreme court and as state senator. but interrupted his political career to join the Rough Riders during the Spanish American war. He. however. did not get to Cuba.
 He lives on the Chicago Gold Coast unostentatiously. entertaining informally often. but seldom formal ly. His wife was Miss Maude Brad ley Elliott of Aberdeen. S. D., and they have four sons. He waged the fight being concluded today in a characteristic manner. answering ev- cry criticism directed against him as rapidly as they appeared much as a fighter who delights in standing toe to toe and trading blow for blow.
 He never openly announced that he would win. But he never con- ceded defeat, even when his op- ponents said that they held proxies for nearly GO per cent of the stock.

BLUE MOLD" KILLING
 CONNECTICUT HORSES
Growth in Grass Poisoning Animals in state-Early Medical Attention Advised by Veterinarians

Norwich, March ! R-Veterina- rians examining the mystifying deaths of farm horses in this re- zion have concluded the animals were poisoned by blue mold" a growth that forms in grass during protracted season of wet weather.
 The mold causes depression of the heart and of the central nerv- ous system. Horses in the first stage stagger about to find something on which to lean their head. If the quantity of moldy grass eaten is con- siderable. death is likely to follow a period of illness. More frequently the animal has to be dispatched.
 Early medical attention, the vet. erinarians say. will save an affect ed horse. Farmers are advised 70 keep horses out of the pasture until it is dry.

BENN|NG ROAD
TAX APPEALED

More than 1000 names >of small
property owners will be attached to
the petition to be presented to JUS
tice William Hitz. of the District
Supreme Court, against the assess
ment for the proposed widening of
Benning Road Northeast.
The petition has been drawn up
by two members of the Trinidad
Citizens Association, Attorneys
Bruce L. Casteel and Charles 1.
Kaplan.
The method of assessment Is
faulty and the tax discriminatory.
according to the property owners.
1t is claimed that the burden is
placed exclusively on owners Of
small homes, who will derive no ad-
ditional benefit from the widening
Of Benning Road and that chief
benefit will go to the business in
terests and residents of the District
in general.
Therefore, it is claimed, the cost
should be met from the general tax

NJ CARL RULING
ON PERSONNEL
CLARIFIED

The Personnel Classification Board
will not be seriously handicapped as
a result of the order of Comptroller
General J. r. McCarl forbidding the
employment of persons by the board
who are not connected with the
three agencies authorized to furnish
personnel for it's general staff.
Capt. Carlos G. Van Leer, chair
man of the classification board, to-
day said that unless disbursing Of
ficers of government departments,
other than the Bureau of Eff
ficiency, the Civil Service Commits
sion and the Bureau OF the Budget,
place too strict an Interpretation on
McCarI's ruling, there will be very
little interference with the routine
work of the board.
May Borrow Employees
McCarl held that the board could
not engage an employe and have
him placed on the payroll of an
other department. This ruling how.
ever, will not prevent the board
from taking from any department
of the Federal government, en-
ployes versed in classification work,
Van Leer pointed out.
The board is directed by law to
form the nucelus of its office staff
from the three departments men
toned above. 1t has been the
custom of the board, however, Van
Leer pointed out, to draw clerical
workers from other departments for
temporary detail with the board.
Many of these workers have been
with the board for more than a
year. They could be recalled by
their home departments but the
bcerd could call out other workers,
Van Leer said.
May Confer With Hoover
A conference will be held this
week to decide upon steps directed
toward placing the personnel board
on an Independent basis it was
learned. Legislation may be asked
giving the board its own permanent
force with an individual appropria-
tion each year.
Heads of the three departments
around which the board is built may
confer with the President later in
the week to decide upon exactly
what action should be taken.
