BARE PROFITS
OF INSIDERS
IN STOCK QUIZ
Clarence Dillon, Wall St.
Wizard Questioned
by Senate Body.

BIZ Scripps-HoWgrd Neicspgper Alliance
WASHINGTON. Oct. 4.-Clarence
Dnlon's claim to financial wizardry,
long gossiped about Wall street, was
established today by his own story
to the senate banking committee of
how he operates with other peoples
money.
Under questioning from Ferdin-
and PecOra, committee counsel, he
told how ne financed two invest
ment companies capitalized at $780,
OO0 900 900 by a $500 900 shoestrong
and large contributions from in
vestors and controls them under
conditions that assure Dillon, Read
& Co. the bulk Of profits.
Large Gains Admitted
Having explored the peculiar form
of the Dillon investment corpora
ton. a model of the boom era when
a total of S4,0O0,0 100000 was poured
into such enterprises, the committee
prepared to get details today f
handsome profits to insiders in
Dillon, Read. from investment cor
poration stock purchased at 20 cents
a share and sold on the market as
high as S72 a share.
The slender, ruddy-faced finan-
cier. chief stakeholder in his COM
pany, made no profits from sale Of
stock because he still has it, he told
the committee, but he confirmed Mr.
Pecora'S finding that others in the
firm sold for large gains.
Losses Are Absorbed
Mr.. Dillon. who shuns publicity,
was a very ready witness before the
senate committee, protesting anna
bly, only occasionally at the con-
struction some members. particu-
larly the multi-millionaire Senator
James Couzens rep, Mich), put
upon some of his operations.
The inquiry revolves about two in
vestment trust corporations into
which variety Of investments are
gundled-the United States and
Foreign Securities Corporation and
the United States and International
Securities Corporation, the latter
built upon the successful model of
the former.
MIR. PecOra plans to inquire as to
how investments that turned sour
we're dumped into the pot in these
investment companies so their i'll
effects could be absorbed by more
productive ones.

THE story jumps to Alaska. Up
l. in Ketchikan a veteran oper-
ator named J. P RauSt has
equipped two planes to prospect
the great Arctic barrenS between
the Yukon river and the Arctic
ocean. He hopes to find new
field that will rival the old Klon-
dixie and the Tanana valley.
Meanwhile. veteran mining
operators are not the only per-
sons in Alaska who are hunting
gold. There is the story of a
preacher who was invited to din
ner in a home in one of the old
mining towns, now almost deserted.
When he arrived there was no
one in the house nor in the town.
His host had killed a goose in the
reverend's honor and in the
goose's craw had found gold mug
get. The whole town was out
searching for gold.
Nor do you have to go to Alaska
to hear such a story. A few weeks
ago Frederick BlaSchke. sculptor,
killed a duck on his farm at Cold
Spring, N. Y. In the ducks crop
were glittering grains of gold. The
find caused less excitement in Cold
Spring. Cold Spring is not as
goldminded as Alaska, but if gold
keeps going up it may learn to be.
The story jumps to Brazil. q.
"The discovery of gold in large
quantities in the state of Mahan-
hao has demoralized the region.
Not only are the farmers aban-
doning their farms in quest of
gold but the state governments
have ben obliged to send troops
to maintain order. According to
dispatches, 5000 prospectors are
digging gold, registering a daily
production of about 84-5 pounds"
A ND to British Guiana g.
L N Hundreds of gold seekers
have encamped along the banks of
the Okuwa river drawn to the
Honey Camp area by reports of
extensive gold discoveries. First
news of the strike reaching the
coast started stampede of
miners-old-timerS ard amateur
alike. A pocketful of dust and
nuggets panned from the river silt
was valued at $4,000 by the de-
partment of mines.
A worldwide gold rush is
queer thing. Apparently it has re-
suited in new discoveries of gold
everywhere. They have even dis
covered more gold in the Trans
vaal, greatest gold-producing re-
gion in the world Reports indi-
cate that an extension of the great
Rand reef, forty miles away from
the old field, has been discovered.
This was done with a magnetic
meter, another new tool to help
miners. A magnetometer is
highly SenSitized instrument which
shows any deviation from ordinary
geological formations. 1t can only
be used, however, in regions where
there is no completely of ores.
Next-Days of '49 Again.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1933-10-04

the two stores and equipment for
the miners.
1t even brings in the necessary
dynamite. Last spring as pilot
Phil Sauve was taking off from
Chapleau with load of dynamite,
one of his skis broke. An air
plane filled with dynamite and
only one ski to land upon-such
are the thrills of the 1888 gold
rush. Pilot Sauve brought his
plane down safely on the one ski
and the miners went on mining
gold.
Now shift to Queensland, Aus
tralia. Late last year a wander
ing prospector Clipped at an out
cropping of rock. He examined
the result and suddenly grew
tense. Hurriedly he staked out
his claim and another gold rush
was on Almost within hours
other prospectors had arrived and
we're tying on" Thousands are
busy mining gold there now.
Throughout western Australia
there is similar excitement. In
dozens of likely places men are
chipping and psnning gold, and
always the airplane follows them.
No great reef of gold has been
discovered, but enough new gold
had been produced by the middle
of 1888 to raise Australia's out
put by more than $2,500,O00.
