MORGAN is AMERICAS
LABOR


Morgan banks, whose directors, 18I
in all, hold 2,023 directorships in other
corporations. These other corpora
tions include the principal commercial
banks outside their W circle, $50
miscellaneous corporations, 142 insur-
ance companies, 800 manufacturing
and mining companies, 234 transport
tation companies and 266 public util-
ity corporations. He likened Morgan
to a field marshal of an industrial
and financial army, made up of di-
visions, brigades, regiments and small
Ter units.
One Of the six Morgan banks is the
Guaranty Trust Co. Frey read the
list of banks on whose boards its di-
%rectors sit. These ranged from Bos-
ton to Butte. Then he read the list Of
railroads and steamship lines, and
pointed out that when Morgan direct
ors sit on the boards of railroad COM
panies, the rail managers do not make
their own labor policies; they do what
the House of Morgan directs.
"Why don't you save time and
trouble" Norris asked ironically, "by
holding your discussions of labor con-
ditions and wages with Mr.. Morgan
directly? 2"
"We would like to do that" Frey
replied, "but Mr.. Morgan refuses to
see us; he is unwilling to deal with
labor organizations"
1T would save him money to deal
with you direct, instead of through all
these middlemen, l should think" OBJ
served Norris. IF the time comes
when the government wants to buy
the railroads, | should say it would
have to talk to Mr.. Morgan"
"And borrow the money from him,
to pay for the roads," said Black.
Frey read the list of big corpora
tions in which Guaranty Trust Co. di-
rectors are represented. There was
Melons Aluminium Co. Of America,
the American Book Co., American
Cyanamid, Anaconda Brass, Anacon-
da Copper Mining, Berwind-W White
Coal, Bethlehem Steel, Bethlehem
Shipbuilding, Canada Dry Ginger Ale,
Coco Cola, Chrysler, Johns anville,
Crowell Publishing, Continental Bak-
ing, Ward Bread, Goodyear Tire &
Rubber, Illinois Union Coal, I%nterna-
tional Harvester, Lehigh Coal, Texas
Gulf Sulphur, Utah Copper, U. S.
Rubber, and so through the alphabet
of super-employers.
AS an instance of banker dictation
of labor conditions, Frey mentioned
the agreement of bankers in the San
Francisco Bay region, to refuse credit
to any builder whose name was given
them by the organization of anti-un-
ion employers as dealing with the
building trades unions. Bankers and
industrial employers were interlock-
ed through d~irectorates, and they CO.
operated in seeking to destroy trade
unionism in that area.
The witness touched only briefly up
IN the further power of the Morgan
banking hierarchy, as distributors If
investment bonds to smaller banks
and to insurance companies, to deter
mine what investments shall tie these
banks and companies to the Morgan
labor policy.

Cammerer Says Work Going On.
Hopes Park Will Be Open
Early Next Summer.

Arno B. Cammerer, director Of the
Interior Departments Office Of National
Parks, Buildings and Reservations, de-
clared yesterday it would be impossible
at the present time to grant any OF the
numerous requests by Washingtonians
for permits to traverse Skyline Drive,

park will be available for public use
by the beginning of next Summer.
At present, he said, engineers are at
work on the drive, preparing to place
a hard surface on it. Specifications are
being drawn up by the Bureau Of Public
Roads, Department of Agriculture, and
bids will be called for soon, he said.
Meanwhile, only persons having work
to do in the area, or officials OF the
State of Virginia, are being permitted
to drive over the trail. he added.

As yet, this production lacks the

These include Chico and Diane driv-

her sister good whipping, and that
dnal greeting between the two lovers
which brings them together for ever

Outstanding items in this produc-

CHAPTER TX
The Stone Wall

It was disgruntled and decidedly
perplexed detective who returned to
headquarters at four o'clock Friday
afternoon, three days after the MUIR
der. In turn, two suspects-Ned Pat
terson and Ralph Buckley-had cleared
themselves; the evidence he had so
painstakingly collected had disinte-
grated before explanations that
changed their value. The only i'm
portant case remaining was that in
eliminating the lawyer. And against
him. Rankin was not yet prepared to
move. Though a civil lawyer, Mr..
Fletcher was acquainted with the sub
tleties of criminal law and no mean
opponent; it was no trifiing matter to
charge him with murder until his facts
were altogether impregnable. First he
wanted to ferret out and marshal
every possible proof of his guilt. He
dared leave no loophole through which
the attorney might escape because of
his position or superior knowledge Of
legal technicalities.
The most serious weakness in his
theory of Mr.. Fletcher's guilt, he real
lied with fresh dismay, was the extra
person at the initiation. 1t was GER
tain someone besides the thirty-oue
brothers already identified had at
tended; but unless he was Ben Craw-
ford, his identity was still an enigma
But Crawford had every right to be
present and hence no apparent reason
to deny his whereabouts. Only his
peculiar tale of the pickup" rem
devious that had not materiaIized was
responsible for whatever suspicion ne
was under. And the nurse with whom
he claimed to have spent the night
could not check his movements: he
had not joined her until three-quarters
of an hour after the murder. On the
other hand. If he told the truth about
his absence from the ceremony, then
the unknown intruder and not Mr..
Fletcher must inevitably be the MUIR
derer he sought
As he reached the central detective
bureau, Rankin resolved to delay deal
ing with the lawyer at least until Gil
more reported his interview with
Crawford's nurse friend But it was
Mr.. Fletcher himself who forced the
issue for he was there, waiting to see
him. He had first phoned about two
thirty. Captain Thomas Informed the
detective, and learning that Rankin
was expected back later In the after
noon, stated he would stop in when
the court closed
