NEW YORK, March 10.-The
power of the House of Morgan
has passed from father to son
through five generations.
Greatest of the line have been
John Pierpont Morgan senior and
junior, the third and fourth gen.
erations.
Fire Gives Him Start
Joseph Morgan, great-grand-
father of the present Morgan,
realized the foundation of his for
tune and that of his sons when
fire swept New York in 1885.
The insurance company in
which he was interested paid
claims promptly and reaped re-
wards through sale of new BUSH
ness based on the confidence of
policy holders.
His son, Junius Spencer Nor
gan, attained his ambition to be-
come a merchant with his fathers
funds and increased his capital.
Financiers To Monarchs
But the Morgan name was not
to blossom gloriousIy until John
Pierpont Morgan, born in 1887,
lived to turn the world on finger
tips of gold.
With his death in 1913 his son
and namesake, born in 1867,
calmly assumed direction of the
gigantic banking house, dickered
with kings and presidents, amass-
ed millions and gave away mil
lions.
Quietly and almost secretly
each of the sons started in the
business of their fathers to carry
on the name of Morgan.
Today back of the thoroughly
guarded door at % Wall street
sit j. p. Morgan's two sons, Junius
S., who was made a partner in
1919, and Henry S., who was made
a partner in 1928. They are
''learning the business"
Mustached Morgan the elder
loved his children.
ITO this day." writes John X.
Winkler, the biographer, "the
Morgan children look on their
fathers memory with a degree of
reverence approaching religious
awe. In turn, Morgan's venera-
ton of his father was almost
Oriental in its intensity.
Occasionally, generally late at
night alone upon the ocean, he
would speak of his early life, the
careful training his father had
given him at home and in BUSH
ness and the latter's pride when
he first found his son standing
on his own feet"
Parallel Careers
The present j. p. Morgan did
not come into the public eye UNI
til his fathers death-at which
time he dropped the Junior"
from his name-but since then
there has been strange parallel
in their careers.
Both men bolstered their coun-
try's finances--and added to the
Morgan millions-during major
wars.
Each faced "A senate investigat-
ing committee calmly, sailed on
their yachts "COrsair," collected
objects of art, contributed liber-
ally to museums, and each was a
diocesan lay delegate to several
triennial conventions of the Pro-
testant Episcopal church.
A Point Of Difference
In their public attitude through
the daily press, however, the men
differ.
Senior hated newspapermen
thoroughly. but junior has been
more inclined to talk for publica-
ton and to pose patiently for
news photographers.
But of the two sons in the bus
mess today the public seldom
hears.
John Pierpont Morgan. like his
father, is monarch of % Wall
street.
Mister Morgan's sons" said a
secretary casually, ''also work
here"

General MOseley Arrives Here
For Inspection Of Army Post

of native guides. Lieutenant Nose
ley served throughout General
Bells Batangas campaign where
he commanded numerous impor-
tant missions. This finally led
him to the staff of General j. NJ.
Lee, with whom he served in var
ious parts of the world for four
years.
Enters General Staff
Upon return from several years
service in the Far East, Captain
Moseley graduated from the Com
mand and Staff College and the
Army War College,, and entered
the General Staff in 1911 as a
captain. In 1912 he was sent as
an observer with the German and
French armies, thereafter going
to England where he made study
of the English reorganization of
their War Office. Many of his
ideas and recommendations on or
ganization and training are incor-
porated in our army today.
When trouble with Mexico
threatened in 1916, Captain Nose
ley was selected for duty as Chief
of Staff of the Pennsylvania Di-
vision, National Guard, and was
commissioned a colonel, Pennsyl-
vania National Guard. He is still
remembered with admiration and
affection by his National Guard
associates of the Mexican Border
days.
The World War brought the
most difficult assignment of Gen
eral Moseiey's career. Modern
warfare requires that an amazing
amount of supplies and munitions
flow in a steady and never ending
stream to the fighting troops. In
the latter part OF 1917 il became
apparent that the success of the
American Expeditionary Force de-
pended largely on the success Of
tire supply system. General Perish

The object of the visit is an in
spection of Key West barracks

General Moseley is one of the
most distinguished officers in the

most colorfuI one. This is shown
by the following review of the
outstanding events of his life.
Review of Career
Major General George Van
Horn Moseley recently assumed
command of the Fourth Corps
Area, with headquarters at Fort
Mcpherson, Atlanta, Georgia. He
comes To Atlanta from Fort Hayes,
Columbus, Ohio, where he COM
manded the Fifth Corps Area.
Prior to April, 1888, he was sta
toned in Washington. d. C., where
he served as Deputy Chief of Staff
of the army.
Graduating from West Point in
1929, General Moseley, a. a young
lieutenant, was given the unusual
assignment to command a post on
the Mexican Border. and retained
that command for one year until

WISE RESTRAINT
RIGHT REV. JAMES FREEMAN D., L. D. D. C. L.
Bishop Of Washington

Christian movement would have lent
freshened zeal and inspiration to a
long established church and added
TO its numbers q vast multitude Of
men and women. A wrong Judgment
and an unsympathetic attitude issued
in the setting up Of a powerful and
er-growing Christian organization.
Every now and again we are con-
fronted with situation analogous to
that we have related. There develops
within the church group of men
and women fired by great impulse
and highly resolved to better condi-
tions in the order of which they
are members. Their methods and
practices may run counter to those
that are widely recognized and their
excess of zeal may cause irritation
and provoke criticism. Almost in
evitably opposition to their course
accelerates their action and increases
their popularity. At the present time
the whole Christian church of every
name is witnessing movement that
Is placing fresh emphasis upon
what might be called "articulate re-
ligion." 1t Is movement that holds
strictly TO Christian profession of
faith, but demands that this express
sion shall be open and articulate and
that 1t shall be characterized by GER
tain definite and well-defined prac-
tices. II lays great stress upon the
scrtptural injunction, Confess your
faults, one to another" and 1t seeks
at all times and under all condi-
tions for the guidance of the Holy
Spirit. These practices are In no
sense alien to a Christian profession,
but the method by which the new
movement expresses them is more
demonstrative than that which Chris
tian believers commonly hold. OBJ
viously, there are among the strong
advocates of this new cult those who
overemphasize or exaggerate the i'm
portance of new ways Of Christian
faith and practice. Among the lead
ers OF this movement are men and
women conspicuous in every depart
ment of our life. We cannot believe
that ungenerous criticism Of this cult,
II 1t may be so called, can result in
anything other than the retarding Of
the whole Christian cause. We may
have our own conceits and prefer
ences as to the form our expression
of religion may take, but an ungen-
erous and critical attitude toward a
movement that seeks for a more
demonstrative expression Of faith can
but react unfavorably upon the
church itself.

Russian Trade.

Exactly simultaneous with the
establishment at Washington of the
Export Import Bank for the promo
ton of Russo-American trade the
Soviet Union has entered into five-
year commercial treaty with Great
Britain, which Is designed to bring
their business balance into equlib-
rum. A London dispatch to the As
sociated Press states what is obvious
ly the case-that the United States
bid for Russian markets is likely to be
greatly affected by the pact.
The arrangement would, in fact,
seem to foreshadow a very lively COM
petition between the British and our
selves for the Russian market, as the
Soviet is now pledged to quadruple Its
purchases from Britain. These
amounted to only s21,3oo,o00 last
year. Augmenting them to roundly
$4,000, 900 would bring British sales
to Russia close to the s100, 900 900
peak export of American goods to
the Soviet, reached two or three years
before recognition. John Bull pur-
chased ss7 100000 worth of wares
from Russia last year.

road at comfortable pace, evidencing
none Of the panic haste which less
philosophic people manifest in their
nervous rush across the landscape.
They journey for the pleasure Of the
experience, and the stole calm which
they exhibit Is an effective rebuke to
the speed fends who pass them by.
The average tin can" addict may
be a retired grocer or bookkeeper or
policeman. He has wanted to see
America, the idea has been nourished
in his mind for long time. Then,
at last, he is free to indulge his
hankering. He renovates his old car,
persuades his wife, and sets forth.
Responsibilities he has none, capital
may be scant, but it is enough. With
out fixed goal, he meanders from
place to place, a motor peripatetic get
ting some quiet Joy out of the sunset
of life.
If the tin can" fellowship is not
envied, it ought to be. Their con-
vention was a note of color-rosy-
hued, probably-in a world just a
trifle too gray for most folk.
