Works of LuCien Powell, Other
Artists Sell Well at
Castle Sale

It was Lucien Powell day today
at the Henderson Castle auction,
when a start was made on the
sale of close to 200 paintings and
pieces of sculpture.
The bids were so high, as COM
pared to Auctioneer Adam
Weschler's appraisal value. that
many dealers in the swanky
audience sat glumly through the
proceedings without bidding.
The prices were Every satisfac-
tory" according to George Ede-
lin, administrator of the Mary E.
Henderson estate, but they prob
ably didn't approach the prizes
originally paid for them. a price
that was enhanced by the mas
sive frames in which they were
hung.
Powell PredOminates
Powell's works predominated
at the session today. In fact,
they were so profuse that many
voiced the belief the prices were
kept down for that reason. One
of Americas outstanding artists,
Powell was discovered" by Mrs.
Henderson and started on the
way to prosperity when she pur-
chased a dozen of his paintings.
Mrs. G.. F.. Fahnestock, Wash
ington society leader, paid the
highest price of the morning
sale for a Powell painting, but
an oil woodland Scene" by
Hobart Nichols drew down the
top price, 5000.

shop joint council, representing the unions, as the exclusive bar gaining medium for employees.
 There are a large number oi the company's employees who have not chosen the joint shop council or the unions to represent them for purposes of collective bargaining. " the reply of President S.sM. Stone to the NLRB stated,
 "The language of the section (7-A) says nothing about ma ajor- ity rule which means as applied by the national labor relations board that 51 per cent of the workers are entitled to represent all of them for the purpose of col icctiye bargaining even If the other 4S per cent do not wish them to do so. This doctrine was announced in the so-called house decision. de- cided by the national labor rela- tions board August 30. 1884"
 The company, Stone said. &C., cepted the majority rule, althougl, 1t was uncertain whether union employees were in a majority.
 Doubts the Majority
 He said he doubted whether a majority of employees, at the pres ent time, wish to be represented by labor leaders connected with the American Federation of Labor who have come here in connection with the strike from other states"
 These leaders. he charged are "more interested in. making trou- bic than helping those whom they profess to represent. xx The company is not willing to submit to the demands of outside labor or ganizations. It is willing to deal with its own employees individually or collectively. It cannot allow all

 Baruch testified that when he was made chairman of the war in- lustries board in 1917, he lar. ranged to dispose, even at a loss when necessity arose, of all those securities affected by the war" He said his income in 1916 was $2.S0i,028, on which he paid taxes of $261,169. In 1917 his income was $617.06f. and taxes $263,762. He said he reported no taxable Income in 1918 and 1919 "as I have sold large portions of my holdings, showing actual losses | money in Liberty bonds" Not One Dollar Invested Never from the moment I was called to the government service did have dollars worth of interest in any concern manufacturing munitions of war" Baruch said.
 Immediately upon my coming to Washington, although I was at l first merely in an advisory capac- ity and not charged with procure ment or executive responsibility, even remotely touched upon my official activities.
 T took this step freely and at a heavy cost to my fortune. I made absolutely no purchases of securi- ties except bonds, most govern ments. In buying these bonds l | was, of course, under the necessity of selling some of the other secur- tiles had in my box, which, as the records show, were sold at a loss.
 From the time I entered the service until I left in July, 1919, was not participant either di- rectly or indirectly in any market transactions"
 Baruch submitted statement showing that at one time during the war he held $5,300,000 of Lib- erty bonds. He owned stock in only three companies. he said - Alaska Juneau, Texas Gulf Sul- phur and the Atolia Mining Com pany.
 The latter concern produced Tungsten. a valuable alloy used during the war In steel manufac- turing. Baruch has been criticized for maintaining an interest in the company while he was working for the government.
 He told the committee he en- deavored to dispose of his holdings. but there was no market "in spite of the dividends the company had paid.
 "I was compelled to retain my holdings" he said. T did not resort to the subterfuge of fake transfer" He testified that all dividends received from the concern during the war were paid to charities. Eventually, he said, the mine be- came useless.

 France Secs No Peace
 Paris, March 27 - (UP) - France foresees abandonment of efforts to hold an early European modification conference, 1t was un. derstood today as the result of the British c erman negotiations at Berlin.
 The Berlin conference was con- sidered failure because Sir John simon obtained not single con- cession from Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler which might be used as basis for discussion.
 France, 1t was intimated. prob. ably will proceed with plans to denounce Germany's violation of the Versailles treaty to the League of Nations Council.
 Then would come Foreign Min. ister Pierre Lavaps visit to Russia and speedy negotiations for con. clusion of a series of alliances to offset increased German military strength.
