Some of the letters mentioned were
to the late Gene REILLY, for many
years golf professional at the Water

urged to buy stock in the Canadian
branch of McKesson's.
Mr.. Philips said that these letters
went to some of his best friends and
he was always quick to urge them
to buy the stock because he had so
much confidence and faith in it
himself.
The Price, Waterhouse audit
which was identified by Mr.. Phillips
as one which had great influence in
his high estimate of McKesson and
Robbins, Ltd, was issued in 1928 and
showed the Canadian branch oper-
ating at profit of ST., 1000 net. This
influenced him greatly in talking
up the stock and telling about the
very elaborate plans of advertising
and craftsmanship that had been
planned for it. He mentioned that all
this came out before corporation
papers were signed for the Canadian
company.
The witness also claimed at one
point that never did he hear any
thing said about abandoning the
Canadian. branch.

to sail near the coastline, going up

the denomination of Sen. Joseph F
Guffey, New Deal Democrat, in

Guffey, who has gone down the
line 100 per cent for President
Roosevelt's policies, defeated Walter
A. Jones, wealthy oil man, in the
Democratic primary, and promptly
announced that he considered him
seld standard bearer" for third
term for the president.
Senators unfriendly toward the
New Deal conceded that Guffey's
victory had given Mr.. Roosevelt a
big boost, but some expressed doubt
that Guffey could carry the state
in November unless he ran on a
ticket headed by the chief executive.

did not press the point.
Would Cross Decks
According to McHale, the Ger
mans desired to have one OF their
ships draw alongside the Mormac-
sea-which was tied at the pier
and move their war materials across
the deck of the American ship to
the shore.
Just before sailing on April Ia,
McHale said, he requested the Ger
mans to reveal the locations Of
mines they had laid in the harbor
so that his ship could depart in
safety. The Germans refused the
request, he said.
The Mormacsea sailed from New
York on Feb. 10. She reached Ber-
gen IN March where she remained
for 80 days unloading her cargo of
war airplane parts and machine
guns, consigned to Finland and
Sweden.
A drastic shortage of flat cars for
unloading caused the long delay in
Bergen. She left Bergen on April
6 and arrived at Trondheim April 8,
the day before the German in

Under orders from the New York
offices of the Moore-McCormack
