Nelson didn't like the bill He
didn't want Congress setting UP

CESS and be responsible to Con-

Nelson was his usua. smooth, evon-

self Eut when Taft popped off that
tie new WPB had no interest in
small business since the old OPM
Contract Distribution Division had
been abolished and its work put in
another division. Nelson took him
apart.

Taft quieted down
Nelson's newt congressional
victim was Albert j. Engel of

tough himself and gained his
reputation by becoming a self
appointed One-man sub-commit-

taxes of the first cantonment

made she rather startling
charges that Nelson and Sidney
Hillman had entered into an
agreement not to place any Ar

manufacturers of women's
clothes.
Nelson took care of tha. one in
a letter in which. among other

Chief of Stoffs Messenger
Retires After AZ Years

ONCE of the Secretary. The latter
retired April 80.
Mr.. Henderson recalls many Incl
dents concerning great names as
sociated with Army history. When
he was appointed it was as a mes
rSenger in the Office of the adjutant
general, May II, 1900, and the Philip
pine Campaign was underway. At
that time 1t. Gen. Nelson A. Miles
was commanding general of the
Army and Maj. Gen. H. C. Corbip,
known by the messenger as "the Big
Gun from Ohio" because of his
friendship with President Mckinley,
was the adjutant general, who in
those days performed what are now
the duties of the chief of staff. Gen.
S. B. M. Young was named first
chief of staff in 1908.
Gen. Miles retired in that year
and Mr.. Henderson recalled that
when a group of officers told him
how sorry they were to see him
leave, the old Indian fighter replied:
Don't be sorry to see me go. The
same wheel that turned me out VIII
turn you and all the rest-Time. )"

ton for a new trial for Orman "

In pronouncing sentence, the jur-
ist said they had committed grave
offenses that cannot be treated
lighted" He said he had taken
into consideration the time they
would get off for good behavior
when he fixed the sentence
The two had told the court that
Robert Payne, a Government worker
who had testified for the Govern
ment in Ewing's trial, had ap-
preached them with an offer of $10C
each to serve as witnesses against
Ewing. They quoted Payne as say
ing that his girl friend had enticed
IAN old goat" into her room to
compromise him
Hager and Miller, cousins, later
admitted this testimony was false.
Justice Morris has not yet ruled
on the motion for a new trial for
Ewing.

A Senate House Conference Com
mittee today agreed on compromise
legislation which would set up new
division in the War Production
Board with sl50,000,OO0 capital to
make loans to convert small plants
to war production.
The Senate had approved $780,
100000 capitalization and the House
s2Oo,oO0,o00.
The conferees also rewrote and
accepted a House amendment au-
thorizing Chairman Nelson of the
w. P. B., after consultation" with
the Attorney General, to permit
small business to do or omit doing
certain things he believed essential
to prosecution of the war, without
regard to the antitrust and Federal
Trade Commission laws.
The House provision on this made
no mention of the Attorney General
and separate bill on the same sub
ject approved Yesterday by the Sem
ate Judiciary Committee would have
made the antitrust exemptions sub
ject to approval" of the Attorney
General
Senator Taft, Republican, of Ohio,
a conferee, said the modification
giving Mr.. Nelson the sole authority
after getting an advisory report
from the Justice Department, was
acceptable to officials of that de-
partment.
Senator Taft added. however, that
the question would be fought out on
the Senate floor after the House
acts first on the conference report.
The bill as agreed on retained a
House provision making it virtually
mandatory for Government war
agencies to award contracts to small
enterprises certified as capable of
handling them.
