With Lamont, Whitney, and Stotesbury, he left the room. After they departed, I said to those remaining: "Now, gentlemen, I appoint John D. Rockefeller, Jr.

chairman of a National Share Our Wealth Committee, and I appoint as additional members Andrew Mellon, Winthrop W. Aldrich. Pierre S. du Pont, Irenee du Pont, Owen D. Young, Charles M.

Schwab, and Bernard M. Baruch. I further empower Mr. Rockefeller as chairman to name such additional members as he may desire, upon sole condition that he shall name no member from the firm of J. P.

Morgan or its Philadelphia ally, Drexel and Company. You, Mr. Aldrich, will communicate that authority to Mr. Rockefeller. "Now, gentlemen, will you Join me at dinner?" They did.

To my surprise, HALF SOLES 1 ilklion's Views I was surprised, ton, by the views of old Andy Mellon. He told us that his fortune had become a tremendous bother and nuisance. It was apparent to me that he was an unhappy man, and that he wanted above all to have the affection of the American people, which he believed he had lost through no fault of his own. He appeared willing to assume a role in the Share Our Wealth program. Before the dinner ended, I named him Vice-Chairman of the Committee, and his face lighted with real pleasure when I made the appointment.

After dinner I said: ''Now, gentlemen, you will be called together, I presume, by Mr. Rockefeller, and undoubtedly you will meet in New York City.
