and outlining efforts of the large stockholders to save it He said late in 1530 Edsel Ford lent the Guardian Detroit company a subsidiary 1 million dollars in cash and 5 million dollars in securities A years later he said Ford "lent his credit to the group company on a loan of 21ii million dollars with the Continental Bank in Chicago" A year after the witness added the Ford Motor Company lent the group company 312 million dollars which as used to "lift out of the Union Guardian Trust Company 31-2 million dollars of criticized assets" Lord said large stockholders had contributed nearly 27 million dollars "in order to strengthen and stabilir the entire situation in the protection of the depositors "Admittedly the institutions in the Guardian Detroit Union group made many mistakes" Lord said "but to the best of my personal knowledge they were 'mistakes of judgment' 'Broadly speaking the greatest Mistake of the group as that it was organized at the peak of the nation's' we along with

Staff) WssunsicroN Dec 19 Senator Bennett Clark stands' ready to "go along" with President Rocsevelt in the congress that is soon to get under way and aid the executive in adoption of his program The militant young Missourian who last winter startled the older partY leaders with his attacks CM some of the Rookveltian principles feels certaM the President will not wander very far afield If the President stands pat and simply asks congress to provide the necessary funds for the completion of the program Senator Clark is almost certain to be found in the supporting ranks "I'll be in favor of continuing the public works program and necessary appropriations if the projects are made specific but I'm tired of voting for lump sums" Clark said today The Missourian has been a bit critical of the delay in getting men back to work and blames red tape in the various public works agenciqs as the cause Now however be says much of the delay has been eliminated allotments have been approved and hundreds of thousands of men put back to work Senator Clark has been devoting considerable attention to the problem of arriving at a proper gallonage tax on haul liquor For many years an advocate of repeal he now says the cause of repeal will be lost if the government insists on taxing liquor so heavily that bootlegging can remain profitable Clark has under consideration forcing an investigation of the charges that a whisky trust has a corner on all aged liquor He also is prepared to vote for an increase in income taxes Until the treasury department is more specific in its recommendations and thg budget is sent to congress he will reserve judgment on how much of an increase he will favor WASHINGTON BORYAU THE KANSAS CITY STAR GIO ALMA BUILDING (By The Star's Correspondent) WASHINGTON Dec bringing together of the far flung emergency agencies of the federal government in each state with a state director and local councils in the 3106 counties will be inaugurated at the initial meeting today of the national emergency council The state directors who will scoordinate all of the emergency activities will become the direct representatives of the administration in the field and provide the central organization for the different activities such as relief employment and industrial recovery At the department of agriculture It was said the new setup progably would take over the enforcement agencies for milk and other marketing agreements awl codes which have been put in effect It probably will not include the production control machinery now in operation as the voluntary wheat tied corn allotment committees in the counties The White House in announcing the first meeting of the national emergency council said it would not take over control of the state and local agencies for thirty days after December 17 That a will give time for the formation of the new emergency organization 'Frank Walker who has directed the work of the executive council will be the head of the new federal co-ordinating agency He has been working on the plan several weeks At the offices of Senator Clark of Missouri and Senator McGill of Kansas steps had not yet been taken today in recommending the directors for the two states It is understood In some states the administration will permit the Democratic senators to select the directors who may become the most important individuals in the emergency recovery program At present scores of directors and local committees are supervising different phases of the program There has been little or no co-ordination of these
