M. €0, Committee of Bankers and Busi- ness Men to Operate Concern New York, Dec. 7. ton Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge company, with its many millions of orders yet to be filled, will be operated at the direc- tion of a committee of bankers and business men for some time. The committee, it was learned yesterday, consists of James H. Perkins, vi ient of the National City Bank; G. M. P. Murphy, vice president of the Guaranty Trust company; Henry S, Kimball, former president of the American Zinc, Lead, and Smelting company; Samuel F. Pryor, vice presi- dent of the Remington-Union Metallic company, ‘and W. E. 8. Griswold. Mr. Pryor has been elected chairman of the committee, Marcellus Hartley Dodge, who owns all but a few shares of the company’s $50,000,000 capital, has retired from the presidency, and has been succeed- ed by Mr. Kimball, Information regarding these devel- opment became public yesterday, al- though the committee was formed some time ago and has been looking after the financial details of the cor- poration’s business for a number of weeks. In order to strengthen the financial structure, C. B. Hawley, for- mer head of the Laconia Car company, has been appointed treasurer of the Remington organization, The bankers have. undertaken their work on the committee, it was learned, because their institutions are exten- sively interested in the Remington company through loans. Last Feb- ruary the corporation put out $15;- 000,000 three-year 5 per cent. notes in order to raise additional working capital, and later found it necessary to borrow substantial sums for the same purpose. It was estimated in the financial district in mid-summer that more than $10,000,000 was borrowed from the banks. In August last a program for re- financing the company was mentioned in official quarters, the result chiefly of slow deliveries of rifles contracted for by the British, French and .Rus- slan governments, and consequent slow receipt of payment for the arms. No further news of internal develop- ments appeared after that, except the general information that production had been speeded up and expenses largely reduced. The company, it was said recently strengthened its financial position in the last few months by the sale of machinery which had been bought and stored early in the war, when Mr. and his associates believed it wise to plan ahead for the filling of more war contracts than they then had in hand. The company was relieved of a burden a month ago when, with the Midvale Steel and Ordnance company and the Winchester Repeating Arms company, it arranged with the British Dodge | government to manufacture the re- mainder of the rifiles under contract with that government on a cost basis. Bankers in touch with the Remington situation said yesterday that work on the contracts was going ahead in sat- isfactory fashion. The Remington Arms company and the Union Metallic Cartridge com- pany were brought into one organiza- tion last year. At the time the notes were issued it was announced that to- tal assets were $64,000,000, of which $32,000,000 was in cash' or assets which could be quiekly liquidated, “GOLD MEDAL QUARTET” Singers from Hampton Institute Will Sing Plantation "Melodies at South Church This Eevening, This evening at the South Congre- gational church the second parish supper of the year will be held after which the Hampton Quartet Hampton Institute, Hampton, Vir- ginia, will render sefections in the church. This meeting is open to the general public as it is for the benefit of the institute. The quartet has been termed the “Gold Medal Quar- tet” as it was awarded a gold medal at the recent San Francisco [EXposi- tion. ~ The plaintive melody and haunting rythm of the ola plantation melodies of the south is now famous throughout the country and dreams of Dixie are brought back by such songs- as “Roll, Jordan, Roll” and “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot.” “‘Cephas Returns,” a motion picture, shows Hampton’s message carried by one of her graduates to the Sea Islands. Cephas, having graduated from Hampton, fitted for the work of a farm-demonstration agent, returns to his people and his problem. His father, a Sea Islander, meets him at the ferry and together they drive homeward under the moss-draped oaks into the country of long stapled cotton. The land, weary with s continued burden of cotton, appeals to the Hampton-trained farmer and the neglected flelds, with poor shel- ters for homes, cry out to him. To his wondering family at home and to groups of Islanders here and there, he tells vividly of the work and study at Hampton. Cephas finds his place as farm demonstration agent at Penn School, under Hampton’s direc- tion and his happiness in furthering the work of the school toward an ideal community. Hampton has no endowment ade- quate for its support and ea its leaders must face the possibility of over $125,000. President Wilson says of Hampton Institute: “The peo- ple who are aiding Hampton are do- ing a really great work for their coun- try.” Miss Anna Beecher Scoville, who has lectured before the Woman’s club on folk songs of the south, will also speak briefly on the negro race. } —The Reming- the j of ¢ CAmii aiv 2aid v (B ONE CENT A WORD EACH AL adverlsements tor the crassified column must he i the Herald office by 1:30 p. m. on the day of issue.
