WALL STREET IS HUCH INTERESTED Keeping Eyes on Lovee's Pro- posed Mergers New York, M 28 (AP) - strategic rallroad moves, one in the rapldly growing Twq southwest and the other in the highly competitive eastern trunk line territory, have focused the watchful eyes of Wall street upon Leonor ¥, Loree, the most compact railroad systems In the United States, the Kansas City Southern and the Deieware & | Hudson, At a time when: ambitious plans for taking shape in the different sec- tions of the country. Mr. Loree has taken independent action. laying the basls for prospective consolida- | tions hutlt around his own railroads. In Big Deal A former assoclate of E. H. Har- riman, Mr. Loree is credited with executing a play, reminiscent of the days of this great bullder, fo the east, sponsored a plan for a fifth n-nm: line in opposition to the “fo power” grouping proposed b the New York Central, Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio and Nickel Plate systems, Furthermore, the presi- dent of the Delaware & Hudson re- cently obtained a lease of the Buf- falo, Rochester & Pittsburgh rail- way. a small but prosperous soft | coal carrier, highly important to any plan of regrouping the eastern rajironds, The road originally had Leen allotted to the York Cen- tral under the “big four” proposals sutlined to the Interstate Com- merce Commission. Mr. Loree’s quiet and unexpected | asquisition of the lire, Wall street 1greed, hadl mvented the “big ‘our” consolidation scheme.

No direct negotlations for a merger have yet been broached, but when the Hime comes for liaking up the small southwestern lines, Mr. Loree and his assoctates, with two rail- roads under thefr control, probably will be able to dictate the terms |and lay-out of the merger, which s cxpected to embrace the 8t. Louls-8an Francisco, Chicago & |Alton and several smuller carriers, ! Sees Posibilities Notwithstanding the conjectural elements surfounding the ultimate development of the two systems, Wall street's imagination has not been slow to grasp the possibilitles |of sympathetic traflic relations which might be effected between a Loree rajlrdad in the southwest and a fifth eastern trunk line, which though the Wabash, would extend to i, Louls. Associates of Mr. Loree recall that it was only a short time ago that he was violently opposing what he termed “grandiose consolidations.” [n his merger plans they insist that lie will remain consistent to rinciple, and attempt to bulld new systems as compactly as possible, ‘RUSSIAN CROWN JEWELS - PLACED ON EXHIBITION, s |the Preshytery Kansas | this | | Feport, |Soviets Prove They Ixist—some Diamonds Weigh Over | 100 Carats Moscow, May 26.—(AD)—For- {clgn ministers and ambassadors sta- tioned here today saw the Russian | {'erown jewels, er to [ remove the belief ‘rlm).\‘ that the crown ewels had disappeared or been reduced in number, the soviet government in- vited all foreign the state vault | ures are stored. | The digplay was | cetimated value of was given 2s the equivalent n( $50,- 100,000, The soviet it is suid, intend preserving the jewels as evidence of the Javishiness and ex- travagance of the preceding 3 ‘l“llm(‘fl.
