But how are they ever to feel confidence again until they know who at was that betrayed them? Mr. Mellen was only the highly trained player who made the moves in a colossal game of exploitation that bigger men watched and directed. What actually became of the millions juggled out of sight in acquiring trolleys and steamship lines that “had to be had” at “prices that had to be paid”? Who got these millions and how much did the directors know of what was going on? Two hundred and four million dollars were drawn off from the New Haven treasury into outside channels. Do the same powers still preside at the tap? Wher New Haven stockholders have heard answers to these ques- tions, and not until then, will it he time to talk of confidence. ——_}-+—__— ‘The Colonel in vaudeville on the Australian circult! only booking left for America's leading entertainer?
