The meeting on the Potomac looked like simple Roosevelt curiosity. The barbecue on the Hudson farm looked like the beginning of a national alliance, or at least of local modus vivendi, between two once faithful Roosevelt allies...

Last week neat, genial Joseph H. Nuelle was elected president of Delaware & Hudson Co. to take the place of untidy, scowling Leonor Loree, who retired a month ago. Mr. Loree had run Delaware & Hudson since 1907, same year that Joe Nuelle (pronounced Nelly) started work for New York, Ontario & Western. While Mr. Loree was maneuvering Delaware & Hudson into a national prominence not strictly deserved by its present 847 miles of trackage, Mr. Nuelle was persistently working his way up from assistant engineer to principal assistant engineer to engineer of maintenance of way to chief engineer to general manager to president...
