Last week, however. General Johnson's rough handling of the steel union leaders had won him so many enemies that he was all but useless as a mediator. Labor had even turned against its oldtime friend McGrady. And the passage of the new labor disputes law (TIME, June 25) authorizing the President to set up impartial labor boards automatically put Senator Wagner out of the picture.* After seeing the President sign the new measure, he cheerfully remarked: "Now I can return to my Senatorial duties and play a little golf...
...elected Senator. Lately he reached the U. S. from Asia on a tour around the world. Paris chuckled last week at news that "Momo," pulling a solemn face, had visited the U. S.

Chase lately arranged to transfer what little remains of its securities organization to First of Boston Corp., divorced affiliate of Boston's First National Bank. Many of the old executives who went to Chase with its purchase of Harris, Forbes in 1930 have already departed to form their own firm. Dissolution...
...only way to tell how much money Henry Ford makes or loses is to find the difference between each year's profit & loss surplus on the balance sheet which Ford Motor Co. is required to file annually in certain states where it does business. On that basis of rough calculation, financial writers were able to deduce last week from a statement of condition for 1933 filed with the Massachusetts Commissioner of Corporations, that Ford Motor Co. had finished the year with a $3,923,000 deficit against a deficit of $79,247,000 in 1932.
