Nye asked the elderly Vander llp, "that the barriers would be down and you could then put through other loans?" "I didn't give that a thought," he said. Morgan's contention that financial transactions did not lead this coun try Into the war was read from a printed statement. Committee members protested Im mediately. Some said it was "not responsive" to questioning aud served only to "Interfere with the progress of the hearing." "1 object to any more stump speeches." snapped Senator Clark ID., Mo.) Thomas W. Lamont, a Morgan part ner, retorted that members of the commlttoe "have made statements of our share" in Influencing the United States' entry Into the war. Germany Blamed "When the United States of Amer ica cabie Into the war," Morgan said, "It was not driven into it by any Individual or individuals of any class. It came In because Germany had made it Impossible for the United States to refrain any longer. Ger many drove the United States Into the war by a series of Insults, and Injuries, resulting in the loss of many American lives, any one of which In juries might have proved a cause of war had the United States not been so desirous of maintaining peace." Morgan and his senior partners went' before the committee to an swer questions about the part their firm played In financing the world war. Every entrance to the building was guarded by police and secret service nien as the famous financiers arrived. Photographers swarmed around Morgan as he sat down in the huge committee room.

Davis, one time Demo cratic presidential candidate, appear ed as counsel for the Morgan group. The space for spectators was not all filled. Nye, who contends American loans 1 to the allies helped draw the Unltd States Into the war, asked if the witnesses were present. They took their seats In front of the committee table Morgan and La mont In front, Vanderlip and Whit ney and their advisors Just behind. In an exchange with Senator Van denbers (R.. Mich), Morgan said his house had sentiment for the allies "right from the beginnh;s." BE ORGANIZED IF MUSICIANS INTERESTED A movement la being started by W. T.
