FOREIGNERS LIKELY TO WITHDRAW CAPITAL Tells House Committee That Available Number of Capable Directors Is Limited. fFrom Til? Tribun? Bureau. I Washington, March 5.?Contending that the business world, now beset with doubts ard troubles, should not be the victim of hastily prepared legislation. U F. I.oree, Pr?sident of the fxlaware & Hudson Company and former president of th? Baltimore A Oblo, t.?-day urged the House Judiciary Committee not to prohibit Inter licking directorates among common car? riers A blanket prohibition against Interlock? ing directorates-, Mr. I.oree argued, would result in confusion and possibly a de? preciation of railway values and further timidity on the part of the Investor, "The nexus between the multitude of corporate owners and the corporate prop? erty is the board of directors." Bald Mr Lore?, "and repreeenta th?i sole means by Which tl??- form, r exercises over the latt.r the ordinary i-ikIi's of ownership."

The same Individual in many cases represents tho same group Of investors in corpora? tions so widely separated that there could be betwi n them neither identity of inter? est nor conflict of nation, and so the most extreme notion of public policy would not justify a law restricting the owners' right to be ao r. presented. "Any i urtaUment of the ordinary right of any corporate owner freely to choose those Whom ha will support for directors and to vote for any persons by whom he may wish to be represented in the direc? torate is 8 restriction upon the power >.f th? owners to control Die property.
