Gould Retires From Head of Missouri Pacific Board
The Kuhn Loeb interests sought an injunction to block the director election as George J. Gould faced a pivotal vote. Gould chose to honor his pact with New York financiers, allowing Edwin and Kingdon Gould and himself to serve under Kuhn Loeb guidance. The result installs Lancaster Williams and other independents, signaling Gould’s move from president to chairman. Clarke replaces Slocum but may step down for a Kuhn Loeb Rockefeller-backed president.
