Morden Faces Resignations Over War Firm Shares
The piece notes electors warning against prejudice and Mrs Strachey clashing with industry leaders. A union and labor coalition backed by Dr Uberala claims to prove Morden profited from the British Celtulog Company, which surged from six pence to 72.50, while Morden says he lost 126000 in the venture and lent 500000 elsewhere. A commission investigates the firm and Morden vows to resign if its report harms his character.
