CHARGES DENIED
MR MELLON’S POSITION. (United Press Assn.—By Telegraph—Copyright.) Washington, January 15. A denial of every impeachment charge by Representative Patman to the House Judiciary' Committee was made to-day by Mr Mellon’s representative, Mr Alexander Gregg, who said that Mr Mellon controls no corporation. “What his family and business associations control I don't know. Mr Mellon does not own more than 50 per cent, of the stock in any corporation,” Mr Gregg said. Mr Patman charged Mr Mellon with taking part in a credit extension to Colombia arranged by a New York banker about the time a large oil concession was granted to Mr Mellon, who owned the Gulf Oil Company.
