Story Os Ouster Os Chrysler President * - < • v’* - ; * 4 -Ts, ■ '
By JIM KLOCKENKEMPER and JACK VANDENBERG Copyright 1960 By United Press International DETROIT (UPD—This is the previously untold story behind William C. Newberg’s ouster as Chrysler Corp, president and his pledge to return nearly half a million dollars in outside profits. From 1952 to 1955 Newberg and his wife owfied half the stock in Press Products Inc., a - firm which , made hinges, for Chrysler Corp, cars* it was learned by United Press International and confirmed by Newberg associates. From 1955 to 1958 Newberg and his wife owned. half.. the..stQck...m,. Bonan Corp., a firm which mantifactued first arm rests and later door trim panels for Chrysler cars. They had sold Pess Products to Atwood Vacuum Machine Co. in March, 1955. Atwood Vacuum Machine Co. is in Rockford. 111. Allen Industries, which -bought the assets of Bonan Corp., has a plant in Herrin, 11l , as well as in Detroit. The owners of the other 50 per cent of the stock in both firms were Detroit industrialist Ben Stone and his wife. Stone was fisted as president of the Bonan Corp, and Newberg was not listed

either as an officer or director. Liquidating Hfo (foldings In October, 1958,. Stone sold Bonan Corp, assets to Allen Industries and converted Bonan Corp, into Sango Corp., a firm dealing mainly in. gas .and oil wed developments, although Sango continued to have some business ties with the auto industry. Newberg and his wife continued to hold stock id Sdngo until about a year ago when Newberg, then Chrysler executive vice president, began to sell out his and his wife’s stock to Stone, who had a purchase agreement. Newberg’s outside holdings were in the process of liquidation when Chrysler President L. L. Colbert called a meeting of top executives i after the Chrysler stockholders meeting last April. An angry stockholder group, led by Detroit attorney Sol Dann, had made charges that Chrysler executives were profiting from interests in firms selling supplies to Chrysler. Dann called it “corporate payola.’’. Colbert told the executives to get rid of their interests in outside vendor companies before the end of that day.

GUESTS OF ST. PAIJL’S LUTHERAN—The. three teen-agers pictured above, who ate known as the Youth Caravaners, will meet with youths of St . Paul s Lutheran church in four sessions this week. The team represents a cross section of Lutheran teen-agers in the United States and Canada and will assist the Lutheran congregation here with its youth program.

angry about Chrysler’s losses for two- consecutive years, and representing some strong New York financial interests, got the information on Newberg’s outside holdings. ; ’ . ' This group took the Newberg case to Chrysler’s New York directors, seven of the 21 board members, including W. Alton Jones, chairman ot the executive committee of Cities Service Co., and Juan T. Tripp, president of Pan American World Airways. The New York directors decided the case could wind up in the courts unless the company handled the matter itself. They ordered a Chrysler board meeting June 30, just two months and two days after the board had named Newberg president of Chryslep At the June 30 meeting, Newberg was ordered to resign. Exactly three weeks later, July 21, the board met again and announced that Newberg was repaying “in excess of $450,000” from profits made in supplier firms which sold to Chrysler. Does Not Deny Story Said Newberg, “I have tried to dispose of the current differences of opinion in away that would leave my record clean, without any doubt as to my integrity,” and he insisted that counsel had told him that he had engaged in nothing illegal or improper. Said Ben Stone in his Sango Corp, office when confronted with the facts by United Press International. “I save Chrysler millions of dollars. Bill Newberg didn’t help me get one dollar’s worth of
A team of three teen-agers, called Youth Caravaners, are the guests of St Paul’s Lutheran church this week. The three Caravaners are traveling for the Walther League, international youth organization and official youth program of the Lutheran church—Missouri synod. The team is designed to assist local Lutheran congregations with their youth programs. The Caravaners assist the youth in devotional services, topic discussions, service projects, recreational and fellowship sessions. They joined the local teen-agers in reaching the unchurched youth of the community. The five-point program of the Walther League—worship, education, fellowship, service, and recreation was explained to the youth, their parents, counselors, and other adults of St. Paul’s Lutheran church. While the Caravaners are guests of St. Paul’s Lutheran church they conductd etour sessions with the youth of the church. Meetings were scheduled for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of this we*k.fe -Rgvt L. W. Schiifenburg>>: llfetor of St. Paul’s 'Lutheran Church. The Caravaners next stop will be the Trinity Lutheran church in Hammond. business with Chrysler Corp." Said another industrialist close to Newberg and Stone, “Newberg used Ben Stone’s ability and genius to provide products for Chrysler in areas where lack of competition was forcing Chrysler to pay high prices. Sure, they made money. . But they made money because Ben Stone simply had more ability and worked longer and harder than his competitors.” When contacted by UPI, Newberg did not deny the story of his outside interests, but. said he could not expand on his July 21 statement. But the Chrysler investigation is continuing and all the persons close to the Newberg case insist it won’t end with Newberg's firing.
