SEXTON (UNDERTAKER) 18 BEING CONTINUED AT 284 SEVENTH BROOKLIN John Muir Dies At 87; Founder of Investment Firm Well-Known Figure in the Financial World and Once Lived Here John Muir, 87, for more than 40 years one of the best-known figures in the financial section of Manhattan and founder of the investment security house of John Muir at 39 Broadway, Manhattan, died at 5 a.m.

today at his home, 4441 147th Flushing. Mr. Muir was generally credited with having originated the small denomination payment plan for securities which was adopted by the United States Government in conjunction with the Liberty Loans during the World War. He was prominent in the large flotations of Liberty Loans. Muir also was known for having popularized the so-called "baby bonds." Through these bonds thousands of small investors were enabled to purchase bond investments in great enterprises.

Formerly Lived Here Mr. Muir, who formerly lived in the Park Slope section, had a wide circle of friends here. He was born in Scarboro, near Toronto, June 10, 1847, a son of Alexander and Adah Bell Muir. After working for a manufacturing firm in Hamilton, he went to Chicago and became associated with the Kansas Pacific Railway. Later he became traffic manager of the Oregon and Washington of the Northern Pacific Railroad.

Mr. Muir began his career in the investment field in this city in 1898, when he founded his firm, doing a Stock Exchange business. Later, feeling that he could better serve small investors, conceived the idea of selling in odd lots, and his firm became noted as specialists in this field. During the early part of the World War he consulted with Reginald McKenna, then British Chancellor of the Exchequer and other European financiers, urging the floating of a loan in the United States with small denomination bonds included. Many American bankers opposed the idea, but Mr.

Muir's suggestions were adopted when the United States entered the war. Handled Baby Bonds in War He was drafted into the service of the Government as chairman of the Baby Bond Committee of the Liberty Loan Organization of the Second Federal Reserve District. He was the of "The Birth of American which was published and distributed by resolution of Congress and a number of similar works. He is survived by eight children, George, John Edwin H. Muir, Mrs.

23 (P)--A demand for "full and open" debate on the Townsend old-age pension plan came today from Senator Borah as Congressional committees pushed ahead with hearings on the Administration's social security program. Without indorsing the Townsend plan, Borah said in a statement that its widespread support entitled it to open consideration rather than being pigeonholed. The Idaho Republican is a critic aid proposed by Roosevelt" Administration for the aged needy. He has called for liberalization of the measure. Besides Borah, some other Senate Republicans were preparing to open fire on the Roosevelt plan.

Senator Hastings Del.) took a lead in the move with a statement today suggesting the Wagner -Lewis bill as now drafted might "fool" the country. He said that while the Administration estimates there are 3,750,000 needy aged and to contribute $15 a proposes, their support, the bill carries only 000.000. a 694,444 This, of he the said, would care for only aged, or if divided among the 3,750,000, would provide each $33.33 a year. Senator Wagner N. author conceded of the pending bill, readily $125,000,000 would not meet the situation.

He said the Government would increase its tion as the States put up funds to appropriamatch. Members the House Ways and Means Committee said that Attorney General Cummings' opinion on the constitutionality of various details of the Roosevelt plan would be asked in a move to have the measure passed in such form that it will withstand any court challenge. of song and story, his automobile here keeper of the Fire daily trip to Ocean children from school. today and before tide had swept over sweeping him out to bring the car to William Flynn, 88, War Veteran, Dies Special to The Eagle Glen Cove, L.
