Sewell Lee Avery,
Legendary Financier,
Is Dead At 86
CHICAGO, (ff> — Sewell Lee
Avery, 86, a strong - willed big
businessman who ultimately took
on the U.S. Army, died Monday.
Avery, who was Montgomery
Ward & Co. chairman from 1931
to 1955, died in his apartment of
a cerebral hemorrhage. He had
been ill a year.
In financial circles, Avery was
a legend.
Brilliant and tough, he was al
most phenomenally successful
from the day in 1894 when he
graduated from University of
Michigan Law School.
As Montgomery Ward's chief
executive he fought spectacular
battles against the federal gov
ernment in 1944 and financier
Louis E. Wolfson in 1955.
In 1944, Avery defied the War
Labor Board’s intervention in a
Montgomery Ward dispute with a
CIO union.
When on April 26, 1944, govern
ment officials, backed by troops,
occupied Ward property in Chi
cago, Avery sat defiantly in his
office.
The next day two soldiers en
tered his office, picked him up
and deposited him in the street
outside.
