INTERESTING POINT
IN RECENT CASE

In a case recently decided in the
Court of Chancery. Chancellor Curtis,
in defining the duties of trustee. ap-
pointed to succeed former trustees,
ruled on a point of general public in
terest and Importance. The matter
came before the Chancellor on a pc
.ition by a trustee appointed to sue
seed two persons named as trustees
In a will One of the trustees
named in the will died and the surviv
Ing trustee desired to resign as trus-
tee, and as such surviving trustee pre-
sented a petition to the Chancellor,
praying that he be allowed to resign
and that a new trustee be appointed
Inasmuch as a statute of the State OF
Delaware vested in the new trustee all
the trust estate and property. the
Chancellor ordered the new trustee to
take and receive all the trust securi-
ties and to take such proceeding as
was necessary to protect the trust es-
tate. After qualifying, the new trus-
tee presented a petition alleging that
losses had arisen by reason of i'm
proper investments of the trust estate,
and asked that the surviving trustee
and the estate of the deceased trustee
be surcharged with the losses
Upon presentation of the petition
by the new trustee. the Chancellor
ordered a rule issued requiring the
former surviving trustee and the ad-
minlstrator of the deceased former
trustee to appear and show cause why
hey should not be surcharged with
he losses.
The former surviving trustee anu
the administrator of the deceased for
mer trustee appeared by solicitor and
filed answers. which raised question
as to whether the proceeding should
not be by bill and the beneficiary for
life and the beneficiaries in remainder
made parties thereto.
The Chancellor decided that the
beneficiaries for life and in remainder
were not necessary parties, inasmuch
as the trustee represents their inter
ests. He also decided that though
a successor in a trust - not account
able or liable for the defaults or mis-
conduct of his predecessor, yet he
must obtain all the property that be-
longs to the trust, and for this pur-
pose should investigate the acts anC
conduct of his predecessor and re-
cover from him whatever belongs tC
the trust estate.

zen now he asserted and revenues

even now he asserted and revenues
from tariff duties have fallen off.
There must be a recognition of
the tremendous change which war
has wrought in Europe" he said.
"We are now as unprepared for the
coming of peace as we are unpre-
pared for war"
A scientific tariff for revenue and
protection the speaker pointed out as
the best means of completing such
preparation.
In order tc carry out such prepa-
ration, Mr.. Herrick declared, the peo-
pie themselves should assert their
will.
Representative government" he
said, "is efficient and honest only as
the great mass Of voters make it so
by patriotic, intelligent attention to
public affairs and by careful selection
of officials to carry out the policies
decided on by the people"
In concluding he made an earnest
plea to the voters of Ohio to return
Frank B. willis to the state house in
order that he might have an oppor-
tlnity to complete the work he has
begun.
The text of Mr.. Herrick's address
in part was as follows:
The issue in this election year is
not primarily a question of whether
Republicans or Democrats shall be in
power 1t is a question of giving the
United States the best possible gov
ernmen: at one of the two or three
most critical periods in it's history.
Europe is in a turmoil of war, which

policy on which the economic welfare
of the United States depends for
