maintained, was more easily attain

Justice Lehman Decides Sulzberger
Litigation.

The litigation between Karl Full
ton Sulzberger, youngest of the nine
children of the late Ferdinand Sulz-
berger, head of Sulzberger & Sons,
packing concern, and the trustees
under his fathers will, for the i'm
mediate payment to him of a ninth
share in $1,350,00O, has resulted in
a decision by Supreme Court JUS
tice Lehman of New York, directing
that the money be turned over.
The suit in behalf of the son was
brought through his mother, as
guardian, on the ground that stock
in the packing company which his
father put in trust for the members
of his family nearly two years be-
fore he died, had been sold, and that
under the terms of the trust deed
the money was payable now. The:
trustees admitted the sons right to
$150,O00, but contended that the law
did not permit them to pay the
money until his mother as his guar
dian gave proper bond to protect
them. Mrs. Sulzberger replied that
under the terms of her husbands
will she was required to give no
bond.
Justice Lehman decided that tes-
tator had right to exempt tesla
mentary guardians under his will
from giving any security.
