aIM PLANT EXECUTOR FEES TOD MUCH

As a second reason of appeal It is claimed that during the administration period, from Nov. 4, 1918, to June l, 1921, the United States Trust Co. had an average daily balance of about $1,069,- 62O of the funds of the estate which the Trust Co., used in it's general business, but the Trust Co. gives no accounting for the use of said funds.
 It is claimed that the probate court erred ill making a separate award for the executrix and the executors, where as it should have fixed an amount to be paid executors and executrix jointly without apportioning the same. Mrs. Hayward, the executrix receives less than the executors whereas there should he a joint award and all should snare equally.
 That all the fees allowed by the pro- hate court are exorbitant is a further ground of appeal
 The probate court erred also, it is claimed in basing the executors ices upon commission or percentage upon the gross estate, whereas they should be based upon the reasonable value or services rendered.
 A further ground of appeal is stated in the claim that the to<al payments made to F de Sullivan by the eI- ecutors on account of executors ices as set forth in a certain schedule and allowed by the court are eXorbitant' without authority of the court and far in excess of a proper share or proDor- tion for his services.
 Finally, it is claimed that the amount allowed to Judge Arthur P. Anderson as probate fees exceeds the statutory fee to which he is entitled.
 It has been understood that the probate fees to Judge Anderson from the estate were between $8,OO0 and $9,000.

ACCIDENTS IN CONNECTICUT
 KILL MORE THAN WAR


 More lives were lost in ConnectiVut
 accidents during the nineteen u1A1ths
 -.at Ihe united States participated in
 the World War than the total of Connect
 illt soldiers who were killed in action
 .r otherwise met their deaths in the
 service. This Iact was established by
 statistics of the motor vehicle and health
 leparlmanls compiled in connection with
 the effort being made throughout the
 state this week to check the increase in
 accidents.
 The United States was in the war from April t. 1917 to November Il, 1918. During that time 50,150 American sol li-rs met their deaths. In the same per iod 1Z6.gOU men, women and children
 were killed in accidents. While there were 200,Q00 soldiers injured in battle over 40Uu,0G0 people were injured in accidents .n this country.
 Of the Connecticut men in the service 1.25J died. h the same period 2,O5s people in the peaceful Connecticut were sicu-ms oI fatal accidents in this state 1 Motor vehicles were responsible for 3S; 1 0- these deaths
 i h the United States in 1919, there were approximately S0,000 persons ac ciLeutally killed. Of this number, only ---yu1 were killed in industry. The re maiudl-, 58.00o, were killed on tn
 streets and in the homes. Over 10,60 l persons were killed as the result c automobile accidents. This is the larges number that can be attributed to an. one cause.
 While in the industries on the rail roads and electric railways, and in tn mines, through organized safety, tn hazards are coming under control an accidental deaths are being reduced, tn fatalities from automobile accidents ar mounting by leaps and bounds.
