Wife's Executor Attacks
Deed to Hanan Property
Manufacturer Under S'Undue
Influence" When Transfer
Was Made. He Charges

Another chapter in the extensive
litigation over the estate of John n.
Hanan, shoe manufacturer, in an action
filed in the Supreme Court yesterday,
contains the allegation that Mr.. Hanan
was under undue influence when he
transferred to Herbert w. Hanan and
Addison G. Hanan, now executors of
his estate, the property at 1918 Fifth
Avenue.
The plaintiff, Francis j. Mccain, as
trustee and executor of the estate Of
Mrs. Edith Evelyn Hanan, asks that
the conveyance be set aside. Mr.. NC
Cam alleges that MIR. Hanan decided
the property to the defendant on Janu-
ary 20, 1920, when he was seventy
three years old, in an enfecbled con
dition, "and addicted to the use of
stimulants and drugs, which deprived
him OF the customary mental powers
of q normal person, and thus rendered
susceptible and liable to undue infiu-
ence and deception"
The property in dispute is valued at
$250,000 and is subject to mortgage
of $160.000, Mr.. McCann, in his action,
also demands an accounting for all re-
c,eipts from the property since the
death of Mr.. Hanan.

Harding Calls
For Ship Bill
Again To-day
Continued from pas. one,

the bill as it comes up FOR debate. No
accurate forecast can be made at this
time on the nature OF other amend
ments which arc being prepared by
individual representatives. 1t is known,
however, that changes will be offered
to practically every important section
of the bill. This does not mean that
the measure is TO be torn to pieces.
but that numerous alternative sections,
each with the support of at least one
member, will be suggested. The rule
to be adopted by the House will pro-
vide for n final vote on November 20
Home Ports Defined
One of the amendments agreed upon
by the Republican members Of the
Merchant Marine Committee to-day
designated in the subsidy bill. This
declares that the Secretary of Com
mercc shall name such ports Of entry
as the places where the greater part
of the shipping business of the owner
Is transacted As exceptions to the
rule, the Secretary may specify the
home ports in cases where this is not
applicable. such as vessels owned by
the government, vessels not engaged
in trade. and where there is no port
Of Recommendation in the same customs
district. The chief purpose of this
change is that all documents relating
TO a vessel may be located at one place.
The section giving the Shipping
Board authority over the coastwise
steamship lines is designed to bring
an end to the rate war which has been
waged in the intercoastal trade Tor six
months. 1t is approved by the Ship
ping Board, the private lines and the
railroads. This section reads as fol-
lows:
"Every such carrier shall file with
the board and keep open to public IN
spection, In the form and manner ana
within the time prescribed by the
board, the rates, fares and charges Tor
or in connection with transportation
between points on its own route; and
IL a through route has been estab-
lished. the rates, fares and charges
for or in connection with transporta'
tion between points on it's own route
and points on the route of any other
carrier by water.
Board May Fix Rates
"No such carrier shall demand,
charge or collect greater or less
compensation for such transportation
than the rates, fares and charges filed
in compliance with this section, ex-
cept with the approval Of the board
and after fifteen days public notice in
cases Of increases, in the form and
manner prescribed by the board,
stating the increases or reductions
proposed to be made; but the board
for good cause shown may waive such
notice.
Whenever the board finds that any
rate, fare, charge. classification, tariff,
regulation or practice demanded,
charged, collected or observed by such
carrier is unjust or unreasonable. it
