HAD TAKEN NO STEPS

Justice Delehanty in the Supreme
Court yesterday signed an order re-
!ytraining George ]. Gould from prose-
cruirg in the Surrogates Court claim
of Ni44,904. which he alleges is his share
of i,some from the estate of his father,
Jay Gould. which the trustees have inn
poundeN and withheld from him since
Decembs2'. 1920. The order conforms
with the iA,junction which Justice Dele
hanty grarStsd last month on the ground
that proceedings in the Surrogate's
Court would be n needless duplication
of an accounting .ction pending in the
Supreme Court
Accompanying fine Papers was an af-
fidavit presented by William, A. w.
Stewart. guardian Sor Gloria Gould and
other minors in the family whose legal
interests are concerned, who condemns
Mr.. Gould's trusteesh,p and demands
reimbursement to the estate of personal
profits made ont of the fu-.ds of the
estate.

has been a difficult one. but when !
George j. Gould's own testimony had |
proved that he had operated in Wall |
Street through this same account for
himself and for the estate and used
funds in very large amounts as mar
gins for his own transactions and had |
himself destroyed his own books of ac- |
count, that he had taken for himself a |
commission OF $620,401 upon the sale OF |
Western Union stock and that he had |
constantly subscribed with estate funds |
to underwritings in which he had per-
sonal interest, and made large profits |
for himself out of estate transactions,
felt l could conscientiously take only |
the position I have taken, namely, that |
George J. Gould Is not a proper person |
to continue to act as trustee and that |
he should account for and reimburse to |
the Jay Gould estate the amount of
such profits he may have improperly |
made with the use of estate funds, or In
connection with estate transactions, and
also together with his co-trustees make |
good to the estate the loss ii has suffered |
through the improper investments made
by the trustees"

TEACHERS ADVISORY
COUNCIL NOT DISCUSSED
Resolutions of Praise Read at
Meeting.

Contrary to expectations, no part Of
the proceedings of the June meeting of
the Teachers Council. held yesterday
in the Board of Education Building,
dealt directly with the criticism that
has been directed at the Council be-
cause of it's relations with the Advi-
sorry Council on Teachers Qualifica-
tions. The only reference to the Ad-
visory Council was in two resolutions
received from the Brooklyn Teachers
Association and the Interborough AS
sociation of Women Teachers, praising
the Council for its part in selecting the
personnel of the Advisory Council.
1t developed during the reading of
the minutes that a committee had con-
ferred with President George J. Ryan
of the Board of Education on the ques-
tion of reorganizing the Council. Mr..
Ryan had previously announced he
would consider such a reorganization.
following attacks on the Council by the
Teachers Union and the Teachers In
terest Association, which charged that
the Council is not a democratic body
and has led to withdrawal of several
organizations. It is believed the
Teachers Council has been asked in
formally to submit suggestions for re-
organization.
