ALIEN PROPERTY
POLICY APPROVED
Coolidge Instructs Miller to
Continue Activities as
at Present.

Alien Property Custodian Miller was
directed by President Coolidge today
to continue the policy instituted un-
der President Harding of liquidating
alien property assets embraced in
trusts valued at $4,000 and over.
Trusts with less value are gradual
ly being returned to former enemy
aliens under the Winslow act passed
by the last Congress.
Liquidation of the larger trusts is
being carried out wherever it will
result advantageously to the govern
ment and to the trusts involved. and
this course was approved by Mr.. Cool
idge today during a conference with
Mr.. Miller.
Mr.. Miller told the President that
approximately 100000, 900 OF assets
would be held by the government
after the claims allowed under the
WinSlow bill were disposed of, and
this sum will be held as an offset
until the claims of American citizens
against Germany are adjudicated ~
the Mixed Claims Commission and
paid.
The custodian said his office had
deemed 1t much safer and better to
have the remaining assets as cash in
the Treasury. rather then scattered
broadcast from the Philippines to
New England in various businesses,
real estate and bank accounts. OF
the total amount of alien property,
approximately s1S0,000, 900. Mr.. Miller
said, IS represented in the Treasury
by cash drawing interest at Az per
cent.
