HEAD Of PROBATE
JUDGES Of STATE
Organization Formed at Meet
ing Here Early Thursday
Afternoon-PubIic SerV-
ice Purpose

Formation of a committee of pro-
bate judges to confer with the mem
bers OF the code revision committee
of the legislature in efforts to clarity
laws regarding work of the judges
was authorized by resolution
adopted at the organization meeting
of the Probate Judges association of
Alabama at the Tutwiler hotel at
o'clock Thursday afternoon. Officers
of the association, which began it's
existence with a membership of AZ
probate judges of the state, are
Judge Fred Winkler of Butler
county, president; Judge l.. p.
Troup of Morgan county, vice pres
ident, and Judge D. w. Grassland of
Montgomery county, secretary and
treasurer.
The committee to confer with the
code committee will consist of Judge
Winkler as ex officio member and a
member from each of the 10 congress
sional districts to be appointed by
to the resolution this committee will
take up with the code committee
changes in state laws relating to pro-
bate courts for the benefit of the
public generally and to make certain
some parts of the law that are now
not clear.
According to Judge James P. Stiles
of the Jefferson county probate
court. there are numerous sections of
the laws relating to the probate
courts that are conflicting or nullify
each other. Judge Stiles cited the
statute relating to the setting aside
of homestead and certain personal
exemption for the widow and chill
dren of an intestate. Under the code,
certain property is set aside for their
support and maintenance, but the
same law provides that the property
cannot be sold until the death of the
widow and the coming of age OF the
youngest child except on order of a
chancery court for reinvestment. The
law by this last provision defeats its
purpose, Judge stiles declared.
Pledge to support Governor.
The body also passed a resolution
pledging the probate judges of the
state to aid the governor in every
way they could in an economic adj
ministration Ct the affairs of the
state. A number of speeches were
made at the meeting, in which 1t was
declared that the purpose Of the or
ganization was to benefit the pro-
bate practice and proceedings of Ala

The first annual meeting of the
