OMAHA, Neh., Aug. 27-Iowa and
Nebraska farmers frightened picket
lines on highways leading to the
Omaha and Council Bluffs market

to increase commodity prices.
The strikers concentrated their
strike on milk trucks to cause a
serious shortage of milk and cream.
One of the largest diaries here was
forced to ship it's products by rail
from Dubuque, $50 miles away.
All trucks attempting to reach
Council Bluffs, Ia, across the Mis-
souri, river from here, had been
stopped. The city was cut off from
its sources of livestock, produce and
dairy products.
Steps we're being taken to isolate
Omaha from the rural sections.

WAVES RICHES
LEFT HIM BY
SOCIAL QUEEN
Mrs. McCormiCk'S Business
Adviser Gets Huge Slice
of Estate.
ACCEPTS LIFE INCOME
Edwin Krenn RenounceS His
Claims in Favor of
Fellow Trustee.
By United Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-The Chicago
Tribune said today that under pro-
visions of Mrs. Edith Rockefeller
McCormick's last will, approximately
f1ve-twelfths of her estate would be
left to her friend and business adj
wiser, Edwin Krenn, Swiss architect,
who accompanied her here from
abroad.
The Tribune, owned largely by
members of the Mccormick family.
said the will, not yet filed provides
that four-twelfths of the estate 90
to Mrs. Elisha Dyer Hubbard, a
daughter; two twelfths to Mrs. Oser,
another daughter; and the remain
ing one-twelfth to Mrs. .McCorrnicks
son, Fowler, who was married last
year to Mrs. Anne (FffD Stillman.
But, said the Tribune, mfr. Krenn
has elected to waive his share of the
estate, it was learned"
An announcement to this effect
was made Friday night by Edward
Dato, Krenn's partner in the real
estate firm of Krenn and Dato.
Dato said Krenn had renowned
all claims to the estate and the firm
in lieu of $4,000 monthly income
for life, guaranteed to him by Dato.
Under this agreement, the news
paper pointed out, the f1ve-twelfths
OF the estate left to Krenn will come
under Datos control and gives him
control for the present of the estate
as well as of the real estate firm
and the Edith Rockefeller Nc
Cormick trust, of which he, Krenn
and Mrs. Mccormick were trustees.
Asked Friday night why Krenn
had withdrawn, Dato said hesitatine-
ly that it was a delicate matter"
to discuss.
You see,' he said, Mr.. Krenn
was not friendly with the Rockefeller
or the Harold F. Mccormick
families. AS an heir to her estate
and a trustee of the trust he would
be constantly thrown in with the
relatives. His elimination would
make matters much easier"
Dato went to school with Krenn
in Zurich, Switzerland, and was a
clerk for the International Harvester
Company, before he and Krenn
ventured into the real estate bust
ness.
