the North Carolina tobacco magnate.
Tall, slender and blond, Miss Duke
is one of the least publicized of
American heiressess and her ret
icence has led to fantastic reports
of her wealth. But the late James
B. Duke, a devout Methodist, be-
queathed two-thirds of his vast
estate to charitable endowment
to which he had previously given
$80,000,0OO, leaving one third to his
daughter.
Miss Duke, however, does not re-
ceive the entire one-third today.
She gets only one third of her share.
1t may amount to as much as &c.,
100000 after taxes have been de-
Quoted. She will get another third
at the age of Is and the remainder
when she is 30.
She chose to return to her child
hood home here to celebrate her
coming of age. There will be a
party, but it will be without pomp.
AS for acquisition of the money, the
evidence of change will be some
routine bookkeeping transactions
transferring funds from the estate
to her personal account.
Her hobbies are riding - she

Silence from the little White

indicate either that the President
desired to take no notice of the

available for comment.
At the treasury department quiet
confidence in the Presidents plan
was displayed, although officials
there sensed Immediately that re-

would send rumblings through Wall

political groups.
The new acting secretary Of the
