Ry the Associated Press.
KAUFMAN, Tex, August 10-Mrs
Mabel H. Green. widow Of Col. Ed
ward H. r. Green, railroad magnate,
was named permanent administratrix
Of this vast estate, estimated at $780,
900, in brief hearing here today
County Judge Ben Brooks, Texas
youngest jurist, made permanent the
appointment of Mrs. Green, temporar-
lily named after application for let
ters of administration were filed
July %.
Judge Brooks set her bond at s5O,-
600, which he described as an "ap-
propriate bond for the Texas hold
ings of the estate at this particular
time" He stressed, however, that
the amount of the bond would be
increased as the value of the entire
estate Is learned.
Appraisal Board Named.
A three-man appraisal board, COM
posed of w. P. Allen, Edwin Brim and
T. B. Griffith, all of Terrell, Tex,
was named by the court to complete
an inventory and appraisal of the
entire Green estate within 60 days.
The court reserved the right to extend
the period of time if complete ap-
praisal had not been accomplished at
that time.
Mrs. Green's appointment was not
contested. Attorneys for Mrs. Mat
thew Astor Wilks of New York, sister
of Col. Green. was reported as pos
sible contestants.
A will Col. Green made in 1908,
naming his sister sole heir to his for
tune. was filed in Port Henry, N. Y,
recently. The document made no pro-
vision for his widow, whom he gave
$500,000 in cash and S125,000 in
Liberty bonds as wedding gift in
1917.
C. NJ. Crumbaugh. Mrs. Green's at
torney, called w. P. Allen of Terrell,
longtime friend of Green. to the wit
ness stand as his sole witness.
Allen said Col. Green, son of the
late Hetty Green, woman financier,
came to Terrell in 'either 1892 or
1888" Allen, president of the Amer
1can National Bank at Terrell, said he
attended Col. Green's funeral at Round
Hill. Mass, in June.
The Terrell banker testified Col.
Green maintained domicile at Terrell
and paid his poll tax there until he was
so years of age.
Testimony on Residence.
Wherever he was, Col. Green always
came to Terrell to vote IN presidential
elections" the banker said. $50 far
as I know, he never abandoned his
domicile at Terrell"
This fact, established through Allen S
testimony, was expected to play a
major part in any possible future con-
troversy over disposition of the estate.
Under Texas laws, Mrs. Green is en-
titled to all personal property accrued
by her husband subsequent to their
marriage.
Crumbaugh. in recommending a
$50,000 bond to the court, said mo-
body knows what the assets of the
Green estate are at this particular
time" 1t has been variously estimated
from $50,000,000 to $80,000,000.

CROP REPORT DUE
TO GUIDE RELIEF
Expert Analysis on Drought
Area Conditions to Be
Issued Today.
Ey the Associated Press.

Anxious farmers and commodity
traders looked toward the Capital
today for one of the most momentous
crop reports in history.
In this expert analysis Of conditions
in the agricultural areas, which will
reflect the havoc wrought by the
drought. Federal officials expected to
find a guide to relief demands on the
Government.
The report of indicated crop pro-
duction, based on conditions as Of
August l, and prepared with the
greatest secrecy, was scheduled to be
made public at pm.
Secretary Wallace, who is now pre-
pairing a general drought report, told
newsmen the official crop estimates
will furnish an accurate yardstick on
what help will be needed by thousands
of farmers.
He said that until the estimates
were available-especially on corn
the national drought needs for carry
ing farmers and live stock through
the Winter could not be determined.
Corn Crop Estimate.
During the last month the drought
has dealt its hardest blows to much
of the corn belt. On July Govern
ment experts estimated a corn crop
of 2,244,834 900 bushels, a little less
than the crop last year and the aver
age yield between 1928 and 1882.
It is known that soaring tempera-
lures and lack of moisture will cut
down the corn forecast, but the exact
figure will guide many farmers who
have cattle, hogs and sheep which
ordinarily would be fed for marketing
or carried through the Winter.
Wallace said that if the crop was
below 2,00O,OO0,0OO bushels, imports
of corn probably would be larger than
last year, when almost 35,000,000

American Embassy officials alarmed
by what they described as an in
creasingly threatening situation al
tended by much shooting, have urged
all Americans IN Madrid to leave the
Spanish capital.
Eric c. Wendelin. American Charge
d'Affaires, notified the State Depart
ment to this effect in message filed
at o'clock last night, Spanish time.
He said he had urged American
citizens to leave Madrid on the night
train tonight so as to take advantage
of what he thought might be the last
opportunity for them to be evacuated
aboard the cruiser Quincy.
Capture of the town and province
of Santander, on the Bay of Biscay,
was announced by Spanish rebel
radio station today as word filtered
through that other far northern COM
munities faced shortage of both food
and water.
LOyalists Fight DOggedly.

both shell and rifle fire as the rebels
fought for access to the northern sea-
board, which would assure them more
arms and ammunition, the northern
loyalist-held communities of San Sc
bastian, Renteria and Irun were re-
ported to be fighting doggedly for their
existence.
Wendelin said that as a result of
his warning some Is or 20 of the
approximately 200 Americans still in
Madrid had signified their intention
OF going to Valencia tonight.
Wendelin said he was in touch with
che Quincy, which had notified him
1t would return to Valencia tomor-
row morning to pick up any refugees
from Madrid. The Navy Department
said the Quincy arrived last night
at Palma in the Balearic Islands.
Wendelin did not explain his rea-
sons for believing the next trip of
the Quincy to Valencia might be
the last opportunity for Americans
to be evacuated by the cruiser. At
the State Department it was said
there were no immediate plans to
withdraw the Quincy from Spanish
waters.

adjourned to meet later at the inSti-
tute for the demonstration of the
heart invented by Lindbergh and Dr.
Carrel.
The mechanical heart was to be
presented to the institute after the
demonstration in recognition of the
facilities it extended in preparation
for the experiment.
Col. Lindbergh completed final ar
rangements for the demonstration and
moved from the home of Capt An
dreas Dam, his host. to the hotel in
which Dr. Carrel is staying.
The two discussed final details, but
declined to disclose in advance any
possible new scientific secrets which
their later researches may have pro-
duced.

answered DR.. Carrel to inquiries re-
garding the heart apparatus.

ton were guests of the Danish tourist
organization at a supper last night,

AMENDMENT
NEEDED

A large number of New Deal
measures were held unconstitu-
tional last year, and more are
slated to go this year. The Ma
tional Labor Relations Act is al
most certain to be killed, and the
Social Security Act may suffer a
similar fate.
These nine old men, whose
average age is II years, are re-
sponsible to no one. Six of them
are eligible for retirement today,
but every one of them refuses to
bulge.
Some way must be found to
strip the Supreme Court of it's
enormous and arbitrary power, so
that progress in peacefully solving
our problems may be made. The
Farmers and Workers Rights
Amendment to the Constitution,
giving Congress the power to le-
gislate on social and economic
problems, is the best means yet
suggested.

Oh GIScCeu representatives.
STATES
rights"
The refusal of the court to- per-
mt congress to leglslate on econ
omlc ana social problems IS bad
enough. AS IN the case OF the
Mia and the GuItey Coal Act,
the court can hold the legislation
invalid on the ground that these
matters are reserved to the states.
AS a practical matter, as the
Justices we'll know, the states can
NOT legislate effectively on most
presenC-day economic problems,
Tor the problems are national in
scope. Any state that raised its
standards too high above the level
OF it's competitors, moreover, might
see It's manufacturers moving
away. For this reason the Supreme
Court, when it talks Of legislation
by the states, is really preventing
any legislation at all.
In the New York minimum
wage case, however, a state had
finally acted. The Supreme Court
then held the legislation uncOnst-
tutiOnal as well, on the ground
that the constitutional clause
guaranteeing due process of law
had been violated. That clause is
so vague that it merely permits
the justice to nuIlify any measure
that they dislike.

7 HE W ORLD
IN REVIEW
By JOEL SEIDMAN
Labor Economist and Educator
Instructor at BrOOkwOOd
Labor College

The refusal of the United States
Supreme Court to grant a rehear-
ing of the case in which it held
the New York minimum wage law
unconstitutional is just another in
a long series of reactionary deci-
siOns. The decision in the New
York case, which was handed
down in a 5-to-4 vote, affected
similar laws in a great many
other states.
Every workers should realize
that it is economic prejudice, and
not a prohibition to be found IN
the Constitution itself, that is res
ponsible for these decisions. When
the Constitution was adopted this
was a primitive agricultural COM
munity, and minimum wages had
not yet been thought Of.
Inc fact that rne court could
split five votes to four on this
question, as on many others, is
proof that it is the social point
OF view of justice that deter
mines his decision on the consti-
tutlonallty or labor legislation.
What we have done is to allow the
J prejudices Of the Supreme Court
TO be substituted for the opinion
OF elected representatives.
