Justice Picks Burkinshaw
For Mclean Case

Justice Bolitha j. Laws in Dis
trict Court yesterday named Neil
Burkinshaw, prominent local at
torney, as temporary ancillary COM
mittee in conjunction with the af-
fairs of Edward B. Mclean, former
Washington publisher, now in a
Towson (Md0 hospital mentally i'll.
Mr.. Burkinshaw's appointment
follows the recent death of Rear
Admiral Mark L. Bristol, U. S. NJ,
retired, who served for about five
years as ancillary committee. At
torney George B. Fraser, who served
Mr.. Mclean in legal capacity for
many years, now has an appeal
pending in the United States Court
of Appeals in which he is insisting
that he is still counsel for the for
mer publisher. Justice Laws has
said he is not.
The appellate court has placed
Mr.. Fraser's case on the calendar
for consideration next month and
as Admiral Bristol was named a
party in that proceeding it was
necessary to have some one legally
substituted to act for him. Ac-
cordingly, Justice Laws picked Mr..
Burkinshaw, who for many years
represented Admiral Bristol as his
lawyer and is familiar with the Nc
Lean case.
John R. Mclean, II-popularly
known as "Jock"-who is the eldest
child of the former publisher, has
asked District Court to appoint him
domicilary committee for the estate
of his father. Some time ago, Dis
trict Court appointed Austin F..
Garfield as guardian at law for the
Mclean estate here.

Allen Arranges
Affairs 10 Return
To District Post
Bocks Roosevelt Ideus
On Reorganization;
Confirmation Forecast

George E. Allen. whom the Presi-
dent has drafted as Commissioner
to succeed himself. was busy today
arranging his private affairs so as
to 60 back to his old desk in the
District Building as soon as he is
confirmed by the Senate.
Mr.. Allen, after talking to the
White House over long distance
telephone from New York City yes
terday, hurried back to Washington,
arriving late last night. He said
this morning that he is in entire
accord with the Presidents ideas for
reorganization in the District gov
ernment and is hopeful the task of
"streamlining" will be accomplished
successfully with view toward pro-
noting efficiency and economy.
MIR. Allen said that he thought
when he left the District Building
last September to become vice presi-
dent of the Home Insurance Co. he
was through with public life. He
said he was very happy in his new
work, but when the big boss" as
he a1ectionately referred to the
President, summoned him he could
not refuse. Mr.. Allen was highly
pleased with the many kilograms
and telephone calls of congratula-
tions he has received from his old
friends in Washington. He said he
felt highly complimented by the
Presidents desire to have him again
as Commissioner.
1t is possible that Mr.. Allen will
be compelled to make one or two
trips to his Office in New York be-
fore he winds up his business affairs.
Senate confirmation of the ap-
pointment of former Commissioner
Allen was forecast by the comments
Of several members of the District
Committee.
Senator King, Democrat, of Utah,
chairman, said Mr.. Allen knows the
city's needs, is familiar with the
municipal setup and can be of great
service.
Senator Capper of Kansas, ranking
Republican on the committee, also
expressed approval of the appoint
ment. He said Mr. Allen made a
good Commissioner during his pre-
vious service.
Favorable comment likewise was
made by Senator Tydings, Democrat,
of Maryland.
When Mr.. Allen again takes over
the job of Commissioner he will i'm
mediately appoint Samuel McIlwain
his private secretary. Mr.. McIlwain
served in this capacity before and
went with Mr.. Allen to his new
position.
1t is thought likely that Mr.. Allen
will have a long conference with
the President before he is sworn in
as Commissioner. He had no idea
today just how long he would serve,
but was inclined to believe he could
finish the task within IL months.

For every dollar paid to policyholder in losses,
taxes paid amounted 31289 g. For every dollar paid
