Estate Suit Reveals
Payment Of $4,000
To Mrs. Mclean in '39
Funds insufficient to
Garry Out Terms Of
Will, Court Told

District Court records today dis
closed that Mrs. Evalyn Lucille
, Walsh Mclean obtained $3O,100 last
year from the trust estate of her
husband, Edward B. Mclean, for
mer Washington publisher now con-
fined in a mental institution at
Towson, Md.
Instead of a net income approx
imating 100000 or more annually,
as claimed by Attorney Julius /.
Peyser, who has filed an action on
behalf of himself and all other
creditors in the proceedings, the
Mclean estate has no excess income,
the court was told. On the contrary,
there is not sufficient funds to en-
able the trustee. the American Sc
curity & Trust Co., functioning
under the will of Mr.. McLean's
father, the late John R. Mclean, to
comply with the requirements of
the will and previous court orders,
it was asserted.
Attorneys Nelson T. Harrison and
Howard Boyd, representing Mrs.
Mclean have asked the court to
strike from its files Mr.. Peyser's mo-
ton to suspend temporary mainte-
nance payments to their client.
Mrs. McLean's counsel advised
the court that Mr.. Peyser is plain
tiff in another case in District
Court that seeks to have seques-
tered all excess income produced
by the trust estate, so that pay
ment may be made to creditors.
They say Mr.. Peyser's claim is
under judgment obtained in Vir-
ginia State court in March, 1882,
but Mrs. McLean's lawyers say this
has never been reduced to judg-
ment in the District and the claim
is outlawed here since three years
have passed.
Neil Burkinshaw, ancillary COM
mittee of the person and estate of
Mr.. Mclean likewise opposes Mr..
Peyer's motions for leave to inter-
vene in the case and to suspend
maintenance payments. Mr.. Burk-
inshaw contends Mr.. Peyser is not
entitled to relief because all of the
net income of the estate of John
R. Mclean is held and payable for
the trustee under spendthrift pro-
visions of his will.
Mr.. Burkinshaw's memorandum to
the court disclosed that in 1899
the amount of income from the
estate aggregated $166,737 from
which $35,6O1 was deducted, among
other disbursements, for current
and delinquent income taxes of
Edward B. Mclean. Real estate
taxes, according to Mr.. Burkin-
shaw, aggregated $16,672.

By House Vote
Also Provides for
Washington Art Work
On CopitoI Grounds

The House yesterday approved
plans for transfer of the statue Of
John Marshall from the west ter
race of the Capitol Grounds to q
site in the vicinity of the new Su-
preme Court Building, and not long
afterward passed a bill authorizing
the erection of statue Of George
Washington In the Capitol Grounds.
The Library Committee of the
House, in recommending transfer of
the Marshall statue, said the pres
ent location "is practically un-
known-certainly to any substantial
part of those who visit Washing

committee added, that it never
comes to the attention of the great
mass of visitors. This is certainly
most unfortunate"
Approved by Clarke.
The committee report also con.
tanned q letter from Gilmore D
Clarke, chairman Of the Commits

"The commission respectfully ad

.Fur|oughing Of 31O
Will Refard j. ). H. A.
Work, Says Straus
Declares Agency Expects
No More FurIouehs
During Fiscal Year

The furloughing of $40 employees
of the United States Housing Au-
thority on February /, as an economy
measure, will substantially slow-up"
the agency's monthly schedule Of
construction, Administrator Nathan
Straus declared late yesterday.
The slum clearance and low-rent
housing program is now at its peak.
Before the economy order, which
impounded $257 900 of administra-
tive funds, it was anticipated an
average of 5000 low-rent dwelling
units would go into construction
each month. 1t is impossible to say
now to what extent this schedule
will be disarranged, Mr.. Straus ex-
planned, but he said the reduced
personnel will have decided bear
ing on it.
The official figures on furloughs
in both the U. S. H. A. and the
Public Works Administration, as
announced yesterday, were slightly
under the estimates made by ofncials
on Saturday. The number of P. w. A
employees receiving furlough notices
with their pay checks yesterday &C.
counted for exactly 1,070. Included
were 1872 in the Washington office
and 638 in the field. From a peak
of 10.400 employees, the P. w. A
staff will have been reduced to 4,5a3
on February /.
No More FurlouEhS Expected.
Mr.. Straus said no more fur.
loughs are anticipated in the Hous-
ing Authority during the remain.
der of the current fiscal year. There
were 1899 employees on the Wash.
ington rolls on anuary Is and 10;
in the field. Taking into account
the scheduled furloughs the staff
will be reduced to 989 in Wash.
ington and SO in the field. Only II
field employees are being furloughec
on February /.
Preference will be given to fur.
loughed employees in making up the
1941 pay roll, the administrator
said. The new budget will allow
for few more employees than wert
on the 1910 rolls.
He said the Budget Bureau hac

Unlike the P. w. A., whose huge
construction program is rapidly
nearing completion, the economy GU
hit the Housing Authority at tims
when work was expanding. For thi'
reason, it was said. a comparatively
small amount of its administrative
funds had been impounded in com
parison with some other agencies.
The 1910 appropriation bill, how
ever, had reduced the housing funt
