Julian Estate
Ruling Asked
In MARYLAND

Maryland's Attorney General
Hall Hammond has been asked to
rule whether the state has juris-
diction over the estate of William
A. Julian, late Treasurer of the
United States.
The request was made by Walter
C. Clarke, Montgomery County
Register of Wills. Mr.. Clarke said
that although Mr.. Julian lived
near here, he maintained a voting
residence in Ohio.
At issue, it was explained, are
inheritance taxes on the estate
which has been estimated unofficial
ly at between $2,000,000 and $11,-
100000. An inventory was not filed
when the will was probated last
week in the Hamilton County,
Ohio, probate court.
In Cincinnati, Probate Judge
Chase M. Davies ruled invalid a
codacil to the will leaving one
fourth of a trust fund to the
Seventh Day Adventist Church be-
cause Mr.. Julian had no witness
present when he signed it.
One of Mr.. Julian's attorneys
said the original will provided an
annual income of $4,000 for Mrs.
Julian, upon whose death the in
come is to be divided between two
of Mr.. Julian's brothers.
Attorney General Hammond's
Office said this week it has received
the request and will probably need
a few weeks to examine the points
at issue and make a ruling.
