Jane Kane, who presented n claim
for n widow's dower right ngninH the
estate of the late James M. Munyon,
1 patent medicine manufacturer, iillegiug
that she was his wife, is to receive otic
nlxth of the estate under the agree
ment of settlement of her claim pre
sented to Judge Henderson in the Or
phans' Court today by counsel repre
senting the different parties in interest.
According to Attorney Henry J.
Scott, counsel for Miss Kane, tho total
value of the estate will be about .$230.
000, entitling his client to nearly
542.000.
John J. Foulkrod, Jr.. the executor,
said he did not believe the estate would

Muuvon estate. It was odmltted before
Judge Henderson that an offer of 100
000 for the unencumbered real estate in
Florida, alone had been received from
responsible parties.
Attorney cott stated that the other
real estate is worth about $23,000 ad
ditional,, and the personal property, con
sisting principally of stock in the
Munyon Ilomeopnthic Home Remedy
Company, is nbotit equal ir valuo to the
real estate, making r total value of
about $250,000.
This was admitted by former Judge
. William W. Porter, counsel for Execu
tor Foulkrod. and also by Attorney
Harvey Uourley, reprcscnung u.c -

That the estate may even be worth
more Is the contention of former Judge
"Harmon Yerkes, of Doylcstown, Pa.,
counsel for Duke Munyon, and by At
torney William A. Gray, representing,
with John II. Maurer, the West End
Trust Company, ns guardian of Duke
Munyon's children.
Tho last-named attorneys filed ex
ceptions before Judgo Henderson to the
Inventory of the estate made by Execu
tor Toulkrod. They sprung a surprise
hv starting an inquiry into the reasons
why Clarence P. Wynne, vice president
, of the Munyon company, who had left
the employ of the company some time
before tho deatli of Munyon and was
receiving no salary ns vice president,
was Immediately re-employed as man
ager of the business at a salary of
$10,000 a year.

WATER NEED EMPHASIZED
Cheaper food for Philadelphia Is one
o the planks in the platform of Joseph

An adequate system of public mar
kets nt nn estimated cost of $20,000,

of which Director MacLnughlin is the
principal figure, proposes to lower the
cost of living.
"An adequate pure water supply Is,
of course, the first requisite of the city
and certainly pure fresh food comes next
in importance," he Said.,
"'I would favor a wholesale market
terminal near the Delaware river and
the belt line and the building of six re
tail markets for home sections."
The announcement of his candidacy
was addressed to J. Frederick .Tonkin
son, secretary of the Associated Busi

"In addition thereto, the establish

"Permit me to suggest the importance
of forming nt this time, in each ward
of the city, an active campaign com

for a bigger and better Philadelphia."
Vare Silent
Senator Vare maintained his silence
on the mayoralty question today. Aside
horn a reference made some weeks ago
when he spoke of W. Freeland Ken-
driclc, receiver of taxes, ns the "type"
of man needed for the office, ho has not
touched upon the situation for pub
lication. He refused to comment upon Director
MacLaughlin's announcement.
The executive committee of the
Chamber of Commerce will meet tomor
row afternoon at 12:30 o'clock. Some
action upon the proposed mass-meeting
may be taken at the gathering.
The chamber Is taking a poll of its
members to find what type of man they
prefer to hold the office. Seven thou
sand blanks were sent out. More than
one-third of these have already been
returned. It is thought that a definite
announcement of the result of the poll

HOG
AS FREPORT ZONE
Cost Will Be Small, W. J. Conlen,
of Philadelphia, Tells Dele
gates in Now York
SEVEN PIERS AVAILABLE
Advantages of Hog Island os the site
for a free port zone, were presented to
day nt n conference of commercial or
ganizations in New York by William J.
Conlen, chairman of the rommlttee on
merchant marine of the Philadelphia
Chamber of Commerce.'
The conference was attended by rep-
esentntlves of commercial organiza
tions from all parts of the country. Dele
gates from thix city include, besides Mr.
Conlen, William A. Lnw. C. V. C.
Stout nnd William L. Turner.
"Hog Island, with the facilities
adaptable there, can be transformed into
a froi-zone without the necessity of ex
pending any vast sums for. thnt pur
pose," Mr. Conlin told the conference.
"There are 027 acres of ground nt IIoj
Island, of which 130 ncres have hern
devoted to storage purposes. With
eighty-two miles of railroad trarks and
twenty-one miles of good roads, nil sur
rounded by eleven miles of fence, it
would nppear that Hog Island was am
ply equipped for transformation into .1
free zone.
"When it is further taken Into con
sideration that there are veven piers,
each 1000 feet long and 100 feet wide,
witli ways and machinery for the load
ing and unloading of ships nnd for
building and repair work, added advan
tages nre seen favoring the selection or
this plnnt for n free zone."
The delegates also discussed today the
advisability of establishing a permanent
free-zone organization, with headquar
ters and representatives in Washing
ton, that free-zone legislation may re
ceive attention.
In Congress the free-zone bill has
been referred to the Senate committee
on commerce and to the committee on
interstate and foreign commerce in the
House.

Take sample piece of tube one-fourth inch

three times its original length. Cut on the
edge with the scissors. The cut should not
be more than one-eighth inch across the
sample. If the strip tears apart the rub

that Norwalk Tubes, red and gray, do not

2. You huy a Norwalk floating stock Tube.
That's something. You learn to know it as
