GeoKPeose FUNERAL PARLORS NoatranH Ae. at llanrork St. DEcatiir paint manufacturer, -as set- ting a precedent in determin' ing the responsibility of ex ecutors for the shrinkage of large estates. Due to the depression having drastically reduced the market value of stocks, bonds and real estate which usually form the bulk of sizeable estates in a period of three years, Surrogate Wlngate's decision Is expected to be of far-reaching import. Trial of the McCafferty dispute, recently concluded before the Surrogate, joined an issue believed to be pending in estates amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars awaiting settlement.

Crash Reduced the Estate McCafferty died Oct. 3, 1020, In the full tide of the stock market boom and prosperity. His estate was appraised for transfer tax pur-pases at $1,707,321 grass and net. With the exception of real estate holdings, small cash deposits in banks, jewelry, securities held as "gilt edge" at the time of the manufacturer's death comprised the bulk of the estate, or approximately $1,300,000. The stock market toboggan, however, has caused the "gilt edge" securities to undergo a depreciation of nearly $800,000 at current market quotations.

James McCafferty of the Hotel Plaza, Manhattan, and Mrs. Florence Meyer of Forest Hills, son and daughter of the manufacturer, are executors of the estate. Seven grandchildren, who share in a quarter of the estate, would have the executors called upon to make good the depreciation as it affects their legacies. I Hold txrculnrj to Blame The claim of the plaintiffs, set iorth in volumes of petitions, affidavits and testimony transcripts. Is that the executors improperly and unreasonably, and against the best interests of the legatees, held on to the securities in the declining market and caused them heavy financial losses that would not have been incurred had the securities, been promptly liquidated.

The defense follows several lines. The executors have pleaded, for one thing, that they were not wizards or prophets and could not, in the early days of the downfall, foresee the entire plunge of the market. They have cited that the general advice through 1931 and 1932 was to hold on for an upturn of the market, and this advice was directly given the executors by bankers and advisers, as well as freely published in interviews with leading statesmen and financiers. Deny ReHponsibllily Another defense point is that the 1929 market quotations of the securities gave them a "highly Inflated value" which the executors cannot be held responsible for falling to hold up. The larger McCafferty holdings Included large blocks of American Telephone Ac Telegraph, Coasoli-dated (las and Interborough Rapid Transit common, which have depreciated from October, 1929, quotations of 240, 130 and 32 to 107, 62 and 12.

as of August. 1932. i The grand children bringing the artion include Mary, Joseph and Florence Ferguson and Katherine Sylvester, children of a deceased daughter of the manufacturer, and Isabel, John and Catherine Mc-Cafferty, children of Ambruse. a deceased son. Attorney for the executor Is James S.
