BI'ZZARDH DAY. Mas.. Nov. 30.
(A. P.) Charles (.iurland. the young
man who has renounced his right to
a million dollar legacy left him by his
father, James A, Oarland, who was a
wealthy clubman and yachtsman of
Boston, has made a formal statement
of his reasons for rejecting the money.
Ilia statement, he said, was due to the
fact that the many reports of his fail
ure to accept the leuacy hiul fulled
properly to present Ills position.
"I refuse to accept the money b
cause it la not mine," tiarland .said.
"A system which starves thousands
while hundreds are siuffed condemns
Itself. A system which leaves a sick
woman helpless and offers lis services
to a healthy man, condemn! Itself ; It
Is such a system that of ferslnc a mil
lion dollars."

Many people have written to tell
hint what could be done with the mon

out the power that I have in my hands
but It is tho most pitiful thing they
could point to. Yon cannot Berve tlod
and Mammon." So many people ready
to aerve the dollar means so many les
to serve Cod. There are great oppor
tunlties to do good but they are ii
men's hearts, not In my- check book."
Mr. Garland s statement was madr
from his home here, a former Inn of

Mr. Collinsi found that conditions In

There Is yet possible a lowering In
some lines of business, he said, but
the bottom of the present depression
period has about been reamed. Peo

several months.
"Wheat should gain somewhat in
price after the optimism or business!
begins to assert itself," Mr. Collins!
said. "It is my personal belief that I
wheat will come back, although It will I
probably not go as high as formerly.
