The fundamentalist leader who died after a strenuous defense of the Bible on the scene of the Scopes evolution trial at Dayton, Tenn., left 8100,000 to various institutions for promotiob of “Christian education.” Although Bryan was reputed to have made vast sums in Florida real estate, he was worth actually only 8600,000, his will revealed. One third of this amount goes to the widow, after which one fourth is to be spent for Christian education and the balance divided among relatives and servants. The will Is a long document written on both sides several sheets of legs: paper in Bryan's own hand. In spite of his care in designating bene ftclarles. he failed to name an execu tor. but the probate court ordered the widow to serve in this capacity The Housing Shortage Ends. .
