Grant Estimated At Hundred
Million Prize For Adhesion
To Spanish Republic
Proud Losers Of Holdings.
MADRID (P) A lsnd grsnt estt
mitd a, up In the hundred mil
lion constitutes the prl7 which the
present administration hopes to ofler
Spanish peasants as reward for their
adhesion to the republic.
An Inventory board appointed by
the treasury department la listing
lads or the aristocracy, making ready
to distribute arable acres among the
people under tne recently approved
arrarlan reform law.
Former grandees and other aristo
crats, who received their properties
from benign monarcha. staiM to lose
property estimated at 20o.ou0,000.
Proud Names Involved.
Offlolala admit, however, that this
total may b. reduced through mort
gage and lease technicalities which
they may not be able to overcome.
Proud names figure In the owner
ahlp of lands subject to confiscation.
The Dukes of Infantado, Pernan Nu
ns, Medlnacoll! and Romanones are
listed as holding lands ranging from
3,000,000 to 17,000.000 In value for
each. These holdings a e being scru
tinized as possible "heritages of the
Spanish peasant."
Two major problems affect the
probable action. Under the reform
law the government must decide
whether these aristocrat used their
"palatine rights," or In other words
acted as stewards to the royal family.
Also It must decide whether the
dons used other privilege of their
exalted station, auch as the prerog
ative of outomatlo access to the sen
ate with full voting rowere.
Sons Plan to Keslst.
Romanones, Alba. Medlnocellt and
other outstanding flgmea of -he past
regime are arraying legal lights to
defend their Interests.
Doughty Romanones atands out
particularly as a staunoh defender
of property which he claims to have
"amassed and administered aa a true
Spaniard throughout a lengthy ca
reer devoted to home and country."
Others of the affected arlstocrata
are reported so to have tied up their
holdings In mortgage and leases that
the agrarian reform Institute may
find itself facing International law
In numerous instances.

Point December 1, at the Commun
ity hospital, where she tipped the
settles at Just two pounds. Is report
ed getting along very well there and

PORTLAND, Dec. 33. (AP) An
actual shortage of small to medium
sized turkeys was shown In Port
land for the Christmas trade despite
the grestest supply ever received
here for like period. The most
Intensive demand has been shown
to date for small to medium sized
birds with more or leas discrimina
tion against the larger toms the
weights from 18 pounds up.
Prices stiffened somewhat for the
hen turkeys but 13c remains the
general top today. Here and there
a turkey or two may be sold to some
retailer shove this price but In whole,
saw lots 15c Is the general extreme.
The movement of large toms Into
storage has been forced by the lack
of demand. The extreme low price
has created some speculative interest
In those birds.
