'The reason," he added, "is not for any fear of the world or dislike, for people." His brother, Carl F. Setz, with whom he shared the $2, 800,000 estate of their late fath er, explained that Helmuth led a normal, active life while op erating his mining companies n Colorado before his seclusion here.
