By the Associated Press. JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 26— The network of contracts and con- veyances thrown about the Palm Beach estate of Richard Croker, for- mer Tammany Hall leader, today had been torn away by the action of Judge Rhydon Call in Federal Court. In a decision handed down vester- day, Judge Call declared conveyances by Croker to J. B. McDonald and the Palm Beach Estates, a corpora were null and void in that the lated the constitutionally guaranteed homestead rights of the widow Under the ruling of Judge Call title to the property is vested in the widow and the heirs of Croker by his first wife. A series of deeds executed by Croker and Mrs. Bula Croker, his | second wife, purporting to_convey the property to McDonald and the Palm Beach Corporation- were held void since they did not constitute such an alienation of his homestead rights as to fall within the section of the Florida constitution covernig the alienation of such rights. Since these rights were not alienated, the judge held, the deeds did not displace the heirs and the widow of title. Children Fought Contracts. A bill seeking to have the con- tracts declared void was filed in January by Howard Croker, Ethel Crok ‘White and Richard CroKer, jr., children of Croker by his first wife. The bill brought a motion by Bula Croker, J. B. McDonald and the Palm Beach Estates, defendants in the ac- tion, seeking to have it dismissed for want of equity. The original bill sought to have a fee simple title to the property vest- ed in the complainants, subject to the dower rights of the widow, Bula Croker. It asked that the McDonald contracts be set aside on the ground that under the Florida constitution Croker had no right to convey prop- erty set aside as his homestead in such a manner as to defeat the rights of the widow and the heirs to the property. The decision also holds null and void a series of contracts executed by Croker and Mrs. Bula Croker, to one Eccleston, and {rom Eccleston to Bula Croker and Richard Croker jointly, involving the Palm Beach property.

Progressive merchants advertise not only the truth but the whole truth. No better example of these facts is to be seen than in the advertising of imperfect, irregular or second ' merchandise by stores co-operating with the Better Business Bureau. If you notice these advertisements state prominently—in the headlines of the item—that the goods are “seconds,” “irregulars” or “imperfect.” . Thoughtful shoppers know that oftentimes they can obtain very valuable merchandise at a rare price by buying imperfects or seconds. Advertisers in presenting such merchandise to the public do not use unknown terms such as “factory rejects,” “substand- ard,” but—co—operating with this Bureau for confi- dence-inspiring advertising—let the public know the exact state of the goods. Among its other activities, the Better Business Bureau makes a continual check to protect the public against imperfect merchandise advertised without stating in a prominent manner that it is'not perfect. This check has the support of legding advertisers as a means of building good will for advertising.
