Baron Rothschild,
Owen D. Young
Settle Book Suit

NEW YORK, (JTA)—The leg-
al battle between Baron Nathan-
iel Mayer Victor Rothschild,
great-great-grandson of Nathan
Rothschild, whO founded the
family bank in England, and
Owen D. Young, American in-
dustrialist,' over the real value
of a set of rare books sold by
an agent of Mr. Young's to Baron
Rothschild has been settled out
of - court.
In 1937 Baron Rothschild .pur-
chased from Gabriel Wells, an
agent of Mr. Young, a six-vol-
ume first edition of "Tom Jones"
by Fielding and an autographed
manuscript copy of the first
three books of Alexander Pope's
"Essay on Man." The price was
$7,500. In 1940 Baron Roths-
child discovered that the vol-
umes of "Tom Jones" were not
a first edition and that they con-
tained several fascimile pages.
He estimated that the set was
worth about $1,000, and insti-
tuted suit for the recovery of the
balance of the purchase price.
Baron Rothchild Restored
To Citizenship in France
PARIS, (JTA)—Acting under

gime, the State Council, which

istrative law in France, has re-
stored French citizenship to
Baron Henri de Rothschild. His
citizenship was revoked after
the fall of France in 1940. The
action of the State Council auto-
matically will enable Baron de
Rothschild to claim his posses-
sions confiscated by the Vichy
regime.
