LONDON, Nov. 3.—The remark
made yesterday by Major John Jacob
Astor, who said “I am transferring
my wealth from Arrterica to this coun-
try," was treated as a. big item of
news in this morning's papers. One
headline read: "Astor Millions Com-
ing Here." By Slime it was assumed
that the major who is a brother of
Viscount Astor Mo’rley, referred to his
recent investment. in Lord Northcilffe's
share of the London Times stock
which he and J. A. \‘Valter purchased
for more than'six milliorrndollars, but
others gave the remark a more sen-
sational turn.
\ ){ajo‘r Astor. who is contesting for a
seat from Dover in the coming elec-
tions made~the statement in replying
to a heckier, who inquired whether
he" was going to expose his own
wealth to British taxation. ,
NEW YORK, Nov. 3.——-Therc was
much speculation in New York today
oyer the reported announcement: in
London, yesterday, by Major the Hon.
John Jacob Astor, that he was tirans-
ferring his wealth from America to
England. The realty and personal
holdings of the late Baron (\Viiliam
Waldorf) Astor in the United-'suites
totalled more than $80,000,000, ac-
cording to a referee’s report filed last
March in Supreme Court.
Of this vast fortune in which Major
Astor participates with Viscount
Astor, his elder broufe‘r. 350,000,000 is
repreesnted in realty. The property
was conveyed to the two sons in trust
in 1919 andthe income from that
sou‘rce is placed at $5,291,260. In ad
dition Major Astor was given outright
by his father Manhattan realty valued
at more than $7,000,000. ’
. Several pieces of New York proper-
ty have been sold by Major Astor in
the past few years. but it is considered
unlikely he will dispose of all real
estate in this counth'y, but. rather will
tra er his income of personal prop-
e to England. .‘ '
