ARCHDUCHESS SUED BY SON. (United Press Association—Copyright.) (Received This Day, 9.5 a.m.) VIENNA, November 26. • Suing his mother, the Archduchess of Blanca, for maintenance allowance, the Archduke Leopold Salvator, brother-in-law of [Princess Ileana, of Rumania, alleged in the Vienna Court that he had suffered humiliation at the hands of his nearest relatives. He said he depended entirely on his mother, and related that when he and liis brother became officers during the war the Empress of Austria allotted them £7OOO each for equipment. His mother kept the money and they were given merely swords and uniforms. He had been forced to beg every trifle from his mother. The Archduchess declared that her son squandered his money. The only means of supporting him properly was to furnish him with food. A friendly settlement was suggested, under which the Archduchess would pay the son a small monthly pension.
