Holding
The court held that a newspaper publisher who collected public donations for the families of deceased firemen became a voluntary trustee of a private, discretionary trust, that the minor beneficiary was not entitled to immediate possession of his share of the trust corpus, and that the proper administration of the trust required the joinder of all acting trustees to a judicial proceeding concerning its terms.
