MAUGHAM NOTES A SAD BIRTHDAY ST. BAN-CAP A France, Jan. 25-- (DPI) Somerset Maugham, millionaire man of letters, today marks his 89th slflhday involved in a squabble with his daughter over money.

The aged British writer had no special plans for the day. But if the weather is clear he may leave his picturesque Villa Ma- resque and slroll along rocky Cape Ferral, a small headland jutting out into the blue Mediterranean not far from Nice. He may even take time to work on his lite story. After breakfast his time-honored custom is to wander through the villa's Moorish-style gardens look at the prize roses and isten lo the songs of hundreds of exotic birds in cages amid the shrubbery. Sorrow is his constant compan- on these days and his health is not robust.

Sues For Return Maughan is suing his daughter, -ady Elizabeth Hope, for Ihe return of more than SI million in he his given her during a ifelime. Ke has also denied he was her father, claiming his late wife, Syrie, was still married to ier first husband when Lady Elizabeth was conceived. "My daughter never cared a rap for me," he said recently. She answered: "It is quite absurd. I am very fond of him." The suit against Lady Elizabeth grew out of a tangled web ol legal action.

It has hurt the cosmopolitan old gentleman deeply. "It is a great pity that at his age there should be this family unhapplness," Alan Searle, his ongtlme secretary and newly adopted son, said last night. Searle said Maugham "deeply 'eels the rift" with Lady Elizabeth and that it is alkcting his health. "Today he is a sad man who eels starved of lamily affection. There have been many unhappy years in his life.

This is one more," Searle said with a sigh. Still Writing Maugham, who has given the vorid such works as "The Moon and Sixpence," "Of Human Bondage," and "Cakes and Ale," said he is still writing a bit. "Mostly on my biography. 1 hope to finish It-- it I live long enough," he said. During the past year, Maugham las involved in a number of sensational developments that started with Ihe sale of his modern art collection last April Trustees for Lady Elizabeth iled suit blocking the transfer to New York of 5642,826 of the proceeds of the sale.

They claimed the paintings belonged to Lady Elizabeth, Then Maughan published part of his aulobiography-- originally ntended lo be held until after lis death-- in which he gave a 'rank account of the lite of his wife, Syrie. It roused strong criticism Irom icr friends. This was followed by his suit against his daughter, his attempt to disinherit her and his adoption of Searle, now 58, who has been with Maughan for more Ihan hree decades.
