(Established 1878) | ROCKEFELLER John D. Rockefeller no longer is the richest man in the ; world, according to rumor among big bankers. Wall Street Journal says: “Statement of W. C. Teagle, president of Standard Oil of N. J., before Senate committee, | that John D. Rockefeller has not been a stockholder in that | company since 1920, is considered confirmation of reports | current in banking circles for some time that the bulk of | the Rockefeller fortune has passed to John D. Rockefeller Jr. | “The reason for this transfer of ownership undoubtedly | takes in the rather drastic inheritance taxes, state ‘and | federal.” ‘ The inheritance tax can be dodged by. giving away pro-| perty before death. And gifts are not even taxable as in-| come. HAREMS There is no- polygamy in Turkey. Every man has just | one wife (at least, one wife at a time), in exactly the same manner as here in the United States. So claims Mufty Zade | K. Zia Bey, visiting Boston. He is a son of a former Turkish | ambassador to Washington. ‘ i Fresh from Constantinople, hp insists the sultan had only one wife, not a harem. Bey admits the existence of | harems, but says they are the dwelling places of wives brought home as males of the family marry. No matter what question is raised, there’s always the ‘other side to be heard from. t GENIUS A Spaniard who, at’ 40, has written 40 plays and had them all produced, will soon have nine of his.plays publish- | 1¢ ed in our country. .His name is Martinez Sierra. He also has translated and adapted 47 plays from other | ea ad and has written 30 volumes of poems and five of | ction.” In idle moments he_has edited a library of the world’s; classics translated into Spanish, and edits a highbrow maga- zine, runs a publishing house and manages the theater in Madrid that features his own plays. .. - * What does he do with his spare time? STRANGE What did we ever do with ourselves, to kill time, before we had movies? If you forget, go to Harrison, N. J. It’s ai town of 16,000 but is hasn’t a movie theater. | . The reason? Because the ctiy of Harrison has an ordi- ance levying a tax of $10,000 a year on a movie theater.
