AC i" es 1G r i ! : ’ r t PAGE TWELVE. REPARATIONS QUESTION iS STILL MAIN PROBLEM -- COOLIDCE) NAME OF RYAN THRILLS WALL Deferred Until regards the final settlement o: STREET AGAIN Specialty. Stock Price Run Up in Market by Allan A. Ryan, Jr. By ROWLAND Woop. (Staft Correspondent of The Casper ¥ Tribune) ¢ Copyright, 1924, Consolidated Press 4 Association) NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—Once more, for the third generation, the name of Ryan has been associated in Wall street with aiskyrocketing stock, Twenty years ago the talk of the street was Thomas Fortune Ryan and his spectacular adventures which enabled, him to retire in 1908, many times a millionaire. Three years ago, it was Allan A. Ryan, old Thomas Fortune's son, who: ran his fortune up to thirty-five millions. only to be battered into bankruptcy by the street for staging his’ Mistoric corner in Stutz: Motors. And today it. js Allan A. Ryan, Jr, a chip off the old. block, who has them all talking. Just, out of Yale, where, he was graduated with high honors, young Ryan has been a full fledged trader in the’Street but 10 days. But in that time, his operations on the curb exchange, where he started in a small) way, are credited with having rent the price of Film Inspection Machine, hitherto a most sédate little stock, up from $4 to $9 a share. Young Ryan, they say, in the Street, has been. snapping up every share of Film, Inspection that has assumed, to register a profit and: to: keep his holdings. from getting unwieldy. Whether he {s buying for himself or for a client is not generally known, for young Ryan has learned at least one thing about market op- eration—how to keep one’s lips tightly sealed. Whether he will make a killing in the stock also is as yet unknown. It is one thing—as any trader in the Street, including his father, will tell you—to run up a hig profit on paper. | It ts another thing to cash that profit in’ before the market collapses under your selling. ‘The whole point tothe campaign in’ Film Inspection, old traders mee it, is that {t marka young Allan's bow to the bullé and bearg. And the bulls and bears are keenly interested in| seeing whether young Allan is gaing to follow tn ‘his father’s foot. steps and “buck” the Street itself— in which-case he {s likely to get in very, very bad, or whether he is go- ing -to- follow -more closely inthe path laid down by his grandfather, whg made his pile and was allowed to get away with It, because he play- ed the game accordihg to the Street's rules. Already the Street is looking ask- ance at statements attributed to young Ryan that he was going “to make, a-haul” ‘and help rehabilitate the fortunes of his father, who had just $16 in cash when he threw up the fight and went into bankruptcy. But it’s a serious question whether young.Ryan. made any such. rash statements. If he did,“he had got over that point of. view. beforethe ‘writer talked to him today, Allan, Jr., @ hawk-nosed, aggressive looking chap, in his early twenties, Was any- thing but bombastic. ‘I'm. just.down here to.try to make # living,” he said simply. “I’m not Jooking for any publicity and I would ‘be~glad if you could just let it drop, without writing anything’ about me at all.” “Ia it true that -you are the force behind .Film Inspection?" he was asked. “No sir—I don’t know anything about~it—really, And, the fledgeling Ryan excused himgelf_politely and hurried away, Maybe to talk over the doings of the day with-his'father. Maybe with his ‘grandfather. For though old ‘Thomas Fortune and his son, Allan, have not spoken since the former's marriage a few days after the death of Allan Ryan's mother, young Allan is on the best terms with them both.

BLOW iN CLAIM GEORGIA NEWLYWEDS DEALT THAT RECENT MARRIAGES ARE ALL ILLEGAL BY MILLARD FERGUSON (Staff Correspondent of The Casper Tribune) (Copyright, 1924, Consolidated Press Association) ATLANTA, Aug. 22.—Newly- weds all over Georgia are begging Attorney General George M. Napier to.come home and say it isn’t so. With the attorney general away from his office on a vacation, 8. C- McLendon, secretary of state, con- tends that every marriage solem- nized since August 18 is illegal. He bases bis opinion on‘ the law recently passed by the legislature requiring applications for marriage Ucenges to be posted five days before the Mcense is jssued. He holds that this law went into effect on August 18 and that every marriage _ per- formed since then has been illegal because the license applications were not posted the required five days, ‘With the attorney general absent, there is nobody to gainsay the secre- tary of state, though Ordinary Thomas Jeffries, of Fulton county, is doing the best he can by his clients in the business of license buy- ing. He declares that any. matri. montal knots tied in the last three days are legally binding. Governor Clifford Walker has not expressed his opinion as to whether Several score of honeymoon couples in Georgia are not really married at all, and Superior court judges who were questioned today side- stepped it as 4 ticklish question. But Secretary of State McLendon has no doubts on the matter. ..He only says the persons married dur- ing the past few days in Georgia might as well have been reciting Mother Goose rhymes for all the holy vows meant in the eyes of the law, but the same very likely will apply to marriages for some days to.come. His advice to all engaged couples is “Dont!” He urges them to wait several weeks ‘before they marry, unless they want to find themselves going through an illegal ceremony. The law was passed)to. stop “kin- dergarten” marriages, but it takes in old and young alike. The most pretentious marriage that has taken place here’since the marriage of Lucy Candler, grand: daughter of the Coco” Cola “king, “is illegal if Mr. McLendon is right. It was-that of Miss. Blanche Carter Devine to Harold Fries Evans, of Rosemont, Pa., celebrated Monday night in the ball room of the Bilt- more Hotel with two thousand guests present, The end of the’ ball” room was turned into an altar with large white candelabra on each side hold- —of true value MEDNICK BROS. Hart Schaffner & Marx SUITS ing burning tapers and strung about the room were as many orchids as Lucy Candler had at her wedding. The wedding dress cost a fcertune but Mr. McLendon says that the pearls will not make any difference. The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George B. Evans and is a mem- ber of the Philadelphia Country Club, the Cricket Club and other clubs of social distinction. The marriage was performed by Bishop H. K Mikell, of the Methodist-Episcopal diocese of Atlanta. Thirty five engagements were an nounced *in one Atlanta paper last Sunday, including the wedding plans of former Governor Joseph M. Brown, of Georgia. Society folk here are wondering whether these weddings will be delayed.
