say that the bobbed head IL passing.
American girls are too sensible ever to
abandon the chic, the convenience, the
general desirability of the bobbed
head If wearing long skirts means
going in for Grecian or any other
elaborate effects in couture, why then,
| am sure they will not wear the long
skirt. They are too sensible.
"There is no end to the demand for
bobbed hair. Only this morning cut
the white hair of grandmother. She
looked beautiful with it short. Mark
my words, the bob will stay"
Over at the Biltmore, where Herman
J. Bosch presides, the story was told
Of a tall and graceful customer who
came in and begged for marteaux or
something to disguise the fact that
her hair is bobbed.
Last night I was 80 Inundated"
she said. II had just bought a beau
tiful new gown. The lines were long
and sweeping. Ny bobbed hair was
newly curled. When l saw. myself in
a mirror from the waist up I was de-
lighted. Everything seemed just right
But suddenly seeing myself In full
incongruity of my long skirts and my
short hair. 1 must have something
at once to set this right"
1t was said in this hairdressing es-
Establishment that there is decided
demand for artificial pieces of hair
since long skirts have become more
and more the vogue, although it is
usually the tall, rather mature woman
who is on a quest of this kind The
fappcr is still true to her type. She
shows no sign of pulling down the flag
and merging her present aggressive
identity in the soft nimbus of Grecian

Pair of "Painless''
Bandit Suspects
Heldin Heavy Bail
20 10 80 Park Robberies
Laid to Men Identified at
the Island by Victims;
Grand Jury TO Get Gases

Alleged members of the "painless
holp-up trio who have operated a new
confidence game in Van Cortlandt and
Bronx parks with apparent success
were taken from the workh ouse on
Welfare Island yesterday, where they
are serving sentence of five months
and twenty nine days, to the West
Farms Court, where they were held
for the grand jury by Magistrate
Renaud. The men are Patrick Nc
Claferty, thirtyfo years old, and
Thomas Storey, twenty-four years old,
both Of All West Fifty-seventh Street
Bail was set at $4,000 and S25, 1000 re-
spectively, although the men we're re-
turned to the workhouse to complete
their sentences, pending the action of
the grand jury.
The alleged bandits were arrested
last Thursday night in Van Cortlandt
Park after they had posed as detec-
tives, according to the police, demand
ing gift Of $50 as an alternative to
arrest from Edward Smith, of Darien
Conn, who had parked his car without
lights. The wouldbe swindlers were
arraigned the following day and sent
to the island.
Believing they were at last on the
trail Of men responsible for some
twenty-five or thirty hold-ups In the
park section recently, the police took
compliments to Welfare Island, where
the men were identified.
Their mode of approach. according
to victims, was to demand Of passers-
by what they knew of recent hold-ups,
declaring themselves detectives. The
next step would be to take over valu-
ables for "inspection," give official re-
ceipts and say that the property would
be returned at a nearby police sta
ton.

Court Refuses
'ToIIalt Auction
OF Ryan Stock
Judge Hand Rules Collateral
Was Held as Pledge for
Loans. and Receiver Has
No Right TO Interfere
Agreement With Banks
institutions Will Buy In
Shares to Protect Them
selves: 5-Point Decline

The petition of Francis G. Caffey,
receiver for Allan A. Ryan, to restrain
the Guaranty Trust Company and other
banks from selling approximately 1885,
900 shares OF Stutz Motor stock and
morrow was denied yesterday by Judge
Hand in United States District Court
after lengthy hearing.
Judge Hand ruled that the collateral
was held as pledges for loans and that,
despite the contention of David Hunter
Miller, counsel for the receiver, that the
agreement entered into by the banks
with Mr.. Ryan and associates was in
fact an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, ne he had no right to inter-
fere in the sale.
The Court indicated, however, that
II the receiver had had control of the
collateral or if it was probable that the
amount that would be realized might
exceed the amount due under the loans
further consideration might be given.
Agrees With Banks Counsel
Under the circumstances the court
vas inclined to agree with counsel for
the banks that the agreement under
which loans to Mr.. Ryan were extended
eighteen months did not constitute an
assignment for the benefit of creditors,
but was rather q statement of regula-
lions for governing the trustee and
that it terminated on notice given to
Mr.. Ryan by the banks July 8.
In the course of the argument be-
fore Judge Hand it was brought out
that the banks intended to buy in the
collateral put up at auction tomorrow
in order to protect themselves. This
statement came out in a discussion
Of the probable value Of Stutz Motor
shares, which yesterday fell more than
Ave points in transactions on the Curb
market to 1914 share.
1t was further shown that three
large loans were made by the Guaranty
which remain unpaid, aggregating
about S7,30Q,0o0. These loans were
secured largely by 111,000 shares of
Stutz Motor stock, and it was con-
tended that even at $50 share the
Stutz stock would be insufficient to
meet the obligation.
Couldn't Meet Expenses
The charge was made during the
hearing that Mr.. Ryans predicament
was brought about, not through pres
sure of the banks, but through the for
mer brokers' inability to meet current
expenses. The receivers attorney as
serted that all Of Mr.. Ryan assets
were turned over to the trustee at the
time Of the agreement, December 15,
1920, but the banks maintained that
advances aggregating $4,000 had
been made to Mr.. Ryan subsequent to
this date in the hope that he would be
able to rehabilitate himself.
Apparently there was a possibility up
to the last moment that the agreement
by which Mr.. Ryan was carried by
the banks for eighteen months would
be extended, but the Guaranty Trust
Company, acting as trustee, decided
against such a plan and ordered the
banks, the Chase National and Mechan-
les and Metals, acting with the Guar
anty, to convert into cash the collat-
sral held as pledges for loans to Mr..
RYAN.
