FORGERY CHARGED
INBANKRUPT CASE
Brokerage Firm Head Denies
Issuing Documents With
His Signature.
By the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, June IS (P).-Charges
of forgery and sharp practice were made
yesterday at a bankruptcy hearing on
the affairs of the Wall Street brokerage
concern of Woody SJ Co., which failed
for $2,000,000 last week.
Charles L. Woody, jr, titular head of
the firm, said signatures purporting to
be his on documents presented by his
brother-in-law and brokerage partner
Harold Russell Ryder, were forgeries
The documents were given to Frank
Bailey, head of a financial house, as
security for stock he had bought from
the firm, but never received.
Ryder, who has been pictured as
Broadway play boy, is under $4,000
bail pending trial of an indictment
charging him with grand larceny in
the conduct of the firms affairs.
Mr.. Bailey identified the documents,
one of which transferred Ryder's pur-
ported share in stock exchange men,
bership. as having been given to him
by Ryder. They were signed also by
Ryders wife, who is Woody's sister.
Mr.. Bailey said that he stood to lose
several hundred thousand dollars in
the failure. and had known for some
time that affairs of the company were
not as they should have been. He
said he had confidence in Ryder, how
ever, and had not been so severe with
him as conditions apparently war
ranted. He said he refused an offer
of Ryders wife to turn over to him
her jewelry as security for stock Ryder
had failed to deliver.
He also revealed that $500 900 which
Ryder had contributed to Union Col
lege, Schenectady, N. Y, of which Mr..
Bailey was treasurer, was the fruit of
a speculative account he had left In
Ryder's hands. He said he had ordered
Ryder to turn over to the college the
profits from the account.
Ryder appeared at the hearing this
afternoon, but was not questioned. He
was ordered to report again Thursday
morning.

EXPECT 5 MORE
IN PARK POLICE
Increase Still Felt insufficient
to Cover Growing
Area.

The United States park police force
is expected to be increased by eight men
on July /, as a result of recent legisla-
tion, but Capt. Ray G. Montgomery,
United States Army, the superintendent,
hopes to see the force doubled within a
short while, to care adequately for the
growing park system of the National
Capital.
Lieut.. Col u. S. Grant Sd, director of
Public Buildings and Public Parks, has
been asked by Capt. Montgomery to seek
Budget Bureau sanction for an increase
approximating rs per cent. The present
strength of the United States park
police is II men.
Under the new law for the White
House police, four men, heretofore on
duty at the executive mansion grounds
will become available for general duty
in the parks. Four additional men have
been granted under recent congressional
authority, effective July l, and will be
available, If the District of Columbia
appropriation bill passes. If the bill
sponsored by Representative Moore,
Democrat of Virginia, to turn over
Jurisdiction of unpoliced roads near the
Arlington National Cemetery to the
park police is passed, four privates and
one sergeant will be added to Col.
Grants command.
Capt. Montgomery is convinced that
the present need of the United States
park police is for greatly increased
