Today a warrant was issued for his
arrest. He is charged specifically with
failing to deliver stock for which he
had been paid.
According to friends, Ryder blamed
the crash Of his Arm on the sharp de-
cline of Stein Cosmetic stocks, which
fell from % to 8. He and Frank
Stoltz, president of the Stein Co., were
said to have formed pool in the stock.
For years Ryder lived sedately and
in an unpretentious Brooklyn apart
ment. Then suddenly he moved to Park
avenue, adopted several chorus girls
and started out to see the town. He
was called the knight Ryder of Broad
way in the clubs where he had become
familiar figure.
Last April he gave Union College at
Schenectady 100000 for a new cleo
trical laboratory The cornerstone of
Ryder Hall was laid few days ago.
Ryder's two partners in the broker
age firm, Charles L. Woody, jr., and
Lucien A. Hold, said that although
ruined by the collapse. they were de-
termined to see the claims of creditors
satisfied as fully and promptly as pos
sible.

MOTOR INDUSTRY
|. PLANS FOR future
Indications of immediate Up
ward Trend in Demand
Still Is Lacking.
BY the Associated Press.

DETROIT, August 21.-Still lacking
any indication of an immediate upward
trend in demand for new cars, the
automobile industry is continuing the
building of a solid foundation for flu
ture business. 1t was just about IL
months ago that the producers of motor
cars began to realize they had far over
shot the requirements of the trade and
had built many more thousands of auto
mobiles than theif dealer organizations
could dispose of.
Although the description is not rel
ished in the automobile industry, con-
ditions resulting from the overproduc-
ton and the cotncident business de-
preston were close to chaotic" Deal
ers' sales quotas had been constantly
increased. But with the industrial re-
cession and consequent unemployment
that followed last Falls stock market
crash, the motor car makers imme-
diately realized their dealer organiza-
tons could not keep up the pace set
for them and a reconstruction of the
entire production scheme in the auto
mobile industry began
The reconstruction work still Is In
effect, and already several motor car
executives profess to see a perfect level-
ing off of production and demand. The,
perfect balance between supply anCs
demand may not be fully attainable be-
cause of the highly competitive nature
of the industry, but the condition that
was faced last Fall with surplus Of
more than 100000 units is one which
the leading motor car makers propose
to avoid in the future.
It is IAN interesting fact that sales
to consumers during the last few weeks
have not measured up to the most con-
sentative estimates, despite the gener-
ally lowered price range, which have
made all classes of cars cheaper than
they ever have been. ,
The lowered price range is part of
the industry'S effort to Solidify its flu
ture business foundation, and indicates
that overproduction still is being dis
posed of. Not a few of the producers
in announcing price reductions frankly
have stated they were designed to clear
the way for new models shortly to be
brought out In other cases dealers
have been permitted individually to cut
prices to relieve overstocking.
1t is almost one of the traditions of
the automobile industry that whenever
a reduction is announced in the popu-
| lar-price field, rumors of a price-cut-
ting war gain circulation. It may be
said on good authority, however, that
the retail price of most, If not all mod
els Of automobiles, already has been
reduced to the point where the margin
OF pronI Is TOO sim 10 permit any
further marking down. On the con-
trary, many of the recently announced
reductions may have to be rescinded
when they have served the purpose Of
clearing out overstocking and new
| models contemplated come from the
production lines. Aside from all other
considerations, the automobile industry
as whole, is more concerned right
now in building substantial basis for
future business than 1t is in the ends
that might be served by general price,
cutting competition.
