The final, Ironic twist to one of the most sensational and bitter family quarrels in American society last week made 11 year old Peter Salm one of the richest children in the world. Although he was born of. a marriage which almost broke the heart of his grandfather, Colonel Henry Huddleston Rogers, the boy was made one of the principal heirs of that Standard Oil millionaire. Symbol of a quarrel which wrecked Colonel Rogers' first marriage and which echoed through the courts for years, Peter will receive a one third share of the oil man's $40,000,000 Similar Share to Mother A similar share will go to Peter's mother, Mrs. Arturo Ramos, whose former marriage to the impoverished Austrian Count Ludwig Salm von Hoogstraeten evoked Rogers' wrath.

Cuts Off Allowance The marriage was a sensation in society and a bitter blow to Colonel Rogers. Wrathfully he cut off his daughter's allowance. After a stormy "never darken my doorway again" scene Millicent ran off with her penniless bridegroom to Paris. Mrs. Rogers blew up.

The oil magnate settled $3, 000,000 upon her, and she moved to Paris, taking Henry with her. Meanwhile Millicent was having anything but easy sledding.

Only a few months after her arrival in France, she was dancing in a Montmarte cafe to provide food for her pleasure husband. But she found him too great a luxury. In September, 1924, less than nine months after their mar riage, she left him and returned to America. Peter Salm was born soon afterward in a Manhattan sanitarium. RESORTS ATLANTIC CITY.
