Olwin, secretary-manager of the Indianapolis Hotter Huslncss Huroau In a report mado to hs organization. Tho passage of such a law was urged by Governor Goodrich In his mcssago to tho .assembly and tho administration forces threw their weight behind tho measure, i When persons really interested In obtaining a law that would protect

tho public from "qucstionablo securi- j

ties" learned that it, like tho curative tasc measuro, was full of jokers, they recalled that tho Rovernor himself has been interested from time to time In the promotion of stock enterprises through his Winchester bank. Ideal for Stock Salesmen. "In the opinion of the bureau manager," Mr. Olwin's report says, "this Is not such a bluo sky law as the peoplo of Indiana havo been demanding, nor suoh a law as they had a right to expect their representatives In the senate and house to give them. To our mind it Ls an ideal stock salesmen's blue sky law. ' "Tho first amendment struck out the words 'prlncfpal or agent,' In Sec

"Tho next amendment which worked, havoc with this bill wag that 'which struck out all of paragraph 'lv of Section 1 and other parts of the bill requiring the filing of copies of 'all contracts of agreements between tho Issuer and underwriters of such eccurities,' etc., and all-contracts relative to the sale or disposition of fltock, together , with copies of the minutes of directors or stockholders relating to or affecting tho Issue of such securities. f "This provision was the very meat of tho Ulli, as it passed the house and would have done more' than all the rest of the bill put together to protect 'the public from the sale of questionable securities.

Sales Are Not Voidable. "Another amendment struck 'out all of Section J0, which made sales consummated In violation of tKfc provisions of this act 'voidable providing that request for the return of the money was made In writing within one year. Is there any good reason why a sale raaile In violation "of tho law shield not be voidable? t "The salesman of questionable securities prefers to work. under a bluo sky law If such a law is to his liking, as he uses the fact that the state has a blue sky law to boost fifs sales.

COUNTERFEIT

HE public has received many warnings against counterfeiters. It is not a

rare thing to hear bank experts say that -spurious money finding its Wav

to the banks so closely resembles the genuine that they can but just detect the very slight difference and through the hands of some these spurious coins and bills have passed as readily as the good to the great detriment of the commercial world.

CRT

0UNTERFEITS are found in every phase of life more es

pecially among newspaper advertisements. Many good, honest, hard-working men and women have accepted them as reliable and invested their money and immediately afterward realize that they have paid dearly and bitterly for their ignorance.
