"FRAUDs" AND "FooLs."

Vice Chancellor Pitney at Newark N. j., in
hearing last month an application for receiver for
the Universal Tobacco Company, interrupted coun-
sci to buntly observe: Everybody ought to know
that stock is inflated to unload 1t the public.
consider it fraud and the people who buy are
fools"
The harsh, iangIing note thus rudely sounded
is calculated to jar and the swelling accord of
high finance.
Fraud" is hard name for what grafters have
been exploiting as good business"
''Fools'-that is a stiff characterization of peo-
pie who dream of getting rich through buying stock
in other peoples fervid imaginings.
But New Jersey vice chancellor ought to
know the facts and speak the truth, He has Iirst-
class facilities for having accurate information.
But his startlingly crisp words convey no more
than the uninlightened public has long suspected.
On Wall street they are fond of calling the late
furry in stocks ''rich mans panic" But before
the settlements and adjustments all made it will
be found that it is the poor who have been pinched
hardest. 1t may be rich mans panic, but it is
the poor mans loss. 1t is always so.
In this decline not only spectators but regular
traders have lost heavily but it appears that not
few trust funds have been invested in stocks of little
worth. Widows have lost their support guardians
have forfeited the slender funds that provided for
their orphan charges and even colleges have lost
portion of their incomes through the decline of
their investments
There are plenty of victims besides the rich
Americans are naturally of Il speculative turn, and
from the day they landed as colonists have been
used to taking risks in the hope of large profits,
daring the possibilities of failure. They are natur-
allv fond of taking "long shots and the man who
offers them a get-rich-quick" scheme does not
lack for clients.
Especially is this the case when men of large
wealth. who have generally been considered safe and
successful financeers hold out golden bait stocks
that tempt by large earnings in industries that APP
pear to be hedged about by monopoly. In the past
few wears the craze of combination and the apparent
enormous profits in cutting off competition have
swept MANY men off their feet. They have been
blinded by the glitter of possibilities and have not
seen the risks.
MANY of the later trusts seem to have capital
lied present profits and future possibilities up to
the highest limit and then issued additional shares
upon the imagination of the promoters. Naturally
such reckless credulity has led to disaster and the
promoters who put in only imagination and prom
Uses are not the heavy losers.
Fraud" and ''fools," says Judge Pitney.
But he does not tell us when or how this process
is to be terminated, nor how dabblers in inflated
stocks are to be protected from the unoward conse
quences of their foil y.
