REALTY COMP ANY
HIT BY DECISION
Attorney General Holds Kirby
People Are Doing Illegal
Business.
OFFERS BONDS FOR SALE.
INSTALLMENT PLAN USED is
AGAINST RULING OF INDIANA
STATUTES, AUDITOR BILLHEtM-
Err is TOLD.

State Auditor billheimer, in accord
ance with an opinion from the Attor-
ney General Bingham has held the
Kirby Realty company, which has
operated a branch Office in this city
has been doing an illegal business as
building and loan company. The
company is charged with having Of
fered bonds for sale on the install
ment plan, which constitutes an in
fringement of thelaw. The Kirby and
National Realty companies are eccus-
The attention of the officials has been
called to the matter and they are ask
ed to adhere to such rights as those
provided for by the charter only. Mr.
Billheimer asked for an opinion not
only as to whether the company was
violating the building and loan act
but whether there was any law. other
than the building and loan act that
would permit the company, if incor-
porated under 1t, to issue and sell
bonds in the form and terms fixed in
the bonds in question, and whether
a building and loan association even
could issue and sell such bonds.
The attorney general replied that
the corporation in question was in
corporated under the act Of 1915,
known as the manufacturing and min
ing act, which authorizes the incor-
poration of companies ito buy, sell
and lease lands and buildings and 9TH
err structures thereon, and to erect
dwellings and other buildings and
structures on lands leased or pur-
chased"
Holds Authority Is Lacking.
keeping In mind these we'll estab-
lished rules" says the attorney gene
raj in his opinion, after quoting his
authorities, "it is apparent that the
National Realty Corporation under it's
powers secured by incorporation. has
no authority to engage in any business
other than to carry out the objects
and purposes as expressed in its arti-
cles, which are to buy and sell real es-
tate, etc; nor do l think the power it
now assumes to have, namely, to issue
its gold bonds payable in ten, fifteen
and twenty years. and sell them to the
public, is in any proper sense Incl
dental to the conduct of a real estate
business, such as it is authorized to
to transact"
The attorney general says the COM
pany's advertising matter shows that
the main purpose of the corporation
in buying and holding real estate at
all is to give it credit with the public,
who may buy its gold bonds. The COM
pany advertises that it owns real es-
tate to the amount of S25O,OOO.
