PUBLICITY BEST
FOR CORPORATIONS
Legitimate Concerns Would Be
Benefited, Says Wickershtam

Washington, Dec. 15.-sPublicity
for the legitimate corporation spells
prosperity, in my opinion" said Attor
ney General Wickersham in discuss
ing his crusade against bucketshops.
by publicity mean that business
corporations should not conceal the
records of their transactions, but
should make them public and should
at all times deal, fairly and frankly
with their stockholders and the public
in general. ..:.. :#-. 49,. -.
"This, in my estimation, is the best
means of encouraging confidence
among those who have money to in
vest and among those who are al
ready stockholders.
"But, above all, this publicity and
fair dealing would almost entirely do
away with the many wildcat, financial
schemes which have thrived in the
past and which the government is en-
deavoring to suppress by depriving
them of the use of the mails and in
other ways.
**Within the last few years the
American public has lost many mil.
lions of dollars through swindling op.
erations in imaginary enterprises,
bucketshops and get rich quick
schemes generally, promoted by allur-
ing advertisements and circulars. II
the investors had had opportunity to
know the real financial condition OF
methods their savings would not have
been lost. Instead their money would
have been put into legitimate bust
ness corporations"
