For Advertising Purposes Only.

Recent advertisements of South
African oil company, prominently dis
played in London and other papers
throughout the British Islands, con
tain a flattering recommendation of
the holdings of this company by an
engineer, w. W. Van Ness who is
stated to be late of the United States
Geological Survey" Mr., Van Ness is
unknown to the geologists of the Unit
ed States Geological Survey and so
far as can be determined from the
records has never held any scientific
or other appointment with that Or
ganization. The statement that he
has been u member of this scientific
bureau of the United States govern
ment is obviously intended to delude
persons into purchasing stock on the
strength of the recommendation con-
veyed by this connection, and without
doubt it may have been successful in
misleading some. Such statement
amounts to no more nor less than
fraud, whether authorized by Mr.. Van
Ness or not.
Another case that has just come to
the attention of the Washington office
of the Geological Survey is a state.
