BLUE SKY LAW IN KANSAS
An Effective Check on Promoters
Issuing Certificates On
wind.

ora year ago the Kansas legislature
ressed q Law requiring that before any
istoch or bond certificate could be sold
In that state the seller must obtain a
permit and certificate from the banking
department OF the state In order TO OBJ
tain that, permits the financial standing
organization, plans and operations Of the
company whose siock or bonds are TO be
sold must be presented 10 the banking
department and be passed upon. Out OF
over 600 requests made In ten months
since the Law went into effect. only forty
four have been granted. one mining pro-
moter Is In jail for trying to sail stock
without permit. The banking depart
msnt OF Kansas estimates that already
IL can see q saving OF from N0oo.oo to
y. 10000 per year TO the people OF Kansas
who had been muleted by dishonest pro-
motsfs OF NAT stock certificate property.
Attention Is called to this blue sky
law for two reasons. First. that law is
coming in every state Of the union. II
should have come long ago, Those who
know the facts will not consider Il an
overeststement to say that the present
widespread system OF manufacturing
stock certificates. purportlns TO represent
mining BUSINESS corporations. and cover
ing the country with agents TO dispose Of
these certificates TO ignorant people. Is
perhaps the most wholesale system Of
robbery carried on In modern society to-
day. Second, because some such exam
nation and supervision by expert author
lty Is necessary In order TO protect lesiti-
mate business, and separate from the
mass Of fiat property those certificates
which represent real value and real
property. Unless something like this u
done II viii not be long before great
enterprises will come under the suspicion
which Is very general now. and in order
10 uproot this system OF robbery great
harm may be done to honest industry.
II some critic asks II this Is not tryins
10 protect the fools. and make men hon
est by legislation. the answer Is that the
state makes its corporation laws and u
Is vicious neglect Of its duty when Il
fails 10 supervise the mighty agencies for
honesty or dishonesty which Il sets in
motion. Il Is the business Of the state
to protect the ignorant from the dishon-
est. else We would abandon every law
against frsnd or then. II is the bust
ness OF the state TO see 10 II that as far
as Is possible its laws shall not become
the instruments OF robbery. Every state

TO obligs It's bankers 10 be honest. under
severe penalty. In this blue sky law.
