Has All the

to bite at what appears to be fake
promotion scheme, when Messrs b, NJ
Garrett and II. II, Hoffman, pronot-
ers Of the Armstrong Townsite Co.,
entered into a contract with Francis
Feller, of Woodburn, for 225 acres
near Woodburn, on the Oregon Elec-
trio, seems evident after investlga'
tions made into the company by the
Portland Realty Board.
Advertising to the effect that large
factory was to be built on the site Ivy
the Armstrong Manufacturing Co., the
promoters induced several people to
purchase lots at an average price Of
$500 each. The investigating board
has evidence showing that Mr., Feller
did not receive anything for his land,
though several thousand dollars worth
of lots were sold 1t is said that the
promoters advertised that the puCchas-
ers would be protected by gold bonds
issued by the Guarantee Realty 4
