BLUE SKY LAWS
Of IOWA UPHELD.
FEDERAL JUDGE DENIES THAT
THERE is MERIT IN POINTS
RAISED IN OPPOSITION.

Des Moines, Jan. 1.-THE validity
of the so-called blue sky" law of Iowa
Is sustained in decree filed in the
federal court today by Judge Smith Nc
Pherson. The law seeks to control the
sale of investment securities in the
state. and its constitutionality was as
sailed by attorneys for the investment
companies.
Judge Mcpherson in letter written
to each Of the attorneys in the case
says: Il see no occasion for me to ex-
press by views as to this statute under
the state constitution, although | be-
lieve it not to be in conflict with the
state constitution. AS to the United
States constitution. it seems to me
that the entire case is more of an
academic question than a practical
one"
The original action against the law
was brought by the VIM. r. Compton
Co.. Of Kansas City which was joined
later by investment brokers of st.
Louis, New York and other cities.
