late and control and TO prevent fraud
by correspondence schools were made
to-day by Patrick n. Kelley. counsel
tor the International Correspondence
school. the International Text Book
Company and the International Pub
fishing Company. who appeared be
fore the legislative committee on
mercantile affairs to oppose the meas
ure filed with the petition Of Former
Representative Clarence A. Barnes. OF
Mansfield. Mr.. Kelley said that the
bill was aimed at the International
Correspondence school and sought TO
prevent that corporation from selling
stock in other corporations. The
measure was unconstitutional. he
said. In that II proposed to deprive

Premium on Fraud.
The lawyer declared that the meas
ure would put a premium on fraud
because n would make the CORE
spondence school subject to attack
by its pupils and by persons who en-
gage In selling It's stock He charged
that the firm OF J. s. Olpr 4 Co. was
organized by Mr.. Barnes. and that
the company had attacked the spcuri-
ties OF the International Correspond
ence Schools. He called the commit
tees attention 20 the fact that none
or the Massachusetts pupils Of the
International Cores pohdence Schools
who. he said. numbered $4,000. had
appeared In support Of the bill.
