SKY laws
CONSTITUTIONAL |: |:
SAYS HIGH COURT
North Dakota's Statute Prevent.
ing Fraudulent Sale of securi-
ties Similar to Ones Upheld
DECLARED INVALID BY
LOWER FEDERAL JUDGES
Twenty Six States Have Acts to
Prevent Get Rich Quick"
and Wild Cat Schemes
ASSOCIATED Press)

Washington, Jan. 22-~Bue Sky laws
Of three states-Ohio, South Dakota
and Michigan,-designed to curb the
sale Of fraudulent securities, were to-
day upheld as constitutional by the
supreme court.
Blue Sky laws, enacted first in Kan
sas in 1911 with the purpose of pro-
tecting credulous investors against
sales Of worthless stocks and bonds,
have been copied in some measure in
more than half the states of the union.
Twenty-six states are said to have
laws embracing the fundamental prin.
ciple of endeavOring, by constitution
methods, to prevent sales of "get-rich,
quick" or "hy-by-night" securities.
Three cases brought before the su-
preme court and argued together in
October, 1916, concerned the constitu-
tionality of the blue sky laws of Ohio.
South Dakota and Michigan All had
been held unconstitutional by lower
federal courts and their enforcement
by state officials was enioined while
the officials appealed. The original
Ohio law of 1913 was amended Feb. 6,
1914, by the state legislature to meet
alleged defects Of the South Dakota
and Michigan laws. The South Dako-
ia law of March Is, 1915, and the Mich
igan law Of April 8, 1915, repeating the
old 1918 act which had been held void,
were substantially patterned after the
"modeP' blue sky law drawn by a COM
mittee Of the National Association Of
Attorneys General following its 1914
convention.
Two principal points upon which the
Ohio, South Dakota and Michigan acts
were declared void and non-enforce-
able in the lower courts were:
That they unduly burden Interstate
commerce, of which stocks, bonds and
other securities were declared to be
instrumentalities, and that the laws
exceed the states police powers of To-
cal supervision.
South Dakota Law.
The South Dakota statute was de-
clared invalid by federal judges San
born, r. c. Munger and Elliott, Novem-
ber 18, 1915, who restrained Attorney
General Caldwell, Insurance Commits
sioner O'Brien and Public Examiner
Wingfield comprising the state secur.
tiles commission from it's enforcement,
sustaining suit of the Sioux Falls
Stock Yards Co.. and William and
Harry Morley of Sioux City, Ia, sales
men of stock yards securities. The
latter were being prosecuted under the
penal provisions.
The 26 states reported to have blue
sky restrictions are Arizona, Arkan-
sas, California, Connecticut, Florida,
Georgia, Idaho. Iowa, Kansas, Louisi-
ana, Maine, Michigan, Missouri, Mon
tana, Nebraska, North Carolina, North
Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina,
South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Yer
mont, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

Members Of the state legislature

ment of not being able to get shine
or a shave as the result of Bismarck
wearing her law enforcement bonnet
for the third time since Attorney Cen
eral William LANCER has taken hold

Confectionery stores and ice cream
parlors were locked during the entire
day. Taxis operated in violation Of
the blue laws, taking patients from the
stations to the hospitals. Pool halls
and news and cigar stands were pad
locked. The Sunday night crowds re-
tired early after services. There was
no slipping of hot chocolates or boul-
lions.
The introduction of a bill to repeal
the laws, would, it is believed, take
the house and the senate by storm. A
bill, however, was offered last week
which gives incorporated cities the
right to pass on the observance of Sun
day laws.
Representative Kunkel of Fessen.

many, of course, who are willing to

they are rather rabid for immediate
revision of the constitution and in
clined to say unpleasant things of
anyone who dares to breathe a word
of opposition. On the other hand,
there is a very generous seasoning of
hard-headed, careful-thinking, sub

Washington, Jan. 22.-The state de-

situation is an outgrowth of the Cen

Atlantic. A new international compli-
cation thus loomed up.
The two nations are not at an agree
ment, yet, however, in the matter of
armament Germany says that arma.
ment makes a vessel a war vessel and
that the capture of the crew Of such
vessel is justified.
The United States says that defen-

the chances of disagreement are great
