Wildcat Artists
Forsake Virginia
Recent Bluc-Sky Low Causes
General Exodus Of Promoters
to Other Fields.

Holman Willis, OF Roanoke. a MEM
Der OF the House OF Delegates. was in
Richmond yesterday, filling out the
proper forms for registering certain
securities and their promoters under
the recent blue sky law.
Mr.. Willis stated that one day after
the law went into effect he saw thirty
six wildcat" agents check out from
the best hotel In Roanoke and shake
the dust OF Virginia from their feet.
He further stated that Roanoke has
always been hotbcd for the pro
moter's disease: but that the new law
seemed to be causing the State to i'm
prove.
In Roanoke these men have rested by
the score. occupied the best hotels in
the city. with all their luxurious ac-
cessories. and often have made money
by the $1,000 a week. Their chief prey
have been farmers OF some wealth
and prominence" i'm all the surround
ing counties, who have enjoyed becom-
ing inanciers. Butt according to Mr.
Wills. the blue sky law has seen a
sort OF exodus repeated In the Magic
City.
1t Is readily assumed that a similar
situation has been In most Of the cities
and even counties of the State And
II half a hundred have flown the coon
In one city. II is safe 10 say that the
state Is now shy at least ninety and
nine wildcat" artists. who Toasted on
