MISUNDERSTANDING
:. OF ALL Securities
Many Reasons For Securing Rec

Through Stock Exchange

There is agitation from time to time,
here as in other communities, on the
advisability Of having all stocks listed
on the stock exchange so that market
value for such stocks can be deter
mined at such times and whenever it
may be required. 4
Answering the question. why should

number Of reasons which show the ad.
vantages which accrue to the commun-
