It was most notable and happy gathering. County Attorney John R.

ID CALL HALT ON WILD CAT
 PROPOSITION
Secretary Lane Calls Attention to the Fact That Sharks Are Taking Liberty Bonds for Bad Securities
Br Reriew Leased WIrel

WASHINGTON, July 24-PrOpz- ganda educating the public to the statue of Liberty bonds as investments also has served to aid the Notation of many times mOEe wild cat securities than in peace times. This was assert ed today by Louis B. Franklin, diree- tor of Liberty loan organization for the treasury, at a conference of gov ernment agencies and other Organiza- tiOns, called by the capital issues com mittee to consider means of suppress ing highly speculative promotion ana development enterprises during the war.
 Other speakers said the sale of wild cat stocks and bonds has increased many fold within the last year, owing to high wages and the Willingness ot promoters to take Liberty bonds in payment. A nationwide system 0s minimizing this form of fraud was ar ranged. with the cooperation of the American Bankers association, Invest ment Bankers association, United States chamber of commerce, Associat- ed Advertising clubs, and government departments.
 MT. Franklin said the success of Liberty loan campaigns had taught promoters new lessons in the market ing of their securities. These men had virtually thrown away their old sucker lists" he said, and solicited thousands of wage earners with the plea that government requirements for oil, coal and other products de- manded that patriotic citizens lean money for development of new wells, mines or factories.
 Between eighty and ninety of the fraudulent securities being marketed are being given in exchange for Lib erty bonds, which are sold by the pro- moters, said Mir Franklin.
 Between S25O, 100000 and S5n3,0O0,- 900 of fraudulent securities not passed an by the capital issues committee and not recognized by organized invest ment bankers, have been marketed in the United States within the last year said Richard Morse, representing tEe Investment Bankers association. This sum is lost both to the individual pur- chasers and to the government, he eX- plained.
 These wild cat securities have not been submitted to the capital issues committee for approval, although the committee is authorized to pass on all issues of stocks, bonds or notes of more than S100,000, determining whether they contribute directly to war purposes. If approval is given 1t does not imply specific approval of the value of the securities, and the com mittee has no power of compulsion.
 To meet this situation, the agencies represented at the conference agreed to cooperate with a national vigilance committee of bankers and business men to be organized by the capital issues committee. Wild cat issues will be investigated and systematic efforts will be made to direct public opinion against them, and to educate small in vestors concerning the risks involved.

CAPTAIN MEETS RAIDER
CRv Review Leased wirel

GLOUCESTER, Mass, July A. Captain William Price of the fishing schooner Elizabeth King. which ar rived here tonight, reported an en- counter Sunday with what he believes was a German raider, off Nantucket.
 Captain Price said the steamer ap- preached within 100 feet of the Eliza beth King, keeping forward and aft guns trained on the schooner. T eX- pected he would hail us" said Captain Price. "but he did not, so 1 asked him through a megaphone if he had seen any fishing vessels in that vicinity. An officer shouted back something in foreign language that ncne of us understood"
 The steamer was about 2500 tons and looked as if it had ben at sea long time. Two unusually high wire less masts rose from the decks. It bore no name or home port and flew mo flag. It had been camoufiaged ap- parently, but the paint was nearly washed of and the sides were covered with ircn rust There was a large crew aboard, Captain Price said
 The incident occurred between $ and g o'clock in, the morning. This was three hours before a German sub marine appeared off Orleans on the Cape Cod shore and attacked a tug boat and its tow of barges. The posi- ton given by Captain Price places the steamer in the lane of transatlantic travel.
 The sinking of the schooner Rcber: and Richard of the Gloucester fishing fleet Monday by a German submarine has not intimidated fishermen here. Schooners have gone to sea since the news was received and the captain de clared they will keep on fishing in snite of enemy submarines

But the allies have made gains.
 The main railroad now is useless so far as the Germans are concerned, while the heavy guns of the allies are reaching many of the wagon roads which the enemy has fought so hard to retain. The Germans can obtain limited supplies but it is believed that these will not be sufficient to warrant keeping the big army in the salient.
