STORM CLOUD GROUP
 MAY BE RECLAIMED
1snecial to The Review,

PRESCOTT, March 23.-What is to be. probably. enc of the biggest mine movements ever undertaken in this field is that action announced this week whereby the Storm Cloud group, in Hassayampa district. near Senator, goes into an active state again after a susrension of over ten years.
 Behind this important movement is the O'Brien Mines Syndicate of Canada. which has concluded unwater- ing and retimbering the old workings, J. c. Dickenson, a member of this firm. concluding a final examination recently and stating that the property would he revived at once
 Pr. Dickenson has returned to Co- bait. and before leaving made all aI- rangements to start up just as soon as roads are opened It is expected that before April 1. the famous old property will again be active, but on a scale far mere elaborate in practical mining work than has ever been known. due to the strong financial re sources of the owners and their es- tablished rating in mining as among the largest in the country, as well as the most successful. This syndicate also is closely controlled, and in it's extensive operations both in Canada and the United States. conducts its affairs independently and without stocking of shares. They acquired the Stcrm Cloud after the death of the originsl owner. nearly ten years ago. but did not decide 10 reopen the old workings until last autumn. when con- ditions resulted in favorable action beinr taken to resume. The coming into this field of this well known nm ing firm is of more than ordinary in terest and for the locality selected large benefits are anticipated.

COMMISSION PUTS CURB ON WILDCAT PROMOTION STUFF
State Body Rules Men Given Permits to Sell Stock Must Advertise Such Permission As Prescribed.
Special to The Review)

PHOENIX, March 23.-Refusing longer to be made the innocent tool to further the sale of stock or securi- ties of various enterprises in Ari' zona. the state corporation commis- sion has taken drastic action to pre- vent such schemes in the future.
 IngeniCusly worded advertisements have been placed in the newspapers by concerns urging the sale of their stock or securities, it is stated, in which it has been made to appear that the particular stock has the in- dorsement of the members of the corporation commission.
 By a resolution passed by the conI- mission this week it was made im- perative that all companies selling stock in this state under permits is- sued by the corporation commission, and all concerns that in the future received such permits and which ad- vertise such stock or securities for sale must place at the head of the advertisements a plain statement to the effect that the corporation com mission does not recommend for pur- chase the stock or securities of that corporation thus advertised.
 The resolution is as follows:
 "Whereas. chapter TX. title g, re- yised statutes of Arizona, 1913, civil code. prescrihes the manner and form for the conduct of the business of investment companies; and
 Whereas, paragraph 2263 of said chapter provides that every permit granted in conformity with the pro- visions thereof shall recite that the corporation commission in no wise recommends the stock. bonds of other securities to be offered for sale by such investment company; and
 "Whereas, it is possible for the ad- ver.isements of investment com ranies to be so cunningly and ingeni- ,ously phrased as to virtually nullify the spirit and intent of the above proviso and make it appear that this commission recommends the sale O. its stock; and
 Whereas, in the interest of the public welfare we believe that adver- tisements capable of such misinter- pretation or misconception should be prohibited; therefore be it
 Resolved, that, effective at once, all investment companies now operau- inc under permits heretofore granted and all companies hereafter given permits shall carry in bold type as the first paragraph of every adver- tisement published In the newspapers or other periodicals or printed or written and circulated in any manner whatsoever. the following statement:
 "'Arizona Corporation Commission Permit No. -.
 "sThe Arizona corporation commis- sion does not recommend the stock. bonds or other securities offered for sale by this company.

the head OF a national dope ring. .
Harry Jacobs and John C. Good
