are working on a percentage basis, re-
ceiving Is per cent of their gross sales
of stock One salesman who is work
ing out of Sioux City is said to have
made more than $4,000 selling stock
in the last year. #
More than 100000 has been
brought into Sioux City by statesmen
selling stock in legitimate enterprises
started by Sioux City business men
on stock promotion basis, according
to John Magoun, president OF the
Northwestern National bank. One or
ganization alone has sold over $1,000
600 worth of stock to people in this vi
cinity, Mr.. Magoun said. ,.t......
1t is impossible to estimate the
amount that has been taken out OF
Sioux City, bankers said. They admit
ted that people are buying large blocks
of stock in various parts OF the coun'
try. .-s.
One story is told of the sale of $75,-
900 worth of newly issued oil stock to
purchasers at Sibley, Iowa. Accord.
ing to the story the salesman sent
ahead cards to persons who had al
ready purchased stock. This card in.
formed that he would be in Sib-
ley on certain date. It is customary
to give former purchasers an oppor-
tunfty to buy additional stock if they
so desire, he is said to have told them.
When he arrived at Sibley there was
line a block long waiting to get to
him and purchase the stock. Only $751;
900 Of this additional stock was as
signed to the Osceola people, he an.
nounced. 1t was all sold in one day.
