LOOSE LAW COG IS HELP FOR
 W|LDCATTER
CORPORATION COMMIS- SIONER POINTS OUT A LEEWAY THAT ALLOWS DISHONEST BROKERS TO FLEECE THE PUBLIC.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)


 Conflict between the investment and brokerage laws of Arizona are responsible for the leeway that al- lows wildcat mining promoters to get in their nefarious work, accord ing to Corporation Commissioner F. A. Jones in statement at Phoenix. Steps to correct this lost motion are described in his statement, which fol lows in part: .fa.g
 "The reason that various wildcat ting companies have been able to fleece the public of this state, in such way as to leave the corpora ton commission very little recourse is that the investment laws and the brokerage laws in the state are ill conflict. The commission cannot say that anything is not possible in the way of mineral discovery and de- velopment, and must therefore grant permits to companies of apparently reliable personnel. The difficulty is in compelling them to spend the money received from stock sales in legitimate development, instead of putting it in their pockets by means of evasion of the law. To remedy this defect ill control, the commits sion has recommended to the legisla- ture such action as may be necessary to remedy this condition. The re- commendation is contained in our supplementary annual report, and re- commentators and reads as fol- lows:
 Since the passage of the Invest ment Company Act, there was pass ed, March 8, 1917, by the third legis- lature, what is known as Chapter 30, Senate Bill No. 63, relating to brok- CTS the effect of which is that upon payment to the secretary of state of $200OO and the filing of bond of $5,00000, any one may secure brok- CTS license It is provided that the state bank examiner may prescribe the manner in which records of brok- CTS may be kept and may make ex- animation of the financial condition of brokers operating in the state. The result of this law is that brok- CTS assume that they have authority to sell th2 securities of any company in any amount, under any terms or conditions without applying for and securing a permit under the Invest ment Company laws. An investment company may get a permit to sell its securities for say 10c a share with commission limited to 20 per cent. and may thereafter sell all of its stock authorized to be sold in the permit to a broker who, in turn, may sell it to the public for any price that he can get for it. Many trans actions nave so been handled We Have had instances where foreign | companies have appeared before the commission with an application to sell stock and it has gone to brokers and We have been confronted within a few days with page advertisements | of brokers offering stock of compan- ies of very questionable value. Con- sideration should be given to the matter of operations of brokers with relations to the investment company law We urge a careful review of our investment company law with a view of making it possible for the to more thoroughly [ the interests of the invest ing public without, however, hafnptr- f ing legitimate development" ''-'' 'o 1

Preventing Cracks in Pavements,

At q recent meeting of the American Society for Municipal Improvements held at Buffalo, an interesting paper was read on frost-proof foundations for hard-surfaced pavements, in whicn it was suggested that the sub-grade should be laid with a course of hollow tile of say four-inch height, overlaid with q foundation of two to four inches of concrete. On this, the paw ing material may be laid. The tile acts as q non-conductor of heat, pre- venting the frost from penetrating to the sub-grade and also acts as a drain for moisture. Should frost reach the sub-grade, the tile will break under the pressure and 10 insure it's break ing, the tile may be scored at the bot tom. The overlying concrete will bridge the breaks in the hollow tile This will prevent upheavals of the pavement.-Scientific American.

WHERE THE MONEY WENT.

A strict accounting is kept Of the distribution of every penny subscrib- cd for the relief of Jewish sufferers from the war in the Eastern Euro bean zones The money Is spent through the American Jewish Relief Committee, of New York City, Of which Alfred Lehman, noted fnan- cier. is treasurer. Distribution Is made through the State Department at Washington and by United States consuls and American agents of the committee in Europe.
 America is called upon to raise s35 .000 900 this year for relief work to prevent the starving of millions of Jewish people. Arkansas is asked 10 raise in the great non-sectarian Jew ish relief drive. May 1926, the sum Of s150000 as the contribution of the commonwealth 10 this great cause.
 This is the first time the Jewish people of the United States have ask ed others than Jews to contribute to this fund. In 1917 s1O,oOO,O00 was i0AFtIs pl dNtitdiiN Of DEN Ss J ulIIS 7lAD- senwald Of Chicago, himself giving a million dollars. Tn 1918 nearly SIS, oO000 was raised, and now with the signing Of the ar1-listicc' and the ap- proach of peace. America is asked to give s35. 900 000.
 The distribution of funds from March 31. 1918, 10 March l. 1919. ac- cording to a recent report of the American Jewish Relief Committee, was as follows:

TO BUILD ON MODERN LINES
Australian Authorities Recognize Ne. cessity of Town Construction
 Along the Latest ideas.

The great mind of France, renas- cent. is manifesting itself in the field of town planning. She has a central town-planning commission with sub- agencies throughout France, for the rebuilding and replanning of not only the cities destroyed by the guns, but also the others outside the war zone. Belgium's parliament, sitting in France today, has passed a city-plan- ming law, in readiness for the peace which will restore her to place in the sun. What an example, and an inspiration for us who sit here in peace and security.
 America has shown us a splendid example in the organization of her military towns. The town planners were mobilized under Mir. Olmstead's leadership and they co-operated with the military and engineering experts in building training camps for millions of soldiers. She has spent f25,0O0,00O on Is model military cities on the most modern lines. Housing and planning are going hand in hand under the United States governments encour. agement and supervision.
 If for no other reason, the calling of a conference is justified by the fact that the government of Queens land has made our deliberations clus- ter round the welfare of the returned soldiers, and has invited us to apply the resources of the town planner to the problem of making those who have fought for our lives and liberties hap pier than they could possibly be under the old conditions. We eagerly re- spond to this invitation and I hope that out of our deliberations may come practical and helpful schemes that will assist the returned soldier.-Sir Sam Hughes.

PLAN THE WAR GARDEN NOW
More Food Than Ever Before Should Be Raised by Amateur Growers
 This Year.

The ending of the war has placed additional obligations on the Amercan people. We have not only our friends the allies to feed, but our former ene- mics must also be kept from starva- tion.
 The larger part of the people of the evacuated regions are destitute; they must have food and this country is the only place it may be had in suf ficient quantities. This means that We will be asked to get along with less meats, fats, grains and sugar and make up the difference with things we can grow in our own gardens. The home gardens of America must be re- lied upon for 8 larger proportion of our living than ever before.
 Potatoes, beets, carrots. peas, corn and tomatoes are among the most i'm portant garden crops from food standpoint. Radishes, lettuce, onions, cucumbers, turnips. squash, cabbage, caulifower, spinach, parsnips, egg plants, peppers, etc, add to the va riety.
 Potatoes, peas, beets and carrots can be planted almost as soon as the frost is out of the ground, and then can be followed by the more tender crops as soon as the ground has be- come reasonably warm.
 When there is sufficient room an asparagus bed should be planted. also rhubarb and the small fruits, particu- larly raspberries.
 Larger grounds afford room for grapes, blackberries, entrants, goose berries. strawberries and possibly few apples, peaches. pears, cherries and plumS-and the children especial ly enjoy and thrive on plenty of fresh fruit.

w. G. Stahl of Little Ruk, who wss employed by Commits sioners Sims, Young and Her. ron, to draw up the plans for the hard surface road to connect the Prairie County line with the Lit tle<Rock-Lonoke pike, was here Monday night. He has the plans about completed and as soon as he goes over them for verificA- tion will turn them over to the Com mlSSionerS so that the as sessorS can get to work on their part of the program. This work will not take long and 1t will only be a short time till the bonds can be placed or the market and the work of building can be started.
 The recent rains have greatly retarded the rice sowing in this section. Only about half the crop has been put in up to this time, but as the ground is all in good shape it will not take long to complete the planting of the bal ance of the crop. There will be greatly increased acreage this year.

The Veterans Hold Up
The veteran nfield of the Giants, over which many

Bobbie Veach hoisted one into the
right field stands for home run. He
had barely settled himself on the
bench when Henry Heilman hoisted
one into the left field bleachers for a
second home rum. They came so fast
that the crowd gaspcd.
But again the Yanks battled back
Plpp dashed hit to right field and got
to second when Shorten juggled the
ball: Pratt sacrificed. Then the noted
Italian warrior, Ping Bodie (Francisco
Plzzo!a), hurled himself into the
field and Pipp scored the run that tied
BY this time the fans were tearing UP
their straw hats and hurling the frag-
ments into the battlefield.
1t looked as though the Yanks might
win in the ninth. Fewster got a base
on balls and went to second on Peckin-
paugh's sacrifice. Baker was purposely
passed, while the multitude waxed
peevish. Lewis popped to Jones and
Pipp popped to Heilman. Tie game
went the extra inning.
Young got base on balls in the
tenth. Tyrus Raymond Cobb crashed
two-bagger to right. Veach was
passed purposely. 1t was fatal strate-
gy. With the bases filled, Henry He'll
man drove a home run against the
centre field WALL clearing the bases
and scoring four runs with nobody out.
1t occurred to Miller Huggins at this
stage of the proceedings that it might
De a good idea to take Quinn out. 1t
hnally. percolated the midget bean of
the midget manager that Quinn could
be nit that afternoon. With this won
derful discovery Pete Schneider went
into the box and gave Shorten a base
on balls. Jones popped out to Pipp.

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 2.-Brooklyn is
farlng better on this Western tour
than on its last trip in this section
The Dodgers came here to-day in an
entirely different . makeup. Thev
looked like new team in trimming
the Cardinals by to score. TheV
played snappy game of ball and
looked like the winners all the way.
Leon Cadore, who has braced con-
slderably within the last fortnight
IN his pitching duties, hurled effect
ively against the locals to-day. He cot
plenty of competition from the Cuban
Iuero and he was made to travel at
top speed the whole distance. But he
persisted in his good work to the end
and nosed out the victory. He cot ~ ~
decision because he kept his hits be+ :
ter scattered than Tuero and he showeo
better in the pinches.
Zach Wheat was a big factor IN
Brooklyn's victory. He made three
hits, two Of which figured in tho scor-
ing, and ne played strongly on the de-
fence. The Robins got away to a ono
run lead by putting over tally in the
hrst period. Olson singled, but .John-
ston and Griffith were thrown on+
Olson making third on the outs zach
Wheat hit through the box and Olson
scored. Myers famed. '0''
In the seventh Wheat made his +h;rd
straight hit by clouting a douhle nuar -
first Myers sacrificed and What
came the rest of the distance on
Konetchy's hit. Honey stole second nd
and continued to third on Clemons,s
wild throw. Ward was safe on Horn

caught off first and NJ. Wheat prounds
