New York.-The inner philosophy of
the buccaneer oil promotion company
in the business of selling stocks in
stead Of oil Is neatly exposed In a
confidential" letter received the other
day by reputable New York Stock
Exchange firm, says the New York
Sun. The writer, an officer of "here
today ID gone tomorrow" Western
taking corporation, was trying to get a
New York broker to put out its securi-
ties, and obviously thought he was adj
dressing firm of traders as shady as
himself.
you know" he wrote, "the heavy
cost is in finding new clients. Your
profit is made in selling them repeated
ly the same stock as the dividend and
price advance"
He then offered to pay commission
Of 33 1-3 per cent, under which agree
ment 81 of every So paid by the in
weston would stay in the hands of the
stock peddler. The generous "oil" man
continued:
1.-THE price of the stock is So share
1t will be advanced to 1925 within the
next 80 days, after which it will be
gradually raised to SO. These addi-
tional raises are the best methods
known to sell stock to clients"
Shares Are VaIueIess.
The stock had no value; there was
nothing behind 1t. The price was an
arbitrary figure fixed by the company.
The proposed raises would have been
arbitrary. If buyer had tried to sell
the company would not have bought
the stuff back at any price. The COM
pany was merely intent on getting a
broker to go shares with 1t In kidding
the public into snatching at the securi-
ties by 'the best methods known to
sell stock to clients" Reputable
brokers do not even answer such let
ters. Nor will they allow their Gus
toners to buy stocks which have the
faintest odor of trickery If they can
prevent 1t. The other day man who
lives in a suburb Of New York got a
hot tip on a new oil stock recently in
troduced on the curb but not listed. He
hustled into town and asked a broker
whom he knew to buy 500 shares.
"Can't do it," said the broker.
81 thought you could buy anything"
said the cOmmuter.
"Certainly / can buy anything but
shall have to decline to take your or
der for this stock. / don't know any
thing positive about the company, but

something of the people who are put

Girls in Tight Skirts
Protest Safety Mirrors

Los Angeles, Cal.-The little
safety mirrors on cars of the
Los Angeles Railway company
have been attacked by the fair
sex OF the city and already
number of protests against the
mirrors have been lodged with
officials of the company.
Fashion, which has decreed
the tight skirt, is the real cause
of the complaint, and the women
declare they are embarrassed by
the stare of the motormen as
they climb aboard the cars.
On the other hand, officials Of
the railway company have filed
counter-complaint, charging
that the tight skirts cause undue
delay Of the cars In addition
they say the motormen merely
do their duty In watching the
mirrors to make certain passen-
gers are on the cars before
starting.
