Boston, Oct S.--The annual loss to
the American public through the pur-

timated at $500, 100000 by Charles j.

per cent of the stock offered to the pub

have "blue sky" laws some are so
loose that practically everything get
through"
Roy C. osgood of Chicago, presi-
dent of the Investment Bankers as
ISOLATION, told the commission that
only FIVE per cent of the stock issues
were bad. He said that investment
bankers do not oppose reasonable reg

Dull pains in the back, often under

LLOYD GEORGE ON AMERICA.
Conflict of Parties Here Has Prevented
Peace with Germany.

Llandudno, Wales, Oct. s.--Premier
Lloyd George in a speech here to-day
declared that "the conflict of parties in
America has led to the result that they
have not yet signed the treaty of
peace with Germany He asserted that
il there had been conflict like that
in Great Britain the latter would have
had no peace and there would have
been no treaty.
''There are some who criticize the
treaty of Versailles" he said. Better
that than a state of war should be
going for years and nothing done"
He added that there were some people
who imagined that TO ignore disagree
able facts was proof of exalted princi-
pies.
Every belligerent country except the
United States, said the premier, had
been driven to form a coalition govern
ment in order to get the best men of
all parties together 10 save the nation.
The United States was not so much
involved in the war as the countries
of Europe, he pointed out. 1t came in
late and then put forth colossal eff.
forts. Its assistance was crucial and
determnant but il dod not have the
time to make the same sacrifices as
the other belligerent countries. The
burdens Of war in America were heavy,
but not comparable to those of Eu.
rope.
