Tight Money Causes Action

COLUMBUS. Ohio. Aug. 1s-Director
of Commerce W. Fl. Phips is about to
launch a crusade TO rid the State OF
fake investment schemes and similar
frauds.
The campaign is to be made upon
orders of Governor Davis as one OF the
first activities Of the newly created de
partment. New and rigid regulations
governing the sale of securities in Ohio
are being worked out and VIII be an
nounced shortly.
The "blue-sky" regulations have been
critized as having given only very
limited protection to investors in the
past
The housecleaning is expected to start
next week when the Chatfield- Faris BIZ,
giving the Securities Bureau added pow
ers and providing new penalties, viii be
come law.
Because Of the poor yield Of wheat in
this section Of the state farmers in
many instances have been unable to
pay off their obligations TO the country
banks, which in turn have had to ask
their Columbus correspondents TO renew
the notes they have been holding. Ac-
cording to local bankers, this situa-
ton has resulted in consjdera Die
tightening OF the local money market
Dizziness in the coal industry is also
causing a big drain I'm the Columbus
banks for funds. shippers Of lake coal
have tied up lots Of money In wages
and freights to the upper lake docks
The slow movement Of the coal from the
docks 10 the interior of Minnesota and
Canada has not brought the expected
return in cash and lake shippers have
been asking for additional funds to
carry them.-Copyrigh 1921. by Public
