COURT RULES PLEDGED
STOCK CAN'T BE SOLD
Deposit of Collateral for Mar
gin Defined.

ALBANY. ". Y. Nov. 2s.-The Court
of Appeals in a recent decision involv-
ing the liability OF stock broker TO his
customers has ruled that notice printed
In small type on the firms statement of
transactions for the customers account
does not constitute a contract. In this
opinion the Court of Appeals sustains
the Appellate Division for the First Ju-
dicial Department.
The decision was rendered I'm a suit
brought by Lawrence Heaphy Of New
York against Kerr & Kerr stock brokers
of that city. HeaDhy bought stocks from
Kerr & Kerr upon margin, depositing
other securities az collateral. In Janu-
ary. 1918. when the brokers went into
bankruptcy. Heaphy owed them a little
more than 500. He offered payment to
the brokers' attorney and demanded the
return of his collateral, which was re-
fused. The brokers, according 10 coun-
sci for both parties, had repledged the
stock and It had been sold by the
PLEDGES. The suit was brought by Hea-
ply on the ground that the conversion
Of the stock by unauthorized pledge was
"a wilful and malicious injury to prop
erty and survives the bankruptcy"
The brokers claimed that the rcnledg-
Ing Of the stock was not Illegal IN view
of the fact that that upon each state
ment of purchase or sale given tine GUS
toner there was printed in small type
the following:
1T is hereby mutually understood and
agreed. waiving all notice. that tho sale
or purchase Of all stocks. bonds. securi-
ties or contracts in your account. at pri-
vate or public sale. is authorized, when
such sale or purchase is deemed neces-
sary by us for our protection. and that
all securities deposited for the protec-
tion OF your account may be pledged by
us as collateral to our own loans
The Court of Appeals sustains the Ap-
pellate Division in its ruling that: mo
one has reason 20 expect that In the
mere notice of purchase OF stock the
broker is inveigling him into some
further contract az 10 rights In collateral
which he would not otherwise possess.
The attempt TO procure an i'm
piled consent by reason of such notices
attached to their notice Of purchase OF
stock is not to be commended by courts

HOME RULE FOR ALASKA
IS URGED BY GOVERNOR
Says Long Range Government
Is Big Handicap.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.--More LIBERAL
lied laws with an administration brought
nearer home Is the paramount need OF
Alaska. says Gov. Scott c. Bone in his
first annual report. made public to-day
by the Interior Department. He went
on:
Capital and people are required to
develop the resources of the territory and
until It is made easier for these two
necessary factors to obtain a foothold
the Territory will not progress. Under
the present long range system of govern
ment individual initiative has been
halted and the pioneer spirit manned"
To promote efficiency by minimizing
delays. the Governor recommended that
the administration be centralized at
Juneau, the territorial capital, to the
fullest extent possible. while Govern
rnent supervision be maintained at
Washington with the various bureaus
dealing with the Territory consolidated
under one departmental head. He sue-
gests also that each essential bureau
station a representative at Juneau em-
powered TO act on all matters not affect
ing public policy.
"Obstructions met by capital seeking
investment and by people In quest or
homesteads have been lessened some-
what in recent years." the Govrnor says.
but by no means removed Both capi-
tai and people are entitled to a fairer
chance than they have ever had in the
past"
The Governor recommends:
Liberal mining and land laws framed
20 meet distinctive and divergent con-
ditions in Alaska.
A colonization plan 70 be worked out
in conjunction with the operation OF the
Government railroad. to bring under
cultivation the vast area of agricultural
land in the interior.
improved transportation facilities and
mora equitable freight rates. through
private enterprise IL obtainable and
under Government regulation and con-
troll.
More liberal mail subsidies to enable
the Post office Department 70 function
In Alaska and thus aid in the solution
OF transportation problems.
Continued conservation and safe
guarding of the fisheries in Alaska.
Uninterrupted construction OF roads
and trails throughout the Territory.
Allotment OF at least one-half of the
net revenue derived from the seal i'm
dustry on the Pribilof Islands.
An appropriation OF $500, 90 TO supple
ment the sl55.0o0 fund now available for
the construction OF an administrative
and executive building in Juneau.
Gov. Bone says the Territory is not
growing numerically. its population
having decreased 10000 during the las,
decade, to 5000. and that II has not
progressed or prospered in the last fis-
cal year.
