He has introduced a bill i'll the legislature winch would establish state securities commission posed of the state superintendent of banks the treasurer and the attorney general This commission would license all bonseln concerns and at its discre- ,ion withhold as regards the sale or offering for sale of bogus stocks or bonds

 President Roosevelt denounced the treaty the greatest piece of international backmail in history If Panama revOlted and maintained her independence we did The fact that by such recognition country ted with whom could negotiate for the Canal Zone has nothing to do with the justice of the Colombia had held Panama very precarously for and revolution was certain, sooner or later.

BACK UP PITTMAN ACT
