| continues Chairman Quincy.
Its terms clearly exclude any for
elgn corporations Incorporated after
the passage of this act, for the words
are any public utility now organized
ana existing and doing business in
the state or hereafter incorporatcd
under and b VIRTUE of the laws of
the State Of Maine, may issue stocks.

lted purposes for which alone Sc
culltles may be issued. If it is held
10 include foreign corporations, it's
erect is to restrict the purposes for
winch foreign corporations may issue
securities regardless what their own
states may have provided in the
charters creating such foreign cor
porations. l am not persuaded
therefore, that our legislature intend
Cd TO make these provisions applica-
Die to all corporations, whether for.
elsn or domestic, existing and doing
business when the act became Of
1ectlve in 1913, but to exclude from,
us operation foreign corporations
thereafter organized, thus restrict
ing the foreign corporations existing
IN 1913, but giving free rein in the
issue of securities to those subse-
qucntly organized.
TO my mind the meaning of the
section is not obscure, if applica-
Die solely to such domestic cornora-
tlons as were then existing and do
ing business by virtue of the laws
or Maine and such as might be
thereafter incorporated under and
by virtue of the laws of the Same
state. Our legislature, it seems TO
me- after making general provisions
1or rates. accounting, service, reports
and other details applicable to all

lofeign existing and doing business
IN the state, turns its attention to

be done by the State armory COM
mission until mother year, but it is
understood that the members of the
commission are very favorab BILE to-
ward the erection of a building here
if the necessary steps can be com

The beginning of the project rests
with the city, which must furnish the
site and appropriate minimum OF
O.OO0. The State maximum OF APP
propriation is like amount, but
once the building is completed the
State furnishes it, heats and main
tains it so that the initial expense is
the only one to be borne by the city.
The site must be chosen by the city
and it must receive the stamp of ap-
proval of the armory commission.
A minimum of 200 square feet is re-
ouired for a building according TO
specifications.
In other cities the armorles are
available not only as headquarters
and recreation centers for the mem
