Representative Denison is drafting
a bill with special reference to the
District Of Columbia. His national
law would prevent the use Of inter-
state commerce agencies by statesmen
of fraudulent or highly speculative
stock to do business in any state
where the state law forbade their
traffic. That general law in no way
protects the District: in fact. it would
leave the District more than ever at
the mercy OF the unscrupulous pro-
moters.
The Focht bill is favored by the in
vestment bankers and brokers. The
bankers do not feel that the bill Rep
resentative Denison is dxafting is

bill IL objected to by some on the
ground that 1t is not sufficiently spe-

Some of the objections urged
against the proposed legislation sim
ply serve to emphasize it's wisdom in
not attempting to lay down any hard
and fast rules which would specifical-
iy define the conditions which the
promoter of an issue OF shares could
comply with and which would then
offer no further restriction on his
issue. That Is precisely what this
bill is intended not to do. On the
contrary, 1t has been made just as
broad as 1t possibly could be made
for the very purpose OF detecting.
preventing and Furnishing fraud. no
matter what form that fraud might
take. The mere enactment OF hide
bound rules is q perfectly futile thing,
so far as preventing skillful fraudu-
lent schemes is concerned. Fraudu-
lent promoters would like nothing
half 50 well as to have hide-bound
and technical definitions laid down
for them. The very definition would
give to the crafty just what he want
ed. for it would tell precisely how to
evade the law"
So, although the authorities disa-
gree as to the details Of the bill.

that a "blue sky" law for the Dis

Up until the 18th and last round

a clever feint and then crossed a

the Australian on his back. Lewis

Bookmakers Are Sued
By Executors OF Man
Who Lost On Races

SYDNEY, N. S. w, July 12-(Asso
ciated Press Mail)-A new complica
ton in the operations of betting in
Victoria has been created by a de
mand, which is being made upon a
number of leading Melbourne book
makers, for refunds totalling G600C
which had been paid by chick in settle.
ment of wagers.
Acting on behalf of the executors
of the estate of a mar who was noted
a few years ago for the extent of his
betting transactions. a Melbourne firm
OF solicitors has sued a number of
bookmakers for the repayment to the
estate of money paid by the better by
check to ringmen.
Apparently the action was taken un
der the English Gaming Act of 1885
interpreted by the courts to provide
that money paid by check in settle
ment of bets was recoverable. Several
actions to obtain the repayment of
losses have been successful under this
act. To overcome the difficulty which
greatly affected betting credit in Eng
land, a bill has been introduced into
the British parliament to amend the
gambling act by multiplying any future
suits for the recovery of such money.
In one important respect book
makers in England differ from those
in Victoria and the other parts of the
Commonwealth. In England the ring
men are not licensed and do not have
to pay any government fees but in
Victoria the bookmakers are licensed
and have to pay licensing and other
fees to the government. The claims
being made on the bookmakers now
are for money which was lost at
Flemington on Derby Day in 1918.

HAIKU AND MANDARINS DO BATTLE
FOR FIRST SERIES CHAMPIONSHIP
ON FAIR GROUNDS DIAMOND SUNDAY

Will the first series of the Maui
Major League circuit close Sunday
afternoon?
Every fan or fannette of the ma

self same question. 1t comes down
TO, will Haiku repeat their last vic.
tory owe the Chinese? Or will
Engles team prove the stumbling block
in Haiku's path to untrammeled vic
tory"
The Chinese team appears stronger
now than during the middle of the
series. They are batting at over a
300 clip and fielding practically error
less. Manager Bill Engle expects to
win Sundays game, according to a
statement made by him Wednesday
afternoon. Strengthened by the re-
turn from the mainland of Wicke, the
mainstem of the Chinese pitching
staff, the team looks good on paper.
Better than at any team in the season
in fact Haiku's defeats in Honolulu by
the Liberty House and Standard Oil
mines have brought a greater ray of
hope and an outward display of con
fidence by the Chinese that has been
hidden since the unmerciful drubbing
handed them by Haiku at their sec
ond meeting. Manager Engle's words
were 1--WE are going in to win, and
we will win"
Haiku Confident
On the other hand Haiku has the
confidence that comes only with such
a string of straight v%ictorys as that
team has accumulated. Not a player
on the team harbors a single thought
of defeat. They have taken the
Chinese's number once and they swear
by the sunsets rays on Haleakala
they will do it again. They have a
championship team, a team that works
together and thinks together and the
smile that dominates the c~ountenance

erman' introduced to Southern Cali.
fornia recently when a party of
sportsmen hoped off in a flying boat,
sailed to the fishing grounds, and
spotting their game from an altitude
of 500 feet, landed and caught 200.
pounds of assorted varieties of fish.
Plotted by Paul Haaren, a local
aviator, the big six-passenger flying
boat, filled with flying fishermen"
and with tackle suitable for landing
game fish aboard, nosed into the air.
After a twenty minute run to Avalon.
Santa Catalina Island, where the
party dropped for luncheon, the party
headed for the San Clemente FISHING
fields. Within a few minutes a school
of albacore was sighted from an att
tude of 500 feet. Haaren brought the
seaplane to rest Immediately over the
fish, visible because of the c~learness
of the water.
Two lines were cast and the flying
boat TAXED over the surface trolling
the bait. Results were instantaneous,
two strikes of albacore furnishing ex-
element for twenty minutes before
the fish were brought to gaff.
Having taken their share of that
school, the flying fisherman" took to
the air again and located another
1nny tribe within a few minutes. The
ship was brought to the surface and
once again the fisherman got busy.
Two more albacore and an eighty
pound shark rewarded their efforts
this time, and having enough of the
sport for one day the sportsmen
hoped back to their homes.
