Commerce Secretary
Guarding Against Any
Misuse Membership

Requests FOR lists Of names for one
purpose or another are constantly
coming In to the Office Of the Cham
per or Commerce and it is up to the
secretary to use judgment in the
granting of these requests. Recently
a request was received for the names
OF some small companies in which
investments could be made as many
investors prefer the larger returns
obtainable from an investment in a
relatively small company to the
small returns derived from invest
ments in the listed stocks of large
concerns" as the letter stated.
The request looked innocent
enough, it came from the Crager
System Inc. of New York City and
the letter head showed a system of
five telephones and a cable address.
Preferring to look into the matter,
before sending any names, the sec
rotary. Mrs. Florence Wallace. made
some inquiries and yesterday learned
from the National Vigilance Com
| mittee of the Associated Advertising
Clubs of the World that the presi-
have been taken into custody and
| IA other principals and statesmen are
| wanted under Federal warrants
charged with fraudulent use of mails
in a stocks 're-loading" scheme in
different cities.
1t seems that the Crager system
| and other similar stock sales organ
| iZations have been constantly on the
lookout for small industrial corpora
| tions in need of money whose stocks
they can offer to the public. A eau
ton is embodied in the communica-
ton from the National Vigilance
| Committee to all chambers of COM
merce. merchants and manufacture
ers associations and all commercial
clubs against giving information to
unknown brokerage houses about To-
cal enterprises.
1t is suggested also that corpora
tions scrutinize carefully the meth
DDS employed by stock selling organ
izations, which seek to handle their
securities. individuals who have
bought stock in some company and
are urged to buy more are also
warned to make sure not only that
the representations made by stock
statesmen are sponsored by the COM
pany whose shares are offered blu,
also that the representations are true
and that the treasury of the com
pany will benefit to thexfulest pos
sible extent by the additional funds
put up by the investor.
