When the proprietor "a one Of the

city Of Salzberg recently saw 4, we'll
dressed young couple walk into his
store he had visions Of profitable
deal. Consequently. when the young
man, who introduced himself as "En-
gineer Koerner," asked to see some
rings. Herr Sikan spread out the I'm
est he had.
Engineer Koerner" picked out two
solitaires, valued at 35,OOO,OOO crowns
which figures out about $500 In real
money. explaining that he was mere
ly acting as agent for a wealthy
friend, too busy to spend time in such
matters, to whom he must show the
rings before closing the transaction.
Handing the jeweler a bundle Of
checks as an advance payment and
courteously requesting his companion
to await his return. Engineer Koer-
ner" left the store.
Hours passed, still the young wom-
an sat waiting for her cavalier. Herr
Sikan finally grew suspicious and
called up the banks and the police.
Then it turned out, says the story in
the Berner Tagwacht, that the young
woman knew little more about her
companion than did the jeweler, hav-
ing only made his acquaintance few
days before in Vienna coffee house.
The police knew whole lot about
Engineer Koerner," however, quickly
identifying him as Frederick Schiller
twenty-three-year-ol barber and cafe
pianist, with a long record of similar
jobs, says the New York times. When
arrested Engineer Koerner" had one
of the rings in his possession, as well
as 100000 crowns for which he had

STRAIGHT TALKS
With AUNT EMMY
On Investing in Mortgages

Aunt Emmy, what do you think Of
mortgages as Investments" asked
Ethel.
First mortgages, generally speak
ing. are sound investments, but not
al first mortgages are good" Aunt
Emmy replied. You must exerciss .
care and discretion. II you know all
about the property, or II you are deal
ing with a financial concern that has
. reputation for success and honesty,
you should be safe. But 1t Il well TO
seek advice before investing Go to
your bank, talk the whole thing over
and be guided by their advice. Real
estate transactions are tricky. Better
be safe than sorry. II there is any
question as to party walA or IL the
building on property should be even
few inches over the lot line, you
would undoubtedly have trouble.
Even guaranteed mortgages should
not be bough: on faith. Never buy a
mortgage without knowing the value
Of the real estate 1t covers and of the
property in the vicinity. Be sure a
good lawyer looks out for your inter
c
is too much risk in buying without
every safeguard.
Remember that taxes and insur-
ance must be paid regularly when
they are due. You must know that
they are paid, and remember, too,
that the property you lend money on
should be worth considerably more
than you are lending"
What about second MORTGAGES,
Aunty, don't they earn more than first
mortgagesw inquired Ethel.
Sometimes they do. Second mort
cages are good investments under GER
tain conditions. But It IL not ad-
visable for an investor of limited
means to buy them. In case the nrst
mortgage should be forsclosed, the
holder Of the second mortgage should
be in a position to protect his inter-
ests by being able to buy the frst
mortgage. That means you would
have to have money on hand"
"Oh, Aunty." exclaimed Ethel, you
rather frighten me about MORTGAGES"
mo, my dear. don't feel that way"
said Aunt Emmy. "lt's all = matter
Of care and knowledge Of conditions.

BANKERS VIEW ON CO.
OPERATIVE MARKETING

The attitude Of the American Bank
ers Association on cooperative mar
keting favors proper organization to
facilitate the orderly movement OF
farm products, but holds that the Co
operatives are as amenable to econo-
mic laws as any form Of business ana
cannot be used to gain special bene-
fits for the farmer contrary to tie In
auences OF supply and demand and
other normal factors. This view was
formulated recently by Frank W. Sim
monds of the Association before the
National Council of Farmers Co-opera-
tive and Marketing Associations .,
Washington. 5
"It would be unfortunate for the
farmer II he becomes imbued with
the idea that cooperative marketing
in itself is a panacea for all agricul-
tural ills," Mr.. Simmonds said. "Co-
operative marketing, well organized
and wisely managed. can be most
helpful in solving market problems. 1t
may prevent untimely dumping, 1t may
secure better credit facilities, 1t may
extend existing markets, 1t may even
create new markets, but obviously its
operations will be as amenab,e to eco.
nomic law as those Of other business
enterprises.
What II Cannot Do
cooperative marketing cannot pre-
vent other countries with cheaper land
and labor from selling N foreign
marts at q price uuattractive to us.
1t cannot successfully override the
law of supply and demand or main
tain for any length Of time an arti-
ncially high price by Withholding d
product from market or unduly limit
ing production. Sane, orderly market
ing must be accompanied by sane, or
derly thinking.
