present force in Office, I further
suggest that there be left TO this COM
mittee or to the commission who may
have the appointive power under the
new act the naming of the officers
who shall make up the first police
force under the act.
In my inaugural of two years ago
l made brief reference to the Ward
system. The Council Of the past two
years has carried out the suggestion
then made so faithfully and with
such satisfactory results that | VEN
ture to quote what was then said for
the benefit of the new members Of
this Council.
we elect our Council under the
Ward system. This system has been
criticised on the ground that the rep
rasentatives from a ward are some
times willing to sacrifice the interests
of the city for that of the ward.
When that is done it Is due to false
conception. 1t is the duty of the rep
resentatives of the several wards to
present the needs of their particular
ward. Those needs should then be
considered in the light of the interest
of the whole city. Work should be
done where it can serve the greatest
need. Such a policy and spirit means
fair treatment to every part of the
city. Any other policy must result
in injustice. He serves his ward best
who serves his city best"
| feel sure that the foregoing voices
the sentiment of this Council
We are all pledged to a business
administration an administration
whose only purpose is the betterment
OF Augusta. Such n purpose pre-
cludes us from looking at any matter
involving the City's interests either
from an individual or partisan stand
point We must consider all matters
as representatives Of all the citizens.
Such policy means cooperation
and cooperation means results. The
City is watching US. II will judge us
by our results. 1t is looking for con-
struction. Surely we will not fail.

RULING MADE ON
STOCK IN ESCROW
Orders Release Where Be-
low Value.

attorney General Arthur L. Gil
liom today ruled that the secretary
Of State must release stock held in
escrow where the issuing corpora
ton shows at least a per cent divi-
dend has been paid ON all common
stock even though it is shown the
stock is below par.
The securities law requires the
secretary of State to hold in escrow
stock issued by a corporation in pay
ment for intangible assets such as
patent rights, copyrights. trade
marks, leases, formulate, good will
or promotion fees. The stock is held
until the company shows at least
per cent dividend has been paid.
The stock is held to prevent assign
ment sale or trading by the owner,
thus curtailing operations in what
is generally known as "watered
stock" In numerous instances the
stock is below par and securities
commission officials have questioned
whether or not the company should
be required to bring it up to par by
writing off or amortizing deferred
charges or any other deferred item
causing the capital discrepancy.
Gilliom's opinion affects q great
number of Indiana corporations
whose stock will be released to the
owners even though it is below par.
