bad INVESTMENTS.
HOW TO AVOID THEM

Every investor should be son
guard" This applies particularly to
the small investor.
1. Mining stock. The best looking
rhne in the world may proves a white
elephant" Mining is a very expen-
sive undertaking and the risks are
unusually great. There is saying
that "a mine is hole where fools
dump their money"
There are many good mining in
vestments, of course, but this branch
of the investment market is generally
not for those who work for and de-
pend upon salary
2. Oil stock. Drilling for oil is
costly. The hazards are great. Oil
investments are speculative and in a
class with mining investments.
3. In the wake of every important
discovery or invention there comes a
host of schemes "airplanes," "radio,"
wireless" The promoters of these
may have only the best of intentions,
but frequently their enthusiasm is
about all they have to SELL Look be-
fore you leap.
d. Investment in real estate" sit
uated in some distant place is some-
times as dangerous as mining stock.
Al
swamps advertised as "sea shore
frontage" Know what you are buy
ing before you invest.
Land development" schemes fire.
quently do not pan out. At best it is
a long time before any money comes
in from sales. Investment in "new
companies" that are going to "sell
by mail" should be generally avoided
6. Patent rights and processes dis
tribution. 1t is rarely the patentee
who makes the money.
7. New manufacturing methods"
should always be closely checked and
investigated.
8. An investment requiring a quick
decision is often a fake If there
isn't sufficient time to "sleep over it"
something is probably wrong.
8. Special inducements" in cash
discounts or stock bonuses urging you
to be one of the first to invest are
suspicious symptoms.
10. Tips alleged to land you on
the ground floor" are rarely to be
taken. Those who are "on the ground
floor" will monopolize the opportun-
ity.
II. playing the stock market on
margin" and all other forms of spec
ulation are decidedly not for the small
investor. Beware of the bucket
shop" If you buy stocks outright for
investment, do so through a member
Of legitimate exchange.
r. Stock in mail order compan-
les" being organized with promises
based on what others have done
rarely turn out well.

zation in so far as its efforts to prop
erly and efficiently defend and adj
vance the interests of the bakery
workers are concerned.
Neither opposition from without
which often led to most bitter strug-
giles necessitating heavy and untold
sacrifices-nor internal dissensions
were able for any length of time to
prevent our advance or the gaining
of increased strength. Whatever our
international union as labor organi-
zation and as an important human
factor in the baking industry was
able to contribute along the line of
remedying existing evils and the sta
biliZation of wage and working con-
ditions was done, and at no time neg
lected
If this fact was realized to the full
est extent of the value of all achieve
ments by all the workers employed
IN the BAKING industry tnen the very
structure under whose protection their
welfare is being furthered and their
life interests are being protected
should rest upon a foundation of in
conquerable strength and could be adj
ditionally fortified without the least
danger of the slightest possible shak-
ing.
Upon the solidaric activity of the
workers within the system of organi-
zation established by them alone rest
the practical and executing forces of
progress and the development of
power by means of which any arbi-
trariness and all oppressive measures
on the part of unscrupulous employ

ers can be prevented
The quicker these truths are real
lied and grasped by the workers en-
gagged in the trade union struggle the
sooner we. will be able to count
upon fundamental change in our
working conditions toward lasting i'm
provement.
As far as the conditions in the bak-
ing industry are concerned the reali-
cation of these truths is much greater
since the entire activity on the part
of powerfully developed system
of trusts and corporations has direct
ed itself towards complete monopo-
lization of the whole industry for the
purpose of financially exploiting all
values created with the least possi-
BILE consideration for their producers.
1t is, therefore, but logical for us
to draw from the facts presenting
themselves to US the conclusion that
the power of privileged and special
interests with their egotistical desire
for self-government can only be
broken by somewhat equal position
of power on the part of the workers.
AS long as the workers of any
branch of industry do not realize this,
again emphasizing this practical ne
cessity for the workers in the baking
industry, and in view of the strong
and united organizing efforts among
the employers, our own position will
be relatively disadvantageous and it
will remain so unless we concern our
selves energetically and untiringly
with the thorough organizing of the
unorganized thereby extending the
sphere of power of our organization
May this furnish some food for
thought for all of us on Labor Day,
Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-eight!
