Chamber Nips
Land Frauds

Not satisfied with selling worth
less Chocolate Mountain lands in
Imperial county under the misrep-
lresentation that they are irrigable
Imperial Valley lands, eastern op-
orators are now selling these rocky,
arid tracts in the mountain areas
! several times and one operator has
sold the same tracts to as many
as four purchasers, according to
Robert Hays, manager of the Ell
Centro Chamber of Commerce.
The latest outbreak of Chocolate
Mountain land statesmen has oc-
CURED in New York City and in
Summit, New Jersey, according to
Hays. Records show that a num-
Der of these sales have been made
and that in several cases the same
land has been sold four times by
the fraudulent operator. The To-
cal chamber has taken the matter
up with the Better Business Bu-
reau Of New York and expects,
through purchasers whose address,
es have been obtained, and through
the notary public who executed
the deeds, to force this operator
to discontinue the sale of this
mountain top land.
Through the Better Business
Bureau in Kansas City the Ell Cen
tro chamber staff recently forced
/ an operator out of business who
was selling mortgages on this
Chocolate Mountain land, rather
than the land itself He repre-
sented that it was poultry farm
on which his uncle had a mort
gage of which he was trying to
dispose. Through a letter received
at the local chamber it was dis
! closed that this particular oper-
ator was attempting to trade this
mortgage for Kansas City proper
ty and, upon notification, the Bet
ter Business Bureau of Kansas
City put a stop to these trades OF
sales.
"The fight on the part of the
Ell Centro chamber and other COM
mercial and civic bodies, in coop
Grafton with the state real estate
commission, to save would-be buy
ers from putting their money into
these worthless investments, goes
on continually" states Hays. 1--WE
nave pretty well stopped these sales
in the southwest and have made
headway in the middle west. Now
we are fighting eastern operators
and it would not surprise me ir
the least if we were to get infor-
nation to the effect that Choco-
late Mountain land is now being
sold in European countries or in
the Orient"
