Stock Market Advice
Remember,
All is Not Gold That Clitters.

Resumption of activity the stock markets; in
creased public interest in speculation has brought
back the evil of the boom days of 1927 and 1928
the stock market tipster.
These clever and trained schemers mail you, either
free or for small sum, financial newspapers or
daily market reports discussing securities and
recommending various courses of trading. Often
times they telegraph and telephone you urging in
vestment in some particular stock and they orally
promise large and quick profits. No legitimate
broker can afford such expense.
The scheme is simplifed and exposed when you
realize that the stock they urging you to buy
is stock that they own or have an interest in and
when you buy they make profit Theirs is not
disinterested, unbiased recommendation.

experts have criminal records. Their victims are

That the United States Navy De- partment has been turning anxious eyes on Japan, and that the goal of the new S,O0O,OOO naval con- struction Is to get the U. s. Navy up to treaty limits, as Japan will shortly be, is the statement made by William G. Shepherd in an ar- ticle published in Golfers.
 MT shepherd notes that the At lantic fleet Is spending its second years in the Pacific, and that more than $50 ships out of the Navy's total of 394 are on the Pacific side of the continent. The reason for this as explained in official circles, Is "the uncertainties of internation- al relations in the orient" MT She- pherd, however, translates this as "the influence of Japan's big navy He declares that Japan's navy, al- though theoretically weaker than the American, is not actually weak CT.
 "Japan's navy ic incredibly figures show" says MT shepherd. stronger, comparatively, than mere Japan has used up every ton
