In an official opinion rendered at
the request of Secretary of State
William J. Kennedy, it was ruled by
Attorney General Herbert S. Duffy
that an organization may not be in
corporated as a non-profit corpora
ton when it intends to distribute
merchandise to it's members for re-.
sale. It was held by Attorney Gen
eral Duffy that a corporation organ
lied for the purpose Of purchasing
merchandise in large quantities and
distributing it to members, the OBJ
ject being to secure more favorable
terms for the members and to save
them money in the purchase of the
merchandise to be resold, is a COR
poration for profit and should be in
cOrporated as such. Secretary of
State Kennedy asked for the opin-
ion following the receipt by the cor
poration division of the department
of state of an application for nom
profit charter by an organization
which hoped to benefit by large
scale buying for members, who in
turn would resell the merchandise at
a profit to themselves but not to the
proposed corporation.
