 Army Of Swindlers
HOuse-tO.iOuse Canvassers do BiIiOn.DOIIar Busi- < ness Annually; COrOnet Exposes Tricks of Trade

The next time you open your door % a liouse-to-hOuse canvasser you can feel perfectly safe, If you haven't any money in the house. For there are 10000 to 100000 gyps and criminals beating a path to your door, according to an article iil the November issue of Coronet magazine, and these canvassers do a billion dollar a year husinessl
 Travelling like modern gypsies from coast to coast in automobiles and trailer caravans, these nomadic crooks descend on a community like m invading horde and leave behind them Q collection of phony "Or- sentap rugs, "hand made" laces, filrs, tableclothes and linens" A few drops of expensive perfume on the label or cork of a bottle filled with 6 colored liquid will help them convince the average buyer that she is getting the real thing for 75 cents an ounce crude oil looks like fur- tliture polish to most housewives and flour and water can pass for silver polish.
 In Charlty's Name
 One of the most successful schemes of these canvasing crews, discloses Coronet, is to use the name of a charity as a front and to claim that part of the purchase price is devot- cd to some charitable purpose. An- other clever approach was used on club women in Q fashionable New York suburb by suave salesman
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-10-24

After explaining the desperate plight of some New York portrait artists. this contact m an" an- ilounced to the group that his com pany had arranged with the artists to produce oil paintings from photo graphs at reduced prices. The ladies paid cash for the paintings which were to be delivered in 90 days. That was the last they saw of the cash or the pictures. Nor were they any happier when their eloquent salesman was indicted in Boston in connection with a picture enlarge ment scheme, which led to the be. lief that the paintings" were to be nothing more than the enlarged photographs decorated with @ few daubs of paint.
 Offering well-known merchandise at ridiculously low prices is one of. the most recent tricks of the door bell ringers. Carrying samples of sheets and plllowcases of brand familiar to every housewife, they quote bargain prices and take the order which is to be delivered c. Q. D. in ten days. Having created this favorable impression, they then bring out their beautiful oriental" rugs which they sell for cash. Of course, the brand name merchant disc never arrives.
 Practical 'Don'ts"
 Better Business Bureaus and most local governments maintain a con- tinuous campaign against these door-to-door slickers, but it's the housewife herself who carries the "big stick" If everyone would fol- low these suggestions, claims Cor onet, we would no longer have racketeers ringing doorbells.
 Do NOT pay money to strangers without Investigating their creden- tiAlS. .N
 Beware of "free" offers - always look for the catch.
 Never sign anything without read- ing 1t. AND understanding it,
 Make your purchase on merit alone. Sympathy appeals are often faxed.
 Beware of lotteries, punchboards and chance offers. They are Illegal and often fraudulent.
 Phone your Better Business Bu- reau before you make Q purchase they'll gladly give you the facts they have available without charge,
