Rackets Unlimited:

town reports that two itinerant
magazine statesmen were fined $50
apiece and sentenced to 6 months
in the county Jail on a charge of
disturbing the peace. The fines were
paid and they were released after
promising to leave the state. The
men were arrested for using strong
ARM" methods on another Fergus
county farm wife.
The variations on the point rack
cts" are beyond estimate but you
can be sure that the faster a sales
person (man or women) talks about
points for school. veterans, bust
ness or any other "cause," the slower
you should be in pulling out your
wallet.
And the war veterans sympathy
angle has not blown-over despite
warnings from veterans organiza-
tons in the state. A Custer county
rancher sends in this story, 'Three
men in a new Ford car with an
Indiana license met my son here
at my place yesterday and pretended
they were working for the Veterans
of Foreign Wars. They sold him $23

worth of magazine subscriptions e
tending to help local veterans. He
also subscribed to an out-of-state
farm paper a week ago with the
promise of a wheel-chair for the
local American Legion"
Other Custer county readers re-
port that men and women solicitors
were asking for a SIS donation for the
"VFW drive for medical equipment"
to be put in local homes. Included
with the donation, was a 3-year SUBJ
scription for an out-of-state farm
paper.
The only way to put these and
other racketeers on the skids and
eventually rid the state of them is
to have nothing to do with them and
warn your neighbor who may not be
familiar with this sordid business.

wife who tells of strong-arm sales
tactics:
Strong-Arm Methods
There were two fellows here on
June 20. They were selling SUBJ
scriptions to magazines. They
claimed they were collecting points
to set up a business in Lewistown,
Mont. They told me the govern
ment gave them 2/3 of the money
to start it and they had to make the
other 1/3. They got so tough be-
cause I wouldn't buy a subscription
that it frightened me. I was home
alone with two of my small chill

of them"

from farmers and their wives are
