Who's Boss
Is Stunper
In CD Talk

The Rockville Mayor and
Council, the city postmaster
and the head of the city's
Civil Defense organization
stumbled around in some adj
ministrative underbrush and
hanging organizational charts
Tuesday night before emerg-
ing again to head in the right
direction.
Cause of the temporary confu-
sion was final action on a staff
report and recommendations
about Civil Defense. The report
proposed realignment of the CD
chain of command.
1t called for City Manager Wal.
ter A. Scheiber to take over at
city CD director from Linley S.
Van Ripper, who formed the city's
much-praised CD corps.
1t also called for automatic en-.
rollment of all city employees in
to the Civil Defense organization,
along with Postmaster Hugh H.
Hasselps work force of 100.
But then the footing got tricky.
Until Tuesday night, Van Ripper
not only headed up the city's Civil
Defense force, he also was Chief
Civil Defense Officer of District
No. d, which surrounds the city.
Inasmuch as Rockville didn't
have an official CD organization
ivan Ripper and his crew were
voluntary, District No. A and
Rockville's setup were one and
the same.
Further complicating the prob
lem was the fact that CD proto-
cal starts at the State level and
declines through the county, the
district, and finally the city.
So Van Ripper, under the stream
lined city plan, would be at once
Scheiber's deputy and boss.
''This would put me over Mr..
Scheiber and under him at the
same time" Van Ripper said dryly.
At this point, postmaster Has
sell told the city heads that while
he, as a Federal employee, has
been directed to cooperate with
local Civil Defense officials, he
didn't think that meant being abb
sorbed by the city's program.
The area served by his office,
he said, Stopped over outside
the city and CD District a as
well. He offered full coopera.
ton but reserved specific CON-
mitments without further author
ity.
After deleting references to the
post office in its resolution, and
after convincing Van Ripper that
the organizational wrinkles would
be smoothed out, the Mayor and
Council voted to make Scheiber
head of the city's Civil Defense
program pending approval by
Governor ]. Willard Tawes.

Associated Press FINANCIAL Writer
NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-The
stock market stretched its rally
into the third week despite a
few stumbling blocks in the
past week.
The Associated Press average
of so stocks was up s1.90 to
$227.70. The Dow Jones
averages of 80 industrials
gained $50 putting the level
at 670.50.
There was some argument
among market technicians as
to whether the market as a
whole was really rising, re-
gardless of what the averages
said.
Expectations of a traditional
year-end rally combined with
hopes that the steel companies
would follow the labor settle
ment reached by the United
Steelworkers with the can
companies were credited with
much of the optimism.

PROTECTING YOUR DOLLAR
By LOUIS J. LEFKoWlTZ
Attorney General Of New York
Substituting for SyIvi0 Porter, Whe Is on Voeotion

There is grave question about
the manner in which some
investment advisory agencies
pay for information about stock
they recommend.
Practice Is Fought
Through such unethical prac-
tees, securities are sometimes
touted with little concern for
their real value or the earnings
of the corporation in which
"touters" suggest investment.
The practice is being fought
by reputable investment serv-
ices in cooperation with law
enforcement and Better Busi-
ness Bureaus. Remember: The
well-managed service couches
its advice in the most careful
language, basing its informa-
ton on facts. figures and data
assembled through studies.
Such education processes are
a boon to our capital markets,
for they provide investors with
the most creditable informa-
ton concerning stock oppor-
tunities and our economy.
The concern Of law enforce
ment agencies centers on those
who operate in a shadowland
of legality. 1t may be a minute
element, but a costly one to
gullible investors and this
fringe" group must be weeded
out.
The "touts" are truly the
securities business. They must
be eliminated. One way you
can help protect yourself and
all others is to check the re-
sponsibility of a would-be ad-
wiser on securities as well as

Stock 'Tipsters'

The impressive looking PAM
phlet was titled: How to In
vest Successfully in Stocks and
Bonds"
The publisher was a "re-
search" corporation with an ad-
dress in the Wall Street finan-
cial district. The company is
sued stock at so cents a share
to publish the booklet. Some
$4,000 shares were sold before
the New York Attorney Gen.
erals Securities Bureau was
alerted to the promotion.
The book" turned out to be
a 10-page pamphlet similar to
those distributed free by repu-
table brokerage firms. Of $l8,-
900 collected through sale Of
the stock, the company's presi-
dent pocketed $4,000 for un-
derwriting expenses and $4,000
in commissions.
The company is now out of
business.
Millions Involved
The amount involved in this
operation is small compared
with millions lost each month
by unwiSe and uniformed in
vestors-despite all the pleas
and warnings by Government
authorities. the New York and
American Stock Exchanges, the
National Securities Dealers AS
sociation. and stock brokers.
We are in the midst of the
most extensive investment in
securities in our country's
history.
Millions have dipped into
savings accounts and borrowed
on insurance policies and other
collateral to purchase stocks. A
vast army of investors is always
alert for so-called inside in
formation"
Reputable brokers and finan-
cial institutions are prepared to
give wise counsel and advice.
Similarly, the majority of in
vestment advisory agencies en-
ploy specialists, analysts and
economic experts to guide their
clients. Informative, educa-
tional and helpful bulletins and
documents are issued by repu-
table sources to guide investors.
Unfortunately, a new breed
has arisen to the dismay of the
exchanges, brokers and pru-
IDENTIFY managed investment
services. They are the "tipsters"
and stock touts."
These unprincipled individ-
ualS try even to corrupt officers
of some companies. =
There is a minority of the
trustees of American industry
and business which is suScep-
tible, weak enough to accept
fees in return for so-called
inside" information.
