DETROIT, (AP).-The av-
erage new car buyer will feel
little effect from yesterdays
court ruling in Los Angeles
which dismissed antitrust
charges against General Mo-
tors. But the auto industry is
going to be highly pleased.
General Motors, four past
and present Chevrolet officials
and three Southern California
Chevrolet dealer associations
were charged with violating
antitrust laws by conspiring
to halt the sale Of new Chew
rolets through discount houses
and referral services.
The suit began November 20,
and GIN attorneys moved for
dismissal when the Govern
ment ended It's case Wednes-
day,
Observers pointed out South
ern California is one Of the
most competitive auto terri
tories anywhere and that this
competition will hold down
prices. whether or not discount
houses also sell cars.
Divided Over Branches
Chevrolet dealers had been
selling cars at discount houses
as we'll as at their own dealer
ships. Company officials asked
them to stop. The standard
franchise agreement between
the company and the dealer
provides the company must APP
prove any branch locations.
Chevrolet said discount houses
became branches.
Although General Motors
withheld formal comment on
the dismissal of the suit, the
company's officials previously
have said the trial was a vital
test Of the entire auto fran
chise system used by all pass
enger car companies.
The National Automobile
Dealers Association, at its an
nual meeting in Miami Beach
in January, unanimously in
dorsed the General Motors de-
tense.

Syndicate Suspected in Stock Thefts

necticut and New York to
Southern Florida.
Stocks Not Negotiable
on the surface, the theft Of
stocks and b. ads would not
appear to be much Of q profit
able venture for the under
world.
Stock certificates are not
negotiable; each has the name
of the owner and a registered
number. Once stolen, word is
sent to brokerage houses that
they are hot" Even bonds
which say pay TO bearer" have
numbers.
And attempts to dispose OF
the loot generally involves law
violations that puts both the
Federal Bureau of Investiga-
ton and State enforcement
officers on the trail.
Disposition of Government
savings bonds Of smaller de-
nominations is relatively simple
THE thief or fence" provides
himself with forged identified
ton in the name of the original
owner of the bond. On presen-
tation of official-looking iden-
tification, most banks will pro-
vide cash Immediately for the
small bonds.
How Sale Was Made
In getting rid Of large de-
nomination bonds. however. the
criminal usually makes use OF
the confidence mans No.
principle: Many persons lose
sight Of important details
when given the opportunity to
make a fast buck"
This is the way one sale
was made:
A criminal with 100000 in
Government bonds, all in $l0.-
900 denominations, made con-
tact with a Texas millionaire
He represented himself as
the man whose name was on
the bonds and said that he was
in a little trouble with the in
come tax people. He said he
had never paid tax on the in
terest from the bonds and was
now under investigation and
needed cash fast.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-03-15

Because q bank transaction
would Immediately be reported
to the authorities. he was pre-
pared to sell the bonds TO the
individual at q considerable
discount.
The deal was made. SUBJ
sequently. the buyer found out
the bonds had been stolen in
New Jersey.
Collateral" for Loan
Getting cash for stolen stock
certificates involves even more
subtlety and preparation. The
key is legitimate financial
device fairly common in busi-
ness circles: Obtaining a loan
by pledging stock certificates.
This is the way 1t works;
The criminal first estab-
fishes a legitimate bank ac-
count in a large city. Some
months later he turns up at
a smaller bank In city away
from the centers Of finance
and stock exchanges.
His story is that he needs
funds for some deal and
would like to make a loan. He
presents the stock certificates
as collateral. If the bank Of
fetal is suspicious. he is asked
to call the out-of-town bank
which has the legitimate ac-
count.
Usually, the bank official will
watch the criminal sign the
note-with the same name list
ed on the stock-and make the
loan.
The stock certificates are put
in the bank vault and, as long
as interest payments on the
loan are maintained, nobody
gets too inquisitive.
If the loan is called, however,
the bank may check on the
stock. Then comes the revela-
ton that the collateral was
stolen stock.
