One oldâ€"time prosipector says in most points it is ex-l aetly â€"what prospectors in this area SUSSCStgd to the Ontario Mining Comâ€" mission. Apparently, however, the proâ€" visions regarding the brokerage pracâ€" tices. carried on by some firms does not meet with such general favour. Sydney Newman, writing in the Globe and Mail has a column of criticism, and Welingâ€" ton Jeffers the mining â€"editor of The Globe and Mail agrees with many of the points made by Mr. Norman. The fact is, however, that the provisions objectedâ€" to: are ‘due to public disapâ€" proval and irritation at certain features. It is doubtful i# established brokers will very strongly object to the provisionsâ€"referred to. As a matter of fact it is the "highâ€"pressure" seclesman and the "flyâ€"byâ€"night‘" fellow that is aimed at. This class has done more harm ‘to the brokerage busine:s in the public estimation than any other inâ€" fluence. However to present both sides of the case the article by Sydney Norâ€" manâ€"is <given herewith:â€" About the New Mining Act . Theâ€" Royal Ontario Mining Comâ€" mission and the drafters of the new Ontario Securitiee Act, now before the Procincial Legislature, appear to have ‘made an honeést effort to evolve a law more acceptable to those of all walks .. 7 UAAA S : | ‘Adoption .of Section 15 would mean ; that any citizen from south of the line, Writers in Globe and Mail _ Object to a Couple of Secâ€" â€"tions. _ of life engaged: in the: industry, and | more in line with British concepts of law and justice, but some glaring reâ€" versals to bureaucratic autocracy have| been permitted to find place and should | be expunged. Otherwise injury may be expected to honest effort and enpanâ€" sion of Canadian boundaries of prosâ€" perity to the north. Section 81 Section 81, which repeals all previous acts of the kind, is hailed as a return to democratic ideals. By its adoption, two formerly supposedly inalienans‘le rights will be restored to citizens generally even those engaged in minâ€" ing promotion, namely the right of appeal to the courts in cases where al party may feel aggrieved by a decision _of the commission, and the right to. freeâ€"bargaining by the individualâ€"even ‘the prospector and promoterâ€"where honestly acquired ‘possessions are inâ€" [vo}ved The former indefensible pracâ€" tice of escheating such poqsesc ons through enforced escrow Oof shares of stock will be stopped. Repeal of fo:â€"mer acts is also belated admission that auy attempt ‘to evaluate mining or oil shares in the initial stages, is not mly absurd, but impossible. ‘ Section 58 It is Section 58 which proposes the most backward step and clearly tresâ€" passes upon the inherent rights honest men. It provides that no person shall call at any residence. or telephone from within OQntario to any residence within or outside Ontario, for the purâ€" pose of trading or seeking to trade in securities, unless the recipient of the call or message is a close personal friend, a business associate a customer with whom the wouldâ€"be trader has been in the habit of doing business :n securities, or one who has specifically requested information in writing. It would be but one short step to denial of the use of T.T.C. street cars and busses by any one who could not prove to conductors that he was not cn a stockâ€"selling trip. son who has not been a resident of Ontario for at least a year before apâ€" plication is made with the inten:ion . of making his permanent home within the Province, unless he has been regisâ€" teted for at least one year in the jurisâ€" diction under which he last resided prior to appncatlon under the Ontario act. This provision transcends in autoâ€" cracy, if not in absurdity, anywthing of the kind ever incorporated in the b‘ueâ€" sky laws of the United States, or the destructive regulations and rules of the Securities Exchange Commission, that superâ€"bureaucracy of the United States, In fact, legislators of that country have been far too wise to incorporate proâ€" visions of the kind in any such laws as adopted by 47 States of the Union knowing full well that they and tae acts in which they were would be declared unconstitutional as soon as competent courts could get :t them. If there are any such words as "ultra vires" left in the Canacian legalistic dictionary the same fate should await them here., Attempts to deny honest men the use of the apâ€" pliances of science and invention th:at have expedited business the world over are not only abrogation of inherent rights in any civilized country, but iinâ€" practical at the same time. Section 15 Section 15 of the new act may xnot be ultra vires, but it may undenial.ly prove destructive, besides being quite unngecessary, in view of the powers the act seeks to confer upon the threeâ€"man commission. It provides that regis. tration as broker, investment counsel or salesman shall be denied to any peâ€" This provision scorns the "good neighbor‘" policy and is likely to nrove unfortunate for Canada, as calculated to dam the fiow of mining venture money from the United States. It is g‘p;neially agreed that if adequate capital is to be raisegl_‘ to develop Canada‘s great opportunitiese in mines and petroleum much of it must come from the United States, as> Great Britain will be out of the running for | who has not been passed upon by the blue«sky commission of the State in which he last resided, even though he ‘represented or hoped to bring in imâ€" portant capital, would be condemn=»d to wear out shoeâ€"leather tr#mping the streety of Toronto for one year before being eligible to enter the_ exclusive ranks of brokers, investment counselâ€" lors or salesmen. It entirely ignors ine demonstrable fact that, presumsbly through collusion between securities commissions and surety bond scomâ€" panies, registration in some States is denied unless the applicant is able to show cash assets of ‘at least $25 000. In other words, possession of cash is placed before honesty and rightâ€"liviug, and Ontario is apparently bent upon following the same undemocratic path. When, and by whom, was possession of mere wea‘th designated as an ir.â€" fallible guarantee of honorable dea. ing or intent The brokerage business, if conducted strictly upon a commission basis, as it should be, is one of the very few financial occupations in which an honest man may engage with little or no capital. Besides that under the poawers of the act, the commissioners are given every opportunity to inquire into the: antecedents and current standings of an applicant, and it thereâ€" fore seems quite unnecessary to kesen an honest manâ€"even from the Unived Statesâ€"waiting that long before he can take direct participation in â€" the great work that calls for the help, enerzy and resources of any manâ€"any honest manâ€"who can be induced to take a hand.
