GIROUX HAD | RELATIVES IN TIMMINS| The North Bay Nugget on Friday last made the following reference to the death of Mrs. A. J. Giroux, of North Bay :â€"â€" worthless stocks. _ In addition,, offiâ€" cials of the department have conferred with the Assistant Attorneyâ€"General and the Deputy Attorneyâ€"General of the State of New with the obâ€" jeet of concerting plans to.put a stop to the activities of such salesmen in the territories under their respective jurisdictions. _ The Attorneyâ€"Generâ€" al‘s Department in Outario gave sound advice to the people of the Province in December. Anyone is justified in! examining the credentials of a strange| stock salesman and in making inquirâ€" ies concerning an unfamiliar business project before parting with money or giltâ€"edged securities in exchange forf stock certificates that may turn out: to be valueless. ~The Attorneyâ€"Generâ€" al‘s Department does well to take measures to increas@its power to proâ€" tect the public of the Province from being defrauded by smooth swindlers who have been thoroughly trained in the arts of salesmanship. The departâ€" ment will add to its ability to protect! the public by coâ€"operating with similar, departments elsewhere. Even if the, coâ€"operation extends only to exchange of information in regard to stockâ€"sellâ€"| ing frauds and their perpetrators, it will be of value, because it will assist the Ontario department to get on the track of such individuals and observe their activities. _ ‘*Measures for dealing with \'en-f dors of worthless stocks are of ser\-'icel to the public and also to established“ dealers in good securities. The men! who sell valueless paper to investors take from the latter money or sound securities.. The perpetrators of stockâ€" selling frauds also destroy the confiâ€" dence of the public in good securities that are offered by the representatives| of honest and respectable financial; houses and lessen the amount money available in the Province for investment in worthy projects."‘ | The Attorneyâ€"General is now said to be preparing to ask the Legislature to enlarge his depmtnwnt s power to actl against *‘ pressure‘‘ purveyors of| worthless stocks.â€" In addition, offiâ€"| serupulous vendors of stock of little or no value, some of whom had served terms of imprisonment for fraudulent transactions in the United States, had invaded the Province in the hope of enriching themselves at the expense of unwary persons with money to inâ€" vest. The department then promised to do all in its power to protect the public against such adventurers. _ It asked the people, on their part, to be cautious in their dealings with strangâ€" ers who came offering for sale stock in unfamiliar business undertakings or corporations. ‘ Ontario Government Getting After the High Pressure Salesman in Their Illegal Games The following editorial from a reâ€" eent issue of The Mail Empire should be read with much interest :â€" ‘""‘The Attorneyâ€"General‘s Departâ€" ment notified the public in Ontario in December last that a number of unâ€" MAY BE CHANEE M UW (Urges Construction of Line “',‘f““"“"‘“i“_}fjff fiIIll:K From Timmins to Kapuskasing #* in FLArtArA T;A Dividend Number 172 ind paper 1927 were increas® of e United 8 greatly triends ing childâ€" imily was hber sudâ€" Ntal â€"~the (VH1 ind / # #* # . % #* #.% ## *# 4. ® #* #* 4# # # ## ® # #4 #. _# «_ ## # # ## # # #4 # *# ## # h #4 * _* *« .“.“. .0" Opposite Goldfields Hoteb PHONE 112 +A k TIMMINS Residence PHONE 135 :; *# ® Â¥#* #4 64 # # * O..
