Will Get After
Fake Corporations
...
I Journal.
Two jolts are proposed for the
genial
men, who, by sales of
corporations incorporated under
; Oregon laws.
! The second blow is more seri
ous. It is to be in the form of a
! of a lifetime, to whom the loss
was irreparable disaster
were
chief sufferers.
The Oregon "Blue Sky" law
will provide for investigation of
every concern applying to file
'articles of incorporation before
i the articles are approved.
Any person having $200 can
now incorporate for $1,000,000 or
more, sell the stock and
get out of tbe state before being
captured or even suspected, said
C. D. Badcock of the state cor
poration department, who attend
ed the meeting. This amount
covers the $75 filing fee and ?125
annual license tax. Once out of
tbe state vendors of bogus stock
are comparatively safe, no mat
ter what the amount, because
they usually sell the fake secur
ities in small lots that investors
endure ratherthan complain, and
prosecutions must be based upon
signed complaint of defrauded
persons.
Under this system there have
been incorporated in Oregon 17,
000 domestic corporations and
850 foreign corporations. Not
more than 0000 of the first
1 number are "live" organizations,
! suid Mr. Babcock. The other
, have either been disolved, or are
about to be dissolved because of
' 1 i- , ,.
! del'cncy in payment of license
fees.
At the same time, complaints
are constantly being received
from every state in tbe union that
these defunct corporations are
still selling stock, making impos
sible claims, and roping in the
unwary under the unchanged
seal of the state of Oregon still
blazoned on their certificate of in
corporation. Preachers, teachers, clerks and
farmers are included in the li&tof
tbe unwary tiled from the cecre
tary of state's correspondence.
A preacher gives from bis
pittance of a salary a Utile mon
ey to educate his child ren which
he hopes to increase by specula
tion plausibly urged The end
is disappointment, sorrow and
greater debt.
Tbe school ma'am wants more
advanced education. She in
vests her savings hoping to get
large returns to meet expected
txpenses, and ber loss makes
even her present station Impos
sible of being sustained.
Pitiful stories are told by work
ing people and farmers who have
followed lure the of the promoter
whose creed is to "sell nothing
for something to those who want
something for nothing".
Until the Oregon "Blue Sky"
law is made operative by popular
vote publicity -and investigation
will be relied upon.
Secretary Oicott said yester
day afternoon that he would ask
all corporations to answer ques
tions which he will submit on a
printed form Those who refuse
or delay will be advertised. At
torney Richard W. Montague of
the committee said he did not
believe any legitimate corporation
wauld hesitate to give any desir.
ed information concerning its
condition.
The low license foes charged in
Oregon are held in large measure
for the ease with which fraudul
ent corporations enter into ex
istence. Mr. Babcock called at
tention to the cause of F. W.
Wool worth company, a concern
operatiug five, 10 and 15 cent
f tores all over the country. It
is a New York corporation. ,It
was originally captalized at f 10,-
000. Recently its capitaliztion
was increased to $63,000,000.
The increase in the license fee
paid in Oregon wae $5!,23. The
Increase in the license fee paid
the state of New York was f 33,-
0'JO. The Oregon corporation law
provides that foreign corpora
tions doing business in tbe state
shall pay as large a license fee as
domestic corporations.
It was promised that the new
law should "have-teeth and a
bite."
