Open Monday Nfeht
At Grand for Week
.
. One of the most pretentious at
tract ion a of the current theatrical
season opens at the tJrand theatre
Monday night for six days and two
matinees when Richards, Ameri
ca's greatest magician brings his
big show of a thousand wonders
here direct from a record break
ins tour of America's leading cit
ies. v
Although Mr. Richards is now
acknowledged as the leading ma
gician and scientist touring Amer
ica, his show must not be confused
with ' the usual performances of
fered I by magicians, " as Richards
carries a mammoth production
that requires practically three
hours, presented in three -v parts
and 12 big scenes. It requires
more than a 70-foot baggage car
to' carry the scenery which Is very
costly and has amazing effects.
Richards also carries a large
number" of assistants that have
been with him for years inludlng
Ted Schwab billed as the "Cyclon
ic King of Syncopation" known ev
erywhere in the United (states as
the banjo king. Richards has -departed
In many wsiys from other
magicians as he has added some
of the most baffling mysteries of
the orient to his already fascinat
ing program, which contains a
most delightful blend of clean

Dealpra in stockn or honds who
attempt to get consideration for
their proposal in the state corpor
attei department by claims of "in-
iiuence m iiign -places, or Dy re
munerate promises to the depart
ment officials will receive short
shrift, according to a statement
made public Saturday by W. E.
Crews, state corporation commis
sioner.
"From time to time," says the
statement, "there has come to the
attention of this department infor
mation that dealers having appli
cations before the department for
permission to sell securities in this
state have been preyed upon by al
leged politicans and others claim-
to have 'influence' which will
hasten action or obtain special fa
vors and privileges from this de
partment.
"In some instances the depart
ment has been informed that
these persons have offered their al
leged 'Influence' for sale on a cash
basis. In others, these self-styled
friends" of thev department offer
to get favors by . the department
for blocks or slices of promotion
stock. I wam to warn applicants
that such activities - avail them
nothing, but whenever the delicate
hand of this type of gentry ap
pears, the department moves with
extreme caution.
"It has been the experience of
this department that wherever
dealers resort- tonse of 'influence,
whether that 'influence claims to
be in the nature of a 'pull with
high, officials" or 'political pow
ers,' the business plan of the de
partment should be subject to the
closest scrultlny for the purpose 6f
ascertaining if there is not some
thing wrong, for where dealers re
sort to these tactics, it generally
develops that their business plan
Is questionable and someone con
nected , with the organization ex
pects to get something that he is
hot entitled to.
"Political or, other 'influence'
will not, and does not, sway this
department in the smallest degree
in passing on applications of deal
ers. Each application must stand
or fall on its oVn merits. Each
must stand the test laid down by
the blue) sky law under which the
department operates, to the effect
that if the proposed plan of busi
ness of (he applicant is not un
fair, unjust or inequitable; that it
intends fairly and honestly to
transact its business, and that the
securities that .it proposes to is
sue and methods to be used in the
issuing of and disposing of them
are not such as in the opinion of
the commissioner will work a
fraud upon the purchaser thereof,
I shall issue to the applicant a
permit authorizing it to issue and
dispose of its securities. '
"All applicants applying to this
department should beware the at
torney, the politician, or any indi
vidual claiming to have any 'influ
ence' whatever ; with the depart
ment, because attempting the use
of such so-called 'influence,' in
stead of being a help, will be a
positive detriment."
