the persuasive and anxious activities
of itinerant stock salesmen in the

away thousands of dollars of the
communits money. The people are
growing wary. They haven't known
of any money coming back from coal
mines and lead and silver mines and
gold bonanzas and hopeful indus
trial projects. They arc beginning
to realize that if any concern has a
good thing it doesn't need to scout
around in the highways and byways

its operations, in order to finance its
proposition. There may still be a
