ILLIONS of dollars raised under the disguise of chnrity go
to line the pockets of promoters. Ticket sales on radios are
commonly used, and while the loss to any one person who buts
a ticket is small the aggregate loss for the
* United States runs into millions of dollars.
Usually the promoters of these schemes first
make a contract with some charitable insti­
tution to conduct a campaign for funds on
behalf of the institution. They are to run
the campaign in the name of the institution
and share the proceeds. The whole scheme
is often one of deception. To those who
have been led to believe that their contribu­
tions go practically 100 per cent to charity,
the following case we investigated should
prove illuminating.
A number,of promoters recently contract­

campaign to raise funds by the ratfle of a
new automobile. So far as the public could
tell from the banners used in displaying the
automobile, the full amount of the sale price

was nothing to convey any other impression. Apparently it
was open and above board and was being conducted by men
who were contributing their time gratuitously.
