And there are those in the financial world who are ready to pounce on him. Mitchell of Canada, in his weekly market review, ex plores the reasons why "oth erwise sane people buy high ly speculative low- priced stocks solely on the recom mendation of some unknown voice on a long distance tele phone call,. . . often, with money they cannot afford to risk." His answer, "Gullibility and greed on the part of the uninformed." Enough Fortunes Mad ' Mitchell says there have been enough fortunes made in highly speculative stocks to create a mythology that in discriminate buying on the stock market is an infallible way to acquire sudden wealth. But he cautions that Can ada, for example, "is not just one big chunk of ore, nor is all of it swimming in a vast sea of petroleum. Properties are not all bonanzas, any more than all farms have rich soil or all girls are possessed of stunning beauty. - "To buy a stock certificate without having some idea of who and what are behind it is just plain stupidity that no amount of legislation will cor rect." " Standard & Poor's says I-T-E Circuit Breaker and Olin Mathieson both are at tractive for purchase.' It also says coal stocks, which have lagged behind the market, now appear reasonably priced for prospective gains in prof its over the coming year. It says the better situated coal companies are Consolidation Coal, Island Creek Coal, Pea- body Coal and Fittston.
