Ames, CCF organizer in the north. Mr. Ames said in an in- terview im Cobalt Tuesday, that municipal councils and _ other organizations were completely fooled by the Northern Ontario Natural Gas Company. Northern towns were asked to support the Northern Ontario Natural Gas Company, and told that northern people would be given the chance of investing in the company, he said, "In fact, a few promoters have made fantastic profits and northern Ontario's citizens have had no chance to buy stock ex- cept at today's highly priced market quotations." Mr. Ames referred to a recent analysis made by the Canadian Brotherhood Employees. This showed that Ralph K. Farris, president of Northern Ontario Natural Gas, made $750,000 (seven hundred and fifty tho- usand) from an investment of $300 (three hundred). Mr. Farris - reserved 37,500 shares fifths of a cent each, now selling at $20 per share, at four which is or 2,500 times what he paid for it. Gordon )}K. Maclean of Fd- monton paid $5,287 for holdings now worth $2,115,000. C. Spen- cer Clark of Seattle, paid $6,725 for stock worth $1,120, 000 to- day. "These figures may show that it advocated public ownership of the gas lines," Mr. Ames said. ; the CCF was not so crazy when "A great many people in the north worked to help the north- ern Ontario natural gas com- pany, and now they can see that all they did was to line the poc- kets of the promoters with fan- tastic profits." he added.
