DURHAM REVIEW : yet another weapon in the hands of ‘the _ Security Commission _ that should prove effective. In the future ; investors who feel that fraudulent ery Crown Attorney in Ontario, by the Attorney~General advising them to cooperate with the Commissioner and instructing them to receive and means have been used to obtain their money, or who are suspicious or aware of the fraudulence of the proposition submitted to them, have only to get in touch with the Crown Attorney of their town or city and the matter will have his preferred attention and in turn will be prompâ€" tly reported to the Commissioner in Toronto, and an investigation made. *"We earnestly trust that the inâ€" vestigating public in Ontario will take full advantage of this new orâ€" der," said Mr. Godfrey. "We try hard to keep postedâ€"on the activities of the stock and promotion crooks, but they are a mighty slippery crowd." If you feel you have had a raw deal or that one is about to be, has been submitted to you, get in touch with your Crown Attorney, and he will give you prompt and efâ€" ficent action. "It is not possible for us to recover money invested in the past," concluded Mr Godfrey." that now and in the future we will get the crook before he gets the money, that is providing we get the necesâ€" sary information." Letters have been forwarded toevâ€" ‘ sports in small towns. From the finâ€" ancial standpoint, of course, the ansâ€" ‘wer is decidedly in the negative but | there are other things to be taken inâ€" ‘to consideration. "Do you employ competent investiâ€" gators?" Mr. Godfrey was asked. "We do" he replied, "and they are kept very busy, I can assure â€"you, but they are handicapped at times by lack of the very thing we need most, viz. information. The need of active cooperation on the part of the general public in supplying inforâ€" mation is vital to the success of the department, and thank heaven I have at last obtained the necessary means to get it We now have the earnest cooperation of the Attorney General‘s deparment, and if the ayâ€" erage citizen will only exercise this new privilege, we can drive every dishonest promoter and stock salesâ€" man out of the province and assure the average investor at least a run for his money." The Hon. Arthur Roebuck, Attorâ€" neyâ€"General of Ontario has placed Investigate before you invest is the sound advice of J. M. Godfrey, K.C., securities Commissioner of Onâ€" tario. "I intend to confine the brokâ€" erage business to honest people," stated Mr. Godfrey in a recent interâ€" view with a representative of the Review. "High Pressure salesmen and vendors of dishonest securities will do well to give Ontario a wide berth in the future," continued Mr. Godfrey. "We have laws with plenty of sharp teeth in them and 1 intend to enforce them. Ontario investors will have every protection that my department can give. To date we have put into force several measures that have made themselves felt, and We intend to persevere until every broker with shady business deals, decides to either turn honest or get out of business." a Mr. Godfrey is a big man physicâ€" ally, with a quiet unobtrusive manâ€" ner, but with a forceful, dominant personality. Before his present apâ€" pointment he was a prominent legal counsel, famous for his knowledge of criminal and business law. Since his appointment by the Hepburn Govâ€" ernment, Mr. Godfrey has labored to put his department on a really ef ficent footing and from what it has accomplished to date it would apâ€" pear that it has more than made its presence felt. Financially, sports find it difficult going in small towns, but they conâ€" tribute to the life of the community much that is worth whileeâ€"Richâ€" mon Hill Liberal. Aside from the recreational value of sports, they also have the effect of uniting a town and giving young and old a common interest. GREATER PROTECTION The old proverb to the effect that idleness breeds mischief, applies to the state as well as the individual. The community that fails to provide means of pleasure and recreation is a fertile field for crime, and will find its standards of living reduced to a low level. for the surplus energy of young and older folks, while at the same time they prove a source of entertainment for large numbers of spectators. In small communities these events are often the ‘principal form of recreaâ€" tion. They are clean,â€"healthful sports and if kept free of crooked practices are an asset to any community. In the first place, sports such as hockey, curling, skating, etc., in the winter; baseball, softball, lacrosse, etc., in summer provide an outlet FOR INVESTORS complaints. 20 S 00 Te wad wit 0.
