WARNS PUBLIC'
AGAINST STOCK
DECEPTION
Success of the public sale of
$50,000,000 Class “A” stock of
Hearst Consolidated Publications,
Inc., has led high-pressure sales
men to engage in tactics against
which warnings were sounded to
day.
Counsel for Hearst Consolidated
Publications, Inc., announced that
holders of this widely distributed
stock, which pays 7 per cent divi
dends, are being imposed upon in
two ways.
Salesmen representing them
selves as agents of Hearst insti
tutions are calling on owners of
the stock and seeking their sig
natures to buy more of it from
Hearst institutions.
Fake Applications
A typical example occurred in
Newburgh, N. Y, where a man
posing as a salesman for Hearst
Enterprises, Incorporated, induced
a woman to give him $7,500 for
the purchase of additional Hearst
stock. He presented her with a
fake application blank bearing
the name Hearst Enterprises, In
corporated. Needless to say, he
disappeared with the money and
she never got the stock.
Neither Hearst Consolidated
Publications, Inc., nor Hearst En
terprises, Incorporated, which
acted as the selling agent of the
stock in New York, has any sales
men now in their employ dis
tributing any type of securities,
since the entire issue of stock
has been sold.
Falsifying Value
The public has a right to know
that any salesman masquerading
as a representative of the Hearst
publications in disposing of securi
ties is acting without authority
and is not to be trusted.
Still other salesmen are falsify
ing the value of the stock for the
purpose of inducing holders of it
to switch to other securities, some
of which are highly questionable.
One misrepresentation being
used is that dividends on shares
of Hearst Consolidated Publica
tions, Inc., are being paid out of
capital instead of surplus—an out
right perversion of fact.
Call Authorities
Investors approached by such
salesmen are given this advice:
Tell anyone representing himself
to be an agent of any of the Hearst
institutions, or trying to induce
you to switch to questionable hold
ings, that you have read this pub
lic warning and will communicate
with the proper authorities of he
persists in trying to impose on you.

New Lake Fails
To Effect
Climate
Visions of the transformation
of the deserts of the Southwest
into gardens of plenty through
the creation of Lake Mead by
the erection of Boulder Dam went
a-glimmering today with the an
nouncement by the Department of
Interior that the 100-mlle inland
sea has had no Influence on
weather or climate in the area.
As the lake—largest man-made
body of water in the world—grew
last year on the inpounding waters
of the Colorado River, perceptible
climatic changes were reported
unofficially in Southern Nevada,
New Mexico, Utah and Arizona.
These reports were discounted
by airplane pilots who flew daily
over the lake and were denied
in entirety by Weather Bureau
officials at Phoenix, Reno and
Salt Lake City. J. Cecil Alter,
meteorologist at Salt Lake City,
stated:
“By comparison, the water
in a pitcher on a speaker’s
stand is about as effective in
air-conditioning an auditorium
as Lake Mead is in modifying
the climate.”

belle of the local Italian colony.
She charges he promised to marry
her.
