STOCKHOLDERS OF PAN
MOTOR COMPANY WORRY
St. Cloud Automobile Concern Crit
icized For Plan of Selling
Stock
Stockholders of the Pan Motor
Company of St. Cloud are worrying
as to the safety of their investment
since the Federal Grand Jury *at Fer
gus Falls brought in an indictment
against Mr. Pandalfo, the "big gun"
of the concern. This company is
said to have 50,000 stockholders
scattered over 46 states, and many
of them live right in Morris. Sales
men were here many times last sum
mer and succeeded in getting conT
siderable money from this commun
ity.
The company is criticized for the un
usual method of the manner in which
they have sold stock. It has been
intimated several times that the big
idea back of the whole plan was a
"get rich quick" scheme in which
Mr. Pandalfo was the principal bene
ficiary. He claims that the whole
trouble started with the business men
of the Twin Cities and he states that
his methods have been right and
that the concern would be a big thing
if the big interests of the cities had
not inrterferred and spoiled his busi
ness. The citizens of St. Cloud still
have faith in the company and be
lieve that everything is right.
According to reports the Pan Mot
or Co. has sold stock and collected
$3,945,486 from 50,000 stockhold
ers. That in itself is not a bad
thing, but the company's assests are
only $1,665,100, and some people are
wondering where the other two mil
lions have gone. According to the
committee's report, 58 per cent has
gone to organization expenses or pro
fits, the stock salesmen have re
ceived $1,156,667 and Pandalfo has
picketed $553,752 in one year.

panies in the fire district,—the Carl-,

Companies that have a surplus are
asked to appropriate from such funds.

Newest Steel Easy to Cast.
The English have just invented a
high speed steel which is so strong
that engines and guns and tools made
of it can be worked more rapidly than
those made of any of the other steels.
The Popular Science Monthly says
that tools of this steel can be cast into
shape, and casting is the quickest
known way of making any tool.
There are few steels, however, which
by casting them do not become brit
tle. "Cobaltcrom steel," as it is called,
nevertheless can be made in this man
ner instead of having to be forged and
rolled, two very much lengthier and
more expensive processes

then, Carnegie has given more than
1,300 of these buildings scattereed over

Your Storage Battery
Now that the cold weather has set in you should
watch your storage battery and if any of the cells are
weak you should have them repaired before it freezes,
otherwise it will mean a costly repair and possibly a
new battery.
When you lay your car tip for the winter, take
out the battery and bring it in to us and we will take
care of it through the winter at a very nominal charge.
Come in and look over our battery room and have
our battery expert give you-instruction on the care of
your battery during cold weather, and tell you why it
$eeds this care. &
We test and fill your batteries tree of charge at
any time.

General Ian Hamilton, wr
pretty talent for writing, complains
that his descriptive messages from
the front were sadly garbled by un
lettered censors. Which reminds us
of the story how some writer protest
ing the historic charge that, "Our
army swore terribly in Flanders," said
It was really an erroneous rewriting
by some lunkhead of: "Our army ad
vanced with groat 4a*b."
