Safeguarding the Investor
Number One of a Series
There is an annual loss in the United htatcs of hundreds of millions of dollars
which arc put into so-called inestments pictured in glowing terms and sold to the
credulous by unscrupulous promoters.
Many millions of dollars arc also lost through the exercise of bad judgment in
volving undue risks. The good faith of the management and promoters may be
the best, but unfortunately that will not avoid the consequences of basic infirmities.
With the tremendous increase which has occurred in the number of investor's
caused by the wide influence of the Liberty Loan campaigns, it is unfortunate that
so many of those who have just begun to learn the wisdom of saving and invest
ing should risk losses through fraudulent promotions or unwise speculation.
Recognizing this, the governments of many states have sought by Blue Sky Laws
to protect investors from get-rich-quick promoters. Similar Federal Laws are
also in the making.
We strongly urge the investor to select as his adviser any of the long established
and widely known investment banking houses whose record over a period of years
is an assurance of ability, intcgritv and responsibility. If this is done, the first
and most important step toward his protection would be achieved.
In a scries of brief advertisements. Hambleton & Company will endeavor to recall
to the experienced investor, a number of important services which are rendered by
the conservative investment banking houses of America. We hope also to suggest
a few precautions to the less experienced and assist them to determine the safest
and most profitable employment of their funds.
We shall appreciate your consideration of these advertisements as they appear
and invite any comment you may care to make.

said it was evident that prcssuro is
being exercised by the banks to protect
credit from absorption by the specu
lative element, and preserve It for com
mercial purposes.
Another feature which confirms this
opinion, he said, Is the more rigid scru
tiny of collateral offered by borrowers
to the banks. In fact, lie. sntd, not
only Is the quality of collateral sub
jected to closer examination, but larger
amounts are demanded on margins. He
said he has knows where collateral
which was accepted without question
some months ago is now considered in
sufficient nnd borrowers have been
offered the alternative of putting up
more collateral or of having their loans
reduced. '
It Is also evident, he remarked, from
the fact that for some lime past thero
hns been no runaway markets in any
of the groups such ns we had n few
months ngo. Tho slump Is on, he said,
and will remain so tor n little, but he
expected n return of easy money at nil
early date.
Tho Mechanic and Metal National
Rank of the city of New York soys in
its May letter: What is of present
concern Is whether the lnbor shortage
will dlmlsh or become mor acute. A
great deal rests upon the tide of Immi
gration, in the twelve months Imme
diately preceding the war l,i!00,000
immigrants arrived at our shores, and
the arrivals in the five years previous
to the outbreak of the wnr were more
than 1,000,000 yearly. In the five years
that have elapsed since the outbreak of
the war the yearly nverago has been n
little better than 1200,000. and thnt
rate of immigration hns been largely
offset by emigration. In former years
our coal mines haw1 depended upon the
foreign -born for (10 per ont of their
lnbor, nnd hnlf of the unskilled rail
road lnbor hns been orcign. If Immi
gration does not expand largely, nnd If
the present demand for labor continues,
our t'lortagc is bound to grow more
rather than less severe. There
nre many elements in the situation
difficult to predict. On one side the bnd
conditions in Kuropenn countries, espe
cially those of central Europe, will
doubtless cause nn urgent desire on the
part of workers in those countries to
come to America. On the other side nre
our immigration laws, and tho possi
bility that labor unions will bring
pressure to have these made even more
stringent.
Federal Kescnro Ilanh, Philadelphia
For a long time past tho failure of the
railroads to givo ndequnte service hns
hindered the free shipment of fuel, rnw
material and goods. The sltuntlon has
been exceedingly nggravatcd by the re

dustrial plants generally have been opi

most trying circumstances due to these
transportation difficulties. It is hoped
thnt with the railroads restored to nor

Prices still show an ndvauclng ten

but the advance has largely stopped In

The labor sltuntlon shows no distinct
change, and operatives in the main still

factory, though it is noted that, duo to
the nmouut of money tied up in mer

and further to the tight, rein which

been less discounting of bills and some
tendency to nlle-w them to run to ma
