(Secret,•"ry of State)
Information reaching thi.?
partment hidicates that there is
much activity -in llie rural sec
tions of the Stale on tlic part of
strangers who are offering vari
ous types of oil leases, slock in
cenieleries, etc., in exchange for
securities held by onr citizens.
From inquiries and complrint-
received h,v tliis office and fion
investigations made. I liolieve it
can he fairly estimated that iu
this State three out of every four
victims of unscrupulous secur'-
ties salesmen are farm folk.
.Many victims hesitate to complain
for tear of appearing ridiculous,
hut my experience convince? me
that a few resentful and energetic
victims are more effective than
anything that could he done to
curb this activity.
Every person engaged in the
business of selling securities in
this Slate is required to be regis
tered with this deparlment. either
as a dealer or a » le.’man. Every
registered sale>:inan is given a
small registration C"rd which sets
fortli his name, re.gistration miin-
her. the name of the dealer em
ploying liini, tlip date of issiirnce
and expiration. This card is ■-‘ign-
ed by the Secretary of State, who
is ex-officio Securities (’ommis-
sioner in North Carornia. There
fore. prospective investors should
first request the salesman to
produce this card. Examine it and
le sure it ha- not expired, if tlie
salesmen cannot jiroduce liis reg
istration card, obtain his name
and address it iioss.hle. and for
ward same to tliis department, to-
)gelher with a brief account of the
I circumstances involved. Never
purchase a security from a ,sales
man who cannot produce
registration card.
Bob's in the army now.
He meet’s a gal that’s a wow.
Her name L? Lamoiir,
There’s more to be sure.
In this rookie’s life—and how!
There’.? a new Hope for the
army, now that Bab has joined
up. For America’s new defense
Army has its Hollyovood counter
part in “Caught in the Draft
Paramount’s up-to-the-minute
comedy film which opened today
at the I.iberty Theatre. The pic
ture burlesques the trials and
tribulations of the rookie’s life in
the Army.
I The comedy corps is herded by
Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour.
Fresh from the hilarious and ro
de-1 mantic hiffhway they paved in
j“Road to Zanzibar.” the two gag-
happy film pal.? are joined by
Lynne Overman and Eddie Dr.^ck-
en, two fluke recruits who get
more than they baraained for try
ing to keep Bob out of the guard
house.
Dorothy, the colonel’s daugh-
"er. wants her rookie to be a hero
before she says ■•yes" aiuf turns
the colonel into a kernel to make
her dream come true. Hope plays
the part of a movie actor who’s
in the Army as the boomeranged
result of one of his own practical
jokes He’,? the gun-shy. goose-
pimp/ly hero who’ll floor .von with
his brand new stock of Army
gags.
Bob and liis two musketeer
rookie friends. Overman and
Bracken, roach the climax of this
all-out comedy film when they
take part in some wrr game?
that rival any slapstick hair-rais
ers in the memory of tliis .-creen
reviewer.
Loaded with sparkliii.g wit.
tuneful melodies and laugh-lines
that explode in splil-sccond pre
cision, “Cauglit ill the Draft” is
nrize entertainment — tlie kind
that even the Army boys at ih(
camps will write home ahoiu.
