Seward Trading Co.,
; SAN FRANCISCO MAN TELLS OF
THE THOUSANDS LURED IN
TO NEW YORK STOCKS
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 25,<Spe
ial to the Gateway)—“Blue Mon
day, October 21, will long be re
membered by scores of thousands
of people who were wrecked and
. ruined in the swindling margin
I game”, say Kurr & Co. “Extended
press comment is to the effect that
the market crash was the direct re
sult of the money powers to drive
the public out of stocks and into
the bond market.
“Long continued propaganda,
apparently coming as clean news
from responsible sources, lured
money from scores of thousands of
people from all over the country to
be put into ‘safe securities.’ Money
taken from old socks and savings
banks and out of local business and
trade, sent to the greatest gamb
ling hell on earth, never to return.
Individuals and business houses
and business enterprises wrecked
by gambling in ‘safe securities’. The
press reports how ‘the lambs were
closely sheared’. Not only sheared
but hides were ripped off and the
victims financially butted.
“Next day further terrific slaugh
ter was reported with losses of
some millions of dollars, but even
that was only the prelude for the
mighty smash that followed on
Wednesday, when leading ‘safe se
curities’ sold off from $10 to $100 a
share and again the market was re
ported as the ‘worst break in his
tory’ with losses of $7,000,000,000.
“Seven billion dollars means 13,
440 tons of gold coin, 1200 carloads
of 24,000 pounds each, a solid train
13 miles long—loss in one day’s
gambling in Wall Street. Thursday,
October 24, wires were hot with re
ports of further slaughter, with
sales of 4,500,000 shares during the J
first hour. Millions of investors lost '
the savings of a life time after be
ing lured into the greatest ‘shell
game’ of the time.
“And not a word of protest from
better business bureaus or so-called
investment bankers and other busy
bodies who are ever ready to shed
maudlin tears of sympathy for in
vestors who put money into oil or
mining projects. They make no j
i protest against the gold brick mar
. {gin game of the New York Stock
j,! Exchange where billions of dollars
> are lost in a day.
i “The New York gambling itch af
f flicts the nation. It is a frenzy of
| market rigging and manipulation

“When the market breaks wide
open, the money lost in one day
amounts to more than the aggre
gate loss from mining from the be
ginning of time. The buyer of
[shares in a mining prospect or a
wildcat oil test 100 miles from pro
duction, has a far better chance to
'make money than he has to beat
;the ‘margin game’ as practiced on
'that Big Board thru the purchase
[of alleged ‘safe securities’. If he
once makes money, he goes back
into the game and goes broke,” con
cludes the market letter of Kerr &
Co.
“Bud” Dyer, king of the hand

ple of stitches in his head by Dr.
Hyatt. It is reported that two
