$4O. . Savings Lost by One Man
I &iion of one man who withdrew
$40.00n from a savings bank and In
vested 1t in this promotion. He told
me 11 represented the accumulations
of a lifetime. “And now 1 have lost it
all.” he sald In & trembling voice. “I
haven't a cent left and [ am past sixty
years of age—too old to work!"™ he
added.
Of the more than $2,500,000 ir.vested
by savers, over $1,000,000 was taken.
by these wiley promoters as conimls
slon. Think of making a‘commission
of over $1,000,000 on $2,500,000 ot ulul
fn about three months’ time! Think
‘ot what this “moFe" than $1,000,000 of
commission represents,~think of the
atruggles and the sacrifices of the men
and women who saved it! With some
it was saved penny by penny over a
period of years. Think of the sorrow
it caused,—~the heartaches, the misery
and the disappointment which' fol
lowed in the wake of the collapse of
this promotion. Think of the old man
who lost $40.000 4!l he had been able
to save during his l:ifetime, Think ofi
the widow's mite. t.l she lost it alse.
All that is feft today of the original

Here is an endless chain scheme

How Endless Chain Catche: /.c'ims
Here is how it catches it~ rms,
Each victim pays $4 and - iver
three one dollar coupons « she
must sell to her friends «n rhe
friends must come in and y. ‘fown
$4 each, get three coupons »u: Jdeh
they must sell te three fr ind
then these friends must p- ante
the scheme by selling conpon- ' iheir
friends and so on indefinird)y
Here is where ‘the promoters make
a clean-up, One of the sondittens
which must be met before the voang
woman who purchased the firsr ~oue
pons receives her $lO worth ot nose
for $1 is that all three to whom she
sold her three coupons must come (n,
pay down«s4 each. farghreamore, ¢oue, .
pons and then go out and sell them,
Hefore the three have done this ane or
perhaps all three get “cold f=et’ on
the proposition and, rather thur en mt
and “soak” three of their friends Sl
each, they simply give up the lobh nd
chnh%agn to gx&nrlmu'v Tt
in doing.so they also block the girl
who purchased the first coupuns from
completing her contract, and of course
she, too, loses the money she investe@
in the scheme. . Lot
At a glance the loss appears o b,
small, but the truth 1s the scheme ¢
capable of such great expansion that'
it soom takes in hundreds and thoue'
sands of vict!md. This is but one of
many endless chaln schemes in us®
today in the United States. '
