For the purpose of this column, however, the story is powerful enough. It points out what every Intelligent adult should know: that It takes two to make a swindle a crook, plus a victim who thinks he's getting something for nothing, or, at least, getting very special treatment not available to every other person with money to invest It would seem to me that anyone over the age of 12 who is offered a "genuine" two-carat diamond ring for $50, or shares of top quality stock "few brokers know about" on margin forbidden by law ought to know enough to investigate first before handing over his money. Everyone loves a bargain. I'm sure that there are bargains in overcoats and automobiles and refrigerators. The sales of our large deDartment stores offer increased values because of changes in sea sons, styles, because of inventory problems and many other factors affecting honest merchandising practice.

NO BARGAINS But there are no bargains in dollar bills or the shares oi Du Pont or General Foods, or Santa Fe or Con. Edison. Nor even in the shares of less active, less well known Issues.
