HC Deb 08 April 1913 vol 51 cc1013-4W
Mr. FIELD

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware of the fact that the New York State Legislature passed, on 25th March, 1913, a Bill creating a State board of securities, a measure which prohibits the circulation of watered securities and worthless stocks and shares; if so, whether he will cause inquiries to be made in New York as to the particulars of this Bill and lay the same upon the Table for the benefit of the House?

Mr. BUXTON

I am making inquiries on the subject, and will communicate the result to my hon. Friend.
