LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

A statement given out today by Pres
ident Dove of the Lanston company
relative to the proposed increase of the
capital stock to the authorized charter
limit and its pro rata issue to stock
holders when issued, together with
other information. was looked upon to-
day by some who are interested in this
stock as a bull argument.
1t is the expectation of some that the
stock will reach the level of "a. and it
is this belief in the certainty of higher
prices later on that Is laid to account
for the apparently small supply avail
able at the current figures. At the
meeting of the stock exchange today
the only indication of the effect of the
official statement was the sale of
single block of the stock at an eighth
Of a point higher than the prevailing
prices of recent days. while the bid for
1t at the close was 1ss. an eighth of L
point better than yesterdays bid. The
asking price was 10.
Mr.. Dove stated that many stockholders
and investors had expressed to him and
other directors of the company desire
that the par OF the shares be changed
from so to 500, SO that they would be
In the usual amounts of shares Of stock,
pointing out to him that this was most
desirable from the standpoint OF an in
vestor. So much pressure had been
brought to bear that the board of direc-
tors decided that it was advisable to
change the par OF the shares at once.
and therefore special meeting was cali
ed with that end principally in view The
board. in view Of the necessity of calling
a special meeting for this purpose, then
deemed 1t prudent for the company to at
this time avail itself of its charter rights,
and increased the capital stock from S.
600. 600 to $10.OOO,OOO.
AS the company Is now paying in Vlr-
ginla taxes upon the total amount au-
thorized by its charter that is, $1O,OON-
0OO-this increase would not carry an
additional burden upon the company, but
leaves the company In position at any
time when the proper opportunity pre-
sents itself to make its charter rights
available to the fullest extent
Mr.. Dove said that the stock would
not be issued except pro rata to the then
existing stockholders at the time Of
issue. and he said further that the views
he expressed with reference to the action
to be taken at the special meeting were
concurred In unanimously by the board
OF directors and the executive committee.
The call today did not result In much
trading. But little interest was shown in
any OF the securities, and as the lack Of
buying was equaled by the selling, the
resulting dizziness was a combination of
the absence Of both factors of market
when at all active.
