Commissioner of Corporations, in
Report, Says information viii
Be Of Great Value.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-"The
Government should not only probe
those concerns it suspects of wrong :
doing" said Joseph E. Davies, United
States Commissioner of Corporations.
in his annual report to-day. but
keep a record Of all corporations. both
large and small, as a matter of rou-
tine. This work might be done by
this bureau or some other bureau as
Congress thought fit," he declared,
but should be attended to immedi-
ately.
Such information might include
copies OF charters and bylaws,
names of directors and officers, kinds
and amounts of capital stock, bonds
and other similar obligations; state
ments Of assets and liabilities, and of
profit and loss. or income, dividends,
both cash and stock; the names of
other corporations in which 1t holds
stock, and the names of other cor
porations which holds its stock, to-
gether with the respective amounts
in each case; other companies in
which Its officers or directors are
either officers or directors, and their
blOChIlOlulHS III SUCH OLn6T companies
agreements made with other corpora
tons engaged in similar or related
business, with respect to control of
markets or territory price fixing, etc, .
said Mr.. Davies.
Such returns" he says. Should be
made annually by such corporations
in manner prescribed by the Gov
eminent, and, in connection with the
first annual return, additional infor-
nation regarding the original organ
ization, capitalization and physical
valuation of the property of the cor
poration might be required, together
with the amounts of stock or other
consideration paid to promoters or
underwriters.
while there are well-known facts
and conditions which require i'm
mediate legislative consideration, as,
for example, as to interlocking sdi-
rectorates, holding companies and
definitions as to what shall consti-
tute unfair competition and restraint
of trade or monopoly. yet careful
analysis and ordination of such in
formation would throw much light
upon industrial conditions, and would
be of great value to the President, to
Congress and to the public in the de-
termination to further governmental
policy"

REMARKABLE RECORD
Flesh. forming Food That Succeeds
Nearly Every Time.

A man or woman might as well starve
outright as to take food into the stom-
ach and not have it assimilated, yet in
Atlanta, as well as in every other town
and city, there are many people who
are thin. pale and seem underfed. sim
ply because the food they eat is not as
simulated and fails to make good blood
and firm flesh.
Samose, the wonderful flesh forming
food, takens before or after meals min
giles with the food, so that 1t is assim-
Hated by the system and makes rich
blood and pleasing plumpness. No one
can use 1t for week OF ten days with
out a noticeable gain in weight. Sta
tistics show that out of every one hun
dred people who commence the use of
Samose, SO will find a full gain In weight
and restoration of health and strength
Any one who is thin. weak, scrawny
and emaciated can put soc on deposit
with Jacobs Pharmacy and take home
a box of Samose. If the treatment does
rot give noticeable increase in coed
firm flesh and restore strength and
health. they will return the money with
out any questions.-Advt.

CAPITAL PRICE IS
S DUE To DROP
GRADUALLY
Forbes Says Apex Of Advance Has
Been Reached-Living Cost
Also to Tumble.
BY 3. c. FORBES.

1t takes courage, but, after giving
the matter mature study, l am will
ing to go on record with this state
ment-sure to be widely derided:
believe the world has seen the
apex of the advance in the price of
capital that has been going on for
more than a decade, and that there
will now set in a very gradual down
ward movement destined to last sew
Srd years
The change IN the income yield OBJ
ta4nabie on the best investments is
not likely to be appreciable for sew
eral months, owing to the abnormal
governmental borrowing contem-
plated abroad and the heavy corpo-
rate demand impending here, but, in
the absence of any great war. the
recession should have made consid-
cradle Roadway before 1915 has
passed.
That interest rates will not con-
tinue to soar at the pace OF the last
four years is, to my mind, matter
permitting of no doubt.
This subject is of vital Importance,
not less to the man in the street, to
the small investor and to the bust
ness man than to the financier; and
in order to obtain all possible light on
it 1 purpose to gather and present the
views of our leading banking and
economic authorities.
The discussion can not fail to be
illuminating. 1t may afford valuable
guidance for municipalities, railroads,
Industrial corporations, business men
and Others confronted with the ques-
tic whether to pay thu high rentals
now demanded for money and agree
to pay 1t for long terms, OF to make
any temporary arrangements that
NAV be necessary until funds can be
raised, on long-date securities, on
more attractive terms.
investors of all classes, too. must
be interested in trying to ascertain
whether they can do better by buying
securities carrying a fixed rate of in
come for many years, or by holding
off for still greater rise in the wages
of capital.
Savings bank depositors will also
be affected by the course money
takes. If competition for funds forces
/ interest rates, and, consequently, the
income derivable from investments,
still higher the banks will be able to
continue paying at least per cent on
deposits. On the other hand, II bor-
