REPORT TELLS
OF PROGRESS
Wall Street Journal Analyses
Earnings of Republic
Steel Co.

The report OF the Republic Iron
4 Steel Co. for the year ended Dec
81. 1918, tells a story OF remarkable
development. which has enabled the
company 10 show record breaking
earnings. says the Wall-st. Journal
II places the company in financial
position which will permit II 10
bridge any period of depression that
might arise after the European war
has ended
But the report for the year does
not tell the whole story. While
earnings were larger than in any
preceding year. Notwithstanding a
depression in the first half as Sc
we're as the steel industry has ever
experienced. the surplus available
for the common, before deductins
an extraordinary charge for depre-
citation OF $500 600. in addition to
regular depreciation charges. was
eight per cent.
The report does not segregate
earnings FOR the last half OF the
year. But il can be stated on au-
thority that they were at the an
nual rate of Is per cent on the com
mon. after making preferred divi-
dend provisions.
The most extraordinary showing
was for the last quarter of 1915. the
surplus for the common aggregatins
more than S25 share. Still better
Republic Steel Co. is now earning
at the rate OF $50 share annually
on its common.
While high steel prices had a
great deal to do with the showing
OF the Republic over the last six
months, low operating costs played
an important part. Since the pres
ent management secured control
everything possible has been done
10 cut down operating costs. and re
suits have been far-reaching.
Republic Steel has spent $4,000.
600 for new construction. and out
put is more than double what II
was al time OF organization. There
has been a great diversification OF
products. which gives a greater de.
gree OF stability 10 conditions In
periods OF prosperity as we'll as
periods OF adversely.
With this increased capacity. III
versification Of products. improved
processes, efficiency, etc. Republic
is bound TO give good account OF
itself.
The fact that the Republic Iron &
Steel Co. earned more for its com.
mon stock In the last quarter OF
1915 than the Steel corporation
earned for its common. bears out all
statements made with respect 10 the
formers progress In the matter oi
earning power and its present
strong financial and physical posi-
ton.
Unless something unforeseen hap
pens, Republic earnings are bound
to show big increases over the next
IL months and exceed the presen,
rate of $50 a share available for
dividends on the common stock
New high records in output are also
likely to be established.
