Galena- Signal Dividend Cut

Announcement yesterday that the di-
rcctors of the Galena- Signal Oil Com
pany had cut the quarterly dividend on
the common stock from So to
S150 share, with the added in
formation that the ex-dividend
date was August 81, caused a
considerable amount of criticism in
circles here from persons who have
been following the affairs of the com
pany. In view of the recent increase
IN the common stock to an amount
equal to $9,0000O0, it is emphasized
that the eX-dlvidend date should have
been later than the time of the decla-
ration OF the dividend. In explaining
the reduction ]. French Miller, secre-
tary of the company, said: "In view
of decreased earnings due to rising
costs of labor and materials and to
other factors of operation under war
conditions the directors have de-
clded to adopt policy of retrench-
ment at this time in order to conserve
the company's resources" The Galena-
Signal on Company was former
Standard Oil subsidiary.
Mining Dividends Less
Dividend disbursements durine
August by q United States mining
and metallurgical companies, accord
ing to The Engineering and Mining
Journal" amounted to $1O,32O,1O9, com.
pared with $13,456,756 distributed bv
81 companies in August, 1917. Cana
dian, Mexican and South American com
panles paid to shareholders S2,98o .637
contrasted with $1,771,051 a year ago
The Increase was due largely to a dis
bursement by the Cerre de Pasco Min
ing Company. In 1917 a corresponding
disbursement was made in September

Failure to obtain a sufficient sup

The fire control equipment used on
American war craft is on a par with
that in any navy. Admiral Earle said,
