Dear Sr:-It gives me pleasure to say word in
behalf of the Abbeve- Greenwood Mutual Insurance
CO. have had the opportunity to investigate the
workings of quite number of mutual insurance com
panies and have often wondered why of
people did not take their insurance in good home
tual companies. There several reasons why 1
believe we should patronize the 1nutuals but two
stand out very prominently to the careful observer
viz: First the premiums are much less than in the
old line companies. Second, we always know for
whose benefit an assessment is paid and this gives
an element of close personal interest all payments
I do not think place risks in any safer
company than a conservatively operated company as
the company you represent appears to be. 1t gives
me pleasure to commend your company 20 my friends

Cotton

New high prices for cotton futures
were established again yesterday.
Early buying carried the market up 35
to AZ points, with all new style con-
tracts at new high records. MAY con-
tracts sold at 27o2, which was above
the spot price of middling in several
southern markets. Realization Of this
TACT led to selling. which checked the
advance. The outlook for speedy
peace settlement appeared to dominate
inc market, however, and prices held
up. ne closing showed net advances
Of 20 to 66 points.
Consumption figures for March riven
out by the Census Bureau were dis
appointing. According to the report.
433, l2o running bales of cotton. cx-
olusive of linters, were consumed
fese figures were only a little higher
than those for the short month of
FEBRUARY, when 433 .516 bales went in
to consumption, and were much lower
than those for March. 1918, which
were 571,443. The effect of the re-
port was offset by strong Liverpool
market, broadening demand in the
goods markets and forecasts of un-
settled weather and lower tempera-
trres over the eastern cotton belt.
There was said to be considerable
foreign buying yesterday, a part Of
which was thought to be for Japan.

Net operating income Of the Chicago

income account az $o,217 900, lacked
SG,GG6.S91 of being sufficient to earn

at $l5,SS3,Sol. This was partly due

"llad these increased passenger and
freight rates been in effect from

president, in the company's report,
"there would have been added to the
operating revenues approx imately
$1O,O00,0 900 without any increase in eX

American Sumatra Earns $500
A Share on Common Stock

Gross profit from sales for the six
months ended January 81, 1919, of the
American Sumatra Company amounted
to S6S9, 1894, or a decline of 1887 ,562
compared with the corresp spending
period of the preceding year After
expenses and interest balance of $467,-
572 was equal, after allowing $6S,722
for preferred dividends, to $500 a
share on S7,835,985 common stock In
the corresponding period of the year
before balance of $8d9,0S9, equal to
$11.45 a share, was earned. Holders of
the common stock shared S366,135 in
dividends during the half year, leaving
surplus of S32,7l5.
The report called the attention of
the stockholders to the fact that the
greater part of the 1918 tobacco crop.
although sold by contract, is not billed
to its trade for reason that tobacco
is in process of curing and packing at
warehouses. BY July 81 next the
major part of this crop will be billed
in accordance with contracts.

Telephone Income Drops

WASHINGTON, April l5.-The net
income Of sixty telephone companies
with annual revenues above $250,000
showed a decrease of S220,OOo or 81
per cent, during November, 1918, as
compared with a total of S5,O77 900 for
November, 1917. A summary of No
vember revenues and expenses made
public to-day by the Interstate Com
merce Commission showed an increase
in gross revenues, however, Of more
than S2,400,O0O above the figure for the
same month in 1917, the total reaching
$29 ,497 900.
New-York tribune., 1919-04-16

Yet this does not mean that an
indemnity will be more difficult to
raise than war loan of the same
size. For Germany has an advan-
tage which roughly offsets. The
losses Of the war were not meas
ured by the war loans and taxes
which Germany raised. They were
measured in loss of production.
Millions Of men, battling in trench
es, ceased to produce wealth. And
that was not the only loss. Hun
dreds Of thousands, perhaps mill
ions, of civilians at home turned
their energies to producing NUM-
tions. Their energies were taken
from productive work-work which
ministers TO the preservation of life
and the maintenance of comfort.
All this labor Germany now has
again.

WHY'S Overland Faces
Big Wage Increase
Company Has Demands of
Workers Totalling $4,OOO,O0O
Under Consideration

TOLEDO, Ohio, March 15.-The man
agement of the WHY'S Overland Com
demands that, if granted would mean
an additional expense of more than
S4OOO,0OO a year An increase of Is
cents an hour is demanded for 10000
employees, the demands of the union
having been presented recently. The
men ask the end of piece work, a week
Of five working days, eight hours a
day, four hours on Saturday and dou-
Bile pay for overtime.
Conferences between employees and
the company are in progress. The au-
tomobilc company recently announced
a profit sharing policy, with the first
distribution during the present month.
New-York tribune., 1919-04-16

Finance Economics

The value of the labor lost by
Germany is measured with an ap-
Proclamation to accuracy by the
amount Of her war expenses as in
dlcated in her budgets. In four
years of war Germany's expenses
averaged $10.OOO,OOO,O0O q year.
That meant $4,000, 100000 in two
years; and against this the Allied
demands for $5,OOO,OOO,OOO in in
IDENTITIES in two years are not ex-
cessive. 1t must not be ignored,
however, that the figures of Ger
many's war expenses are based on
Il deprecated mark, whereas the
Allies insist on payment on Il basis
Of values in gold. If $10,OO0,0OO
600 be asked within the next thirty
years or even if the whole amount
Of $4,000, 100000 be asked within
the next thirty years, that will not
be excessive. 1t will average only
$3.50, 100000 year. And if Ger
many's productive power, with new
appliances, new machinery, new in
ventions, new methods, increases at
the same accelerative rate within
the next thirty years as it has in the
past thirty that amount will seem
even smaller as the years roll on
than it does now
