Not Investment for Sayings

Question-Have invested in small way
wage earnings in shares of stock in hope to
obtain better interest on what little funds I
had than savings banks paid, and would be
grateful for your information as to stating Of
companies. if you have that available. and
advice as to selling said shares for protec-
ton: United States Steel Corporation (com-
NOM. Capuzaya Mining Company. Gladys
Belle Oil Company. and International
Asphalt, Paint varnish; Artificial Rubber
Manufacturing Company.-D. r.
Answer-It occurs to US that you
have not selected the class of securities
for the investment of savings of wage
Garner. United States Steel is a we'll
managed property, but the stock is very
speculative. We would not consider the
other issues good investments. Don't
buy these oil and mining stocks. Be
satisfied with securities returning a
fair income. You won't derive much
excitement from such investment pos
sibly, but when you retire at night you
will rest easier. You will feel that
your principal is pretty safe. For one
in your position Liberty bonds are the
most desirable. They return between
Az and per cent and are safe.

you consider the best and safest way or ways
to invest $1,000, at interest rate of to 8
per cent? This sum represents my "first
thousand" and l would like very much to
invest it in the best possible way.-A. G. G..
Answcr-You are asking for pretty
high return on your first 81 900 invest
rnent. OF course the chest possible
way" would be to buy Liberty bonds,
but if you insist on higher return
you might buy United States Steel pre-
ferred, United States Rubber preferred,
Central Leather preferred or Standard
Oil of New Jersey preferred, which
yield from 61a to Z per cent. Having
bought shares of this character, you
must keep yourself informed regarding

No Cause for Worry

Question-About the middle of November
| was looking about for a safe and sane 5
per cent bond Investment and asked the
broker what he thought of United States
Steel per cent bonds. He gave me to
understand that as an investment they were
gilt edge. BY this time they have lost about
4 points, and cannot seem to make an effort
to regain the lost ground. Do you thinl.
well Of it? Before owned these bonds I
paid little attention to them and do not
know how high or how low they ever stood
Am safe with them 20. A. l..
Answer-There ~ no present need
for worrying over United States Steel
sinking fund per cent bonds. They
have sold off slightly in sympathy with
the general investment market, which
has been rather heavy of late. If you
bought the bonds for investment and
you feel that your principal and in
terest are safe, don't pay too much at
tention to current prices. The bonds
are all right They have sold a great
deal higher and possibly will again be-

How to Figure Bond Returns

Question-Will you please advise me re-
garding the purchase of Japanese bonds
which I notice are quoted very low. Why
are they so far below par, and are they a
cent elevcn-ycar bond at So on January l.
1920; what will be the rate of return on
the money! Will you please give me the
formula for arriving at this result that
may USE it in other cases? What is the
difference in value to me Of Japanese bonds
with the English and the French stamp
There is a difference in the quoted price
on the 4s.-C. NJ. B.
Answer--There has been considerable
selling of japanese bonds by Europe,
this depressing the price. The bonds
appear to be we'll secured. Japan is a
great nation and we know of nothing
at the present time which leads us to
think the bonds will not be paid at
maturity. The purchase Of the bonds
at SO would give an approximate re-
turn of 8h per cent per annum if held
until maturity. This figure is arrived
at by dividing SO into a, this giving the
yield per annum, about 5.8 per cent
The difference between the amount paid
and the price at maturity (about $975)
divided by the number of years the
bond runs will give the per annum Cap
proximate) yield on the amortization.
This figures 26 per cent, which, added
to the b8 per cent, equal about 8N
pound interest should be taken into &C
count. There is no difference in value
Of the various stamped bonds Which
ever may be bought cheapest are the
ones to buy. II there is selling of
French stamped bonds the price Of that
| bond declines on account Of the press
ure on the market.
