Selling Costs Are Lower

year ended March 's 81 last we're .ns SEA- ss4
327,S51 less than in the preceding year,
net income Of the Westinghouse Elec-
trio and Manufacturing Company,
amounting to s15,20e,341, was equiva-
lent, after preferred dividend require
ments, to $10.58 share on the $780,
S13,e6O, $50 pa. value, common stock
outstanding. This compared with $10.4s
a share earned in the preceding fiscal
year.
The, increase in the surplus was
brought about mainly by decrease Of
$23,695,140 in selling costs. which last
year totaled $120,972,262. Other con-
tributing factors were an increase of
$9S,O72 in other income and falling
off of 1881, 972 in interest charges. The
gross earnings for the year were $780,
o52.o92, compared with s16o,379,s43 in
1919.
Guy E. Trip, chairman Of the board
of directors, said in the report that
there was a gradually increasing de-
mand for the company's products dur
ing the year, especially during the last
six months. The value of untitled or
ders on April l was $71,156,732.

tinuation Of this demand will make
necessary further additional facilities
and still larger working capital"
Mr.. Trip said that the sale of GER
tain of the Westinghouse Company's
investments in foreign countries. to-
gether with its holdings of Liberty
bonds and Victory notes, accounted for
considerable reduction of invest
ments. The balance sheet showed total
investments, as Of March 81, amounting
to S13,216,531, compared with $21,5e2,-
257 at the close of the preceding hscal
period. In his remarks to stockholders
Mr.. Trip continued:
"The development and extension of
the business Of your company, together
with the increased costs of operation
due to higher wages and higher prices
for raw materials, have required q
Large amount of additional capital.
These requirements were met in part
by the sale of certain investments in
other, companies, principally your for
eign holdings, and in part from surplus
earnings retained in the business. At
the close of the fiscal year your com
pany had no outstanding notes pay
able excepting a small balance of ST.
500 Of the issue of 1909, due in 1924,
which are not callable."

Greek Government Finance

1t is stated that for the first time
since 1893 full interest will be paid on
all the older Greek loans, according to
Commerce Reports. This is made pos
sible by the fact that Greek finances
have improved so greatly of late that
there is considerable increase in
revenue. The receipts Of monopolies
in 1919 amounted to 5O,466,O63 drach
mas and in 1918 to 36,264,s61. Customs
returns in 1919 amounted to 5O,376,SS4
