good earnings for the last few years.
The notes in both cases appear to be
amply secured and We regard them as
very fair short term investments. The
Miller Rubber Company has reported
large earnings for the last three years,
the year 1919 being the largest in its

Buying Bonds on Margin

Question-Does the present ou+>ook
Justify investing in bonds? II so. Would
you advise long or short term issues and
which ones Is a convertible issue to be
preferred at ths present time? Would vou
name some first class convertible bonds on
which the conversion clause is of value?
Is II advisable TO buy bonds margin
OF ~ per cent? Do trust companies handle
such accounts. or are brokers the oniy
I. T r
Answer-We believe the presen.
offers exceptionally good opportunities
TO purchase bonds While short term
issues return high yields. consideration
should be given to the fact that when
they mature longterm bonds probably
Will not be procurable a such attrac-
tive rates. We frequently have listed
IN this column bonds which, in our
opinion, offer excellent opportunities
for permanent investments. The fol-
leges which may prove of value: South
crn Pacific convertible 5 per cent, Cuba
Cane Sugar convertible per cent,
American Telephone convertible s per
cent. We see no reason why it would
rot be advisable to purchase bonds on
a conservative margin. Interest rates
are high at present. however, and it
would be we'll possibly to pay on your
debit balances from time to time.
Trust companies are unlikely TO handle
margin accounts the same way as
brokerage houses. You could borrow
money at trust company on bonds as
collateral for YOUR loan. 1t would be
best to consult the particular trust
company you have in mind.

READ ABOUT THE
BIG AUCTION SALE

Ten thousand acres Of fine truck
land to be sold at auction at Purvis,
Miss, on July %, 1920. This fine
body Of land will be sold in tracts Of
40, so, 100 and GAO acres each, max
ing it possible to buy any size tract
Of land you wish. These lands have
been selling as low as $500 per acre
at private sale and win continue to
be offered at private sale at these
prices until July %, and on this date
the balance will be sold to the highest

This is one of the finest trucking sec

$4,000 from six acres Of Irish potatoes
and then planted the same ground in
corn. About $4,000 worth of beans

These beans were grown on lao acres

money from sugar cane, oats, corn,
dairy industry and stock raising.
These lands are highly recommended

COTTON CROP CONDITION
7s.s PER CENT. NORMAL

The entire cotton belt, with hardly
a local exception, enjoyed favorable
weather during the past two weeks
and the crop made good to excellent
progress in each of the 10 principal
cotton growing states, says the Mem
phis Commercial Appeals crop cor
respondent in the July ~ issue Of
that paper.
Reports sent in by Commercial APP
peal correspondents indicate that the
condition Of the crop as Of July was
1873 per cent. of a normal, compared
with 69.3 per cent. at June 25. Boil
weevil and lateness averaging from
two to four weeks constitute about
the only drawbacks. Boil weevil is
scattered in large numbers over an
area more extensive than last year
and are menacing, but SO far serious
damage has been confined mostly to
southern portions of Central Texas,
and to Southern Alabama.
Picking is under way in South
Texas and the plant is blooming to
about the northern limits of the belt.
although some planting is reported
to be still in progress on low lands in
Mississippi.
While thunder showers, followed by
plenty of sunshine, will probably not
be detrimental but beneficial, the
crop needs hot, dry weather to the
point where important damage would
begin in order to check boil weevil.
Fields are clean mostly and the
plant healthy and the fruiting fair to
excellent except where fruiting has
not yet started or boil weevil actually
interferes. While the crop is back
ward and in many sections small it
is growing rapidly. Portions of Cen
trail Texas reDort that the plant is
too rank.

BRITISH RADICALS
IN LABOR Faction
GIVEN BODY BLOW
In Trade Union Congress Miners
Strike Proposal Defeated
by Millions of Votes.
By JOHN S. STEELE,

Chicago Tribune Foreign News Service
London, March 19-The radicals Of the
British labor movement have suffered
the heaviest defeat on record in the vote
Of the special Trade Union congress at
its meeting in London which was sum
moned to consider the demand by the
miners for a national strike to enforce
naturalization of the mines. Although
the miners had voted in favor of q strike
by large majority the day before, the
representatives of the organized work
ingmen of Great Britain turned the strike
proposal down by majority of $780,
600 votes.
This result was a great triumph for
the old fashioned constitutional labor
suffered recently. It showed that while
in minor matters British trade unionists
might listen to and even follow the ex-
tremists they had no use for them or
their leadership when really serious mat
ters were dealt with.
Triumph for Thomas.
The vote was a personal triumph for
]. a. Thomas, the railwaymen's leader,
and ]. F. Clynes. the former food con-
troller, both Of whom had pointed out
that national strike would be playing
the game of the government.
The man who would profit most by
such a strike is not here but in Downing
street." said Mr. Clynes. He would re-
ply with a general election at which he
could rally the whole country against la
hor We would be giving him just the
issue he wants
The next step on the part Of the min.
which is quite likely to be conceded to
them. The labor party as whole will
concentrate on the political campaign
making naturalization the chief plank of
the platform.
1t is interesting to note that among
the spectators on the platform at the
Trade Union congress were Lord and
millionaires. No politicians in England
have the confidence of the labor men to
greater degree than Lord AstDr and
his wife and it has often been rumored
that they intended to join the labor par

they sympathize deeply with the workers
and understand their problems.

railway strike in Britain.
Thomas was the leader OF the strike
and he was, as he has always been, a
moderating influence. The wild men
seemed to get control, however. and ev-

were turned down. One evning Thomas,
