buttermilk and combining it with a
perfect cream, which you can buy in

first class drug store by simply asking
for "FoWard's' Buttermilk Cream.
There is no secret about it nor is
there any doubt about the result--it' s

Acquire Control of
Air Brake Company
Concern to Manufacture and
Sell New Device; Officers
Elected

Kidder. Peabody & Co., John F. AL
vord and George W. Goethals & Co.,
Inc, have acquired a controlling in
terest in the Automatic Straight Air
Brake Company. Under their direction,
it was announced yesterday, the COM
pany will enter actively into the manu-
facture and sale of its new device.
The construction of the new brake,
it is asserted, is such that it will give
uniform brake cylinder pressure and
uniform brake resistance simultane-
ously on all cars in the train, both
standard passenger trains and the
modern long freight train. At the same
time, the company states, there can be
no undesired emergency application of
the brakes nor failure to release the
brakes when desired.
John F. Alvord has been elected pres
ident and a director of the company,
and Harry I. Miller and Harry B. Hunt
ce-presidents. William L. Benedict,
of Kidder, Peabody & Co.; Robert E.
Graham, Of George w. Goethals & Co.,
Inc; Edward D. Kenna, Robert Winsor,
Of Kidder, Peabody & Co.; Carl H.
Canter, Harry l. Miller, James D. Nor
timer and Morgan ]. O'Brien were
elected directors.
The stock Of the company has been
placed in fve-year voting trust, with
Messrs. Alvord, Benedict, Kenna, Mil
ler and Mortimer as voting trustees.

Curb Market
Depressed by
Profit Taking
Heavy Trading in Low.
Priced Oils; Homers Do
Better ON Report of Bring
ing In of New Cusher

Heavy trading took place in the low
priced oil shares on the Curb yester-
day. As whole the market closed
lower as the result or profit-takfnr in
the afternoon whicn wiped out most
OF the early gains.
The Homer field oils did better as a
general thing, and Simms developed d
strength on advices from Louisiana to
the effect that Shaw we'll No. 6, which
ceased flowing some time ago, came
back Thursday with production esti-
mated at 10000 barrels day.
lnvincible sold up to 81, but reacted
point in the afternoon. The Low
isiana Oil Refining Company, sub
sidiary Of the Invincible, is said to be
moving about $4,000 barrels of oil
daily from its producing properties in
the Homer field. The company has
two four-inch lines from the feld to
its loading rack and tank farm. A
new six-inch line is being laid.
General Asphalt after selling up to
100 n reacted to 102 at the close,
United States Steamship was active
around g. United Profit Sharing was
steady. The annual report of the com
pany just issued shows net profits sub
ject to Federal taxes Of $407 ,13o, equal
to 24.8 cents share on the stock.

Will Change It's Name

Queston-Has the American Ship and
Commerce Navigation Corporation changed
its name to the Kerr Navigation Corpora
ton and is Kerr Steamship Company. Inc.
purchase at $50 q share? Gould you also
advise me Of the earnings Of the Midvale Steel
Company for 1919? Would you advise a
purchase at $44 to $45 share for invest
ment?-W. H. L.
Answer--The American Ship and
Commerce Navigation Corporation will
change its name to Kerr Navigation
Corporation. We find no record Of Kerr
Steamship Company, so assume it is
the same company as the Kerr Naviga-
tion Corporation. This company must
not be confused with the American
Ship and Commerce Corporation, which
tion company was organized September
4, 1919, and acquired eight ships owned
by the Kerr company. The considera-
tion was 10000 shares Class "A' and
$4,000 shares Class "B" stock Of the
American Ship and Commerce Naviga-
tion Corporation. The latter has m
authorized capital Of 10000 shares
Glass "a" and 10000 shares Glass
"B" stock Of no par. OF which $4,000
shares Glass "B" was purchased by
the American Ship and Commerce Cor
poration at s100 q share. The COM
pany whose stock you mention has az
yet issued no income statement. Its
income will consist of dividends that
may be received from its interests in
controlled companies, including the one
mentioned above, and the Cramp COM
pany, Of which it owned 72.4 per cent.
Until such a statement is issued it is,
of course, difficult to form an opinion
on the stock. Midvale Steel showed
earnings of $10,3S7,4ls for 1919, com
pared with $29, ,163, ,408 for 1918. This
Is equal to about $5.19 on the capital,
against $14.81 for the year previous,
The stock is speculative and, in our
opinion, not in the investment class.

Switch Not Advised

ouestion-Will you kindly give me your
opinion on the following: own twenty
shares s OF Great Northerf Railroad. but "A
mat company has not earned It's dividends
TOR the last two years do you think It would
be advisable and the beat thing TO do n sx.
change my Great Northern Railroad for
Northern Pacific Railroad. which il selling
ior about the same price, pays the same rata
OF dividend and Ii earning It and over. ao 7
an..t. am toid; Your advice will be greatly a ap-
Answer-Too much Importance
should not be attached to the earnings
OF roads under government operation.
The railroad administration ran the
railroads in its own way. There was
undoubtedly diversion Of traffic and
other causes which may have materially
changed q roads earning power during
this period. While Northern Pacific
did better for the last two years than
Great Northern. we are not sure that
there will be such difference in their
earnings under private control. We
are Of tho opinion that Great Northern
Will be able to maintain itself under
the new legislation.

New York Air Brake

Qucstion-The writer would appreciate any
information you can give him with refer
ence to stock of the New York Air Brake
Company and the preferred stock of the
Great Northern Railroad.-T. r. H.
Answer-New York Air Brake has
$10,000,000 stock, par 500. During the
war period the company's profits were
very large. In 1915, S2.15 per cent; in
1917, 1894 per cent; in 1918, 2052 per
cent; in 1919, 6.24 per cent. The COM
pany paid per cent for years, but in
1915 it was increased to 1111 per cent;
in 1917 and 1918, 20 per cent: in 1919,
10 per cent. The stock is highly specu-
lative, fuctuating over a wide range.
Great Northern Railway has outstand-
ing $249, 9,478,250 stock; all are class
called preferred. Earnings have fuc-
tuated from 1893 per cent in 1918 to
1859 per cent in 1913. .The road has
not done we'll under government con-
troll, but this may have been caused by
several things, such as diversion Of
traffic, etc. The road should benefit
under the new legislation, and we be-
lieve it will be able to maintain itself
as it did before the government took
control.

Wants to Speculate, But.

Question--Wll you kindly let me know
your opinion. Of investing $4,000 in low
priced railroad stocks which are more likely
to advance Name them. Do you consider
low priced railroad stock a risk Of losing !?
can't afford to take very large chances. as
my capital is not large.-P. R.
Answer-Our Interpretation of in
vestment is purchasing for income pur-
poses. Speculation is buying for q
rise. with the intention of selling If Il
sufficient rise occurs. If you purchase
low priced railroad stocks you are
therefore specializing. 1t matters not
If you buy outright or on margin. 1t
is yet to be seen how the railroads will
fare under the new legislation That
in itself places most railroad stocks in
the speculative class. Many people
purchased railroad stock last fail, be-
lieving them to be cheap. Yet prices
dropped considerably afterward. For
speculative investment purposes we
should rather advise the purchase of
certain low priced railroad bonds.
Many of these yield good returns at
present and they are certainly better
secured than low priced railroad stocks.
Among these are Missouri Pacific per
cent, Rock Island refunding per cent,
st. Louis & San Francisco prior lien
49, bs and 6s and Southern Railway As.

Chinese Bonds

Queston-Will you kindly advise me re-
sarding Chinese Government. HUI Kue Rail-
way and City of Toxic. l951 and 1852 re-
spectivey. with regard to security also
whether payable in New York and United
States currency? What is your opinion re-
garding the safety of this investment? p
J. j. J.
AnswerThe Chinese Government S
per cent bonds are due June Is, 1851.
There are outstanding 100000. Be-
ginning June 10, 1922, an amount suffi-
cient to retire the entire issue by
maturity shall be applied annually to
the redemption of the bonds at par.
The issue is secured by first charge
(together with the second series) upon
certain provincial revenues. They are
payable, principal and interest, at the
current rate of sterling exchange in
New York, London, Paris and Berlin.
The bonds offer speculative invest
opportunities, although we do not re-
gard them as high grade
