Gold Mines Not Prospcrinr

Question--Kindly give me Information re-
garding Alaska Gold Mines and Alaska Ju-
resu. hold 200 shares of Alaska Gold and
100 shares of Juneau; paid more than the
present price. What is the outlook? Do you
think 1t advisable to sell them at loss, or
Ia It safer to hold them? Why have these
stocks been SO low the last four years? Is it
anything to be alarmed about IL G.
Answer-Your stocks are speculative.
Gold mining has not been as prosper
Gus as many other lines Of business for
the reason that gold has not advanced
in price, while operating costs have
materially advanced. That is probably
Why your stocks have been so low. The
outlook is none too alluring for stocks
of this character unless there is de-
cided change in conditions.

Record Trade in Floor
Covering Is Predicted
Manufacturers Cautious About
Selling Far Ahead; Price
Advances Exnlained

Jobbers of floor coverings expect to
repeat or surpass the banner business
of 1919, during the coming year. ac-
cording to opinions expressed yester-
day at the second annual convention
OF the National Wholesale Floor Cover
ing Association at the Hotel Astor.
Bennett II. Tobey, of the Firth Carpet
Company; Howard Sprague, of the Rox-
bury Carpet Company, and Richard
Hirst, of the Hirst- Rogers Company, ex-
planned the price advances of from
5 to 10 per cent made on January by
manufacturers by stating that the in
creases were intended to make up a
lack of good profits during the first
nine months Of 1919 and possible in
creases in production costs for the next
three months, during which the new
prices will prevail. Manufacturers are
proceeding cautiously in selling their
product far in the future, they said,
because of their inability to make long
term contracts for supplies. Produc-
ton of carpets and rugs now is between
so and 60 per cent to normal on an
average.

Reporting Quotations

Notwithstanding to rules of the New
York Stock Exchange. has member the
right TO sell 100-sharc lots of stock without
thu transaction appearing in the Official
records Of the exchange for the day III G..
Answer--There are no Official rec
ords OF transactions on the New York
Stock Exchange. When broker sells
100 or more shares he is supposed to
have the sale printed on the tape.
Often in the rush of business he fails
to do so. But If sale actually takes
place and it is not printed, your broker
can have it printed, if not on the day it
occurred, then on the sales sheet (un-
Officially, which all New York Stock Ex-
change firms subscribe to. If your
broker did not report the purchase Of
stock to you on the day after the sale
took place it would seem that you have
just cause Of complaint, but the fact
that the sale was not printed would
make no difference.

s,uer 'ne security ample, and also whether
the terms of the loan require that the Sc
curit'es pledged shall at all times have n
market value fully equal to the amount ~
the notes issued7-H. C. r.
Answer-Great Britain is feeling the
eHects OF the war. Her debt has in.
creased enormously. On account of her
position Great Britain finds it neces-
sh1y SIny. TO pay rather high for her money.
Vnoer the terms of the United KinS-
dom loan of 1921 the British rovern- e
ment must maintain margin of 20

renewed nervousness over money mar

In a Crowded Field

Question-Can you advise me as TO the
safety Of buying shares in the Securities
Acceptance Corporation, incorporated in
the State Of New York?~H. j.
Answer-Thc Securities Acceptance
Corporation is the newest Of the pro-
motions of Count Reginald II. Ward,
who was a member of the former Stock
Exchange firm Of Clark, Ward & Co.,
which failed. Tho company was organ
lied with capital of $2,000,000 for the
purpose OF entering into Investments
in all lines Of business by making loans
to new and old projects able to furnish
security in the form of mortgages on
chattels or realty. Chief among its
plans for garnering large profits
through such loans is the lending of
money on automobile sales and con-
signmcnts, which field seems to be al
ready pretty crowded. II appears to
us that IN the conduct OF the COM
pAny's business the directors have IL
great deal Of latitude az to the charac-
ter and size Of it's Investments, and We
regard the stock as speculation.
