THE ETHIOPIAN DEcLARANT.

Without cant" and Partially" as
a race of people (Ethiorians) we
must sooner or later learn that when
ever any pernicious meddler (black
or white) does an act which threat
ems the business career, life and ex-
istence of our Ethiorians he becomes
at once an object of censure by the
infinite powers of Ethiorianism. In
a recent racial gossip, too much time
had been spent worrying over "a"
grade and &c" grade milk, when it
should have been spent on things and
matters more vital between real bust
ness, social and racial relations.
Such appear to be the scandal
afloat, which could have been avoid
ed had the most cultured culprit
weighed and clearly studied the de-
murrer in the case. But, true to form,
such has been not only the fault with
a few of those among that flock, but
the default, which has defeated so
many aspirants, hitherto, from being
the criterion or standard-bearers of
race idealism. They fail to realize
or see because, striving as they do
to hold themselves aloof and uncon-
cerned about those who would not
exchange places with them-the mid
die mani the vital points in real
business, social and racial proclivi
ties. This is their fate.

Westinghouse, p. R. R., Middle States

Question-Wiu you kindly tell me what
your opinion is in regard to the following
named stocks as Investments Westing-
house Electric, PENNSYLVANIA Railroad.
Middle States Oil? What are the par
values of the above named stocks? Is 4
per cent dividend paid on every 800
worth of stock in the Westinghouse Manu-
featuring Company. or is it paid per
share? wish TO secure some good, safe
ont The Denver & RIO Grande preferred
stock at its present value or would you
advise holding it?-A. Men
Answer-Perhaps estinghouse and
Pennsylvania may be classed as bust
ness mems investments. The stocks
are somewhat sensitive to earnings
and other developm ents- so than
preferred stocks and bonds. Middle
States Oil has been very good Garner,
but We cannot recommend oil pro-
ducing companies stocks for invest
ment The business is far too uncer-
tain The par value of the first two
issues is $50. Westinghouse pays 8
per cent, or S4 per share, while Penn
sylvania pays per cent. or SO per
share. The par value OF Middle States
is $40. 1t pays 16 per cent, or $3.50
share. If you desire good safe in
vestments we believe you would do
better to contine yourself to we'll Sc
cured bonds and seasoned preferred
stocks. At present we see very little

Although the Japanese government
has assisted in the formation of svn-
dlcate which is attempting to hold the
psrlces to fixed basis by the process
OF buying in distressed offerings. it is
Ielt here that if the present dulness
IN the silk trade continues for the next
two or three months the Japanese will
not be able to hold silk at the pegged
prices and will be forced to accept ad-

The future course Of raw silk prices,

Is no sign Of revival in trading and

can be called safe. No interest is be-
ing paid on them, and it is question
as to when it will be paid Affairs in
Mexico are still in chaotic state
While all bonds are payable when they

issues as highly speculative. Many
people believe that Mexico is on the
road to recovery, but the uncertainty
Of the situation renders practically all
