Hartford European loan debenture As.
due 1922, are eXchangeabie par for par

II the company put a mortgage en- it's
main line from New York to Spring

dence, these debentures would be
equally secured with the new bonds,
and the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford made such a mortgage and issued
hereunder total of sos, 600 900 bonds
to the Government. The New Haven is
in very difficult situation and we
think the bonds are speculative. Since
the New Haven has shown almost no
earning power for it's bond interest at
present, there is no way of figuring
the margin Of safety for these bonds.

Considers High Yield Bonds

Question-wi1l you please advise m. az
TO the safety of the following bonds Lord
Dry Dock Companys S., Abitt Power and
Paper Company's Ss, unit of Equitable In
Building, New York City, preferred ga co M.
sisting Of two preferred and one common
&C. d. G.
Answer-The Lord Dry Dock first IS
are secured by a first m ortgage on the
New York harbor real estate and nlsrs
OF the company and on the ship repair
plants at Fields Point, r. l., and Wee
hawken, N. j., and are a second mort
gage on the company's plant at Provi-
dence, r. l. The fact that the bonds
are due in series beginning at 500. 900
IN 1922 and running up to $500. 900. due
annually 1882 and 1884, has two az
vantages. Yoq can buy series matur-
ing at date that is convenient for
you and the equity back Of your bonds
IS increasing as the company pays off
each series. Abti Power & Paper
Sinking Fund IS, due 1881, are secured
by'a general mortgage subject to ST.
$4,000 prior liens. In 1920 the Abiti
Fower and Paper earned $3.50, 900
gross and $4,250,000 net, and that wear
It's interest charges were only S5o2.OOo.
Since the close of 1920, however. TIE
paper situation has become steadily
worse. AS you will see, the yield On
both Lord Dry Docks and Abiti Power
IS is rather high, but they appear to
be very fair bonds. The National Equ--
table investment stocks are said 20
nave good earning power. They are of
doubtful marketability.

In Wall Street
See Bargains in Bonds

One of the principal bond houses in
the financial district is so convinced
that high grade investment securities
are now selling on more attractive
basis than they will be for many
years to come, unless the unexpected
takes place, that it is departing from
its usual policy in several particulars
in order to help its clerks and other
employees to take advantage Of exist
ing quotations. This house, which ira
ditionally has discouraged it's en-
ployees from getting into debt for any
reason. is permitting them to borrow
from the concern to purchase bonds
and pay them off in weekly install
ments. The firm does not regularly en-
gage in partial payment business and
is doing it only as an accomm odation
for its own people. 1t permits employ
ees to borrow to buy only high grade
issues.

Sugar Stocks Show Strength

Continued good demand for refined
sugar and prospects of an advance in
the price of the raw COMMONLY by
the Cuban commission served to
strengthen sugar stocks yesterday.
The trade believes that the commits
sion has been waiting only for refiners
to turn from the Porto Rican crop to
the Cuban before advancing quotations
above the three-cent level. The COM
mission was severely censured in many
quarters for it's failure to dispose of
the Cuban crop early in the year, when
it checked buying activity by advances
in prices. Apparently this mistake will
not be repeated, for the commission is
still supplying orders at $ cents St
roundabout 2S5 cents f. o. b. Cuba
and it is asserted that this price leaves
little room for profit. If good business
can be started at this level and main
tanned at slightly higher figure, how
ever, it is believed that the trade will
be satisfied with the results.
