chicago Great Western

Question-During the 1907 panic bought
among other stocks 100 shares Of Chicago
Great Western at about 10. Since then
the company has been reorganized and |
paid an assessment of $1,000 and received
fifteen shares preferred and sixty. shares
common for the 100 shares Of the old com
pany. am still holding this and would
ask your advice whether to sell at present
quotations or hold 1t for further recovery.
! am in such position that do not have
to sell at the present price.-H. c. o.
Answer-The only reason for you
to hold on to your preferred and com
mon stock Chicago Great Western
would be either the hope that at some
future time it would sell higher in the
market, or that the stock would pay
dividends some time in the future. You
evidently bought it as speculation.
We do not advise in regard to specula
ton, but the question of whether or
not you should sell it is not purely
speculative. The market price of your
holdings recently was about $735. 1t
is quite possible as purely spccula-
tive proposition that if the railroads
show a considerable improvement in
earnings, as we are inclined to think
they will during the next six months,
the market price of railroad stocks will
go up. In that case you might get a
few more dollars for your holdings.
On the other hand, the improvement
in railroad earnings might be only tenn
porary, and reduction in freight rates

very slight possibility Of even the pre-

AS speculative proposition we think
you would do better to sell at the

the full knowledge that you do NOT

Question: hold the following: Twenty

note. 1926; $1,000 Westinghouse Electric
pany note. 1923; Canadian National Rail-
ways 6h per cent, 1916; Denmark 8 per
cent, 1915; $4,000 Liberties distributed in
tate MORTGAGES. I have $500 to invest,
What would you suggest? VIII you advise
me as to what you think OF the foregoing
list and would you suggest any changes?
How do you regard Middle West Utilities
Company per cent secured gold notes due
s otis ,s Steel d Eompany rst moT pe@s
and Consolidated Textile Corporation first
per cent, due 1914? IN. j. M.
Answcr-Your list of securities is a
good one. We advise you to make no
changes in It. We consider each issue
that you hold good investment. With
the $500 which you wish to invest we
suggest that you buy three good rail-
road bonds, as your list would be bet
ter diversified with few more rails.
We suggest the Northern Pacific Great
Northern joint Burlington collateral
6hs, recently selling around 1919, to
yield about $50; a New York Central
6ebenture per cent, due 1885, recent
ly selling around SO, to yield about
6.80, and Chesapeake & Ohio con-
vertible 5 per cent, due 1916, recently
selling around 83, to yield about GAO.
The last named bond is slightly below
the other two, we think, so far as in
vestment rating is concerned, but we
think that you can afford to have at
least one rail that is not strictly high
grade. We think, too, that it will have
conversion value before the privilege
expires, in 1885. Then we would buy
another public utility. We suggest Bell
Telephone Of Pennsylvania rs, due
1945, recently selling around l05, to
yield about $50. For the remainder
you could wisely add two foreign
bonds, such as one United Kingdom
6h, 1887, recently selling around 88,
to yield about CTS. and one Brazilian
8, 1871, recently selling between SO and
80, to yield about 8.15. The United
Kingdom, of course, ranks right next
to Liberty bonds. The Brazilians have
a somewhat lower rating, in our opin-
ion, but are nevertheless good bond.
Of the securities you mention, we place
Middle West Utilities s., Otis Steel IS
and American Power and Light IS
pretty close together, with CONSOLIDATE
ed Textile Corporation IS somewhat
below. We think you could wisely in
vest in the first two without impairing
the strength of your list.

Durant Motors, biggest Asset

Question--A few Of my friends who are
brokers advised to purchase Durant
Motors stock. both the investment plan and
the stock tho curb. Their product
looks exceptionally good and have loi
of confidence in w. G. Durant; but whai
do you think Of their stock7-W II. @.
Answer-Durant Motors is good
speculation, but it is not to be con-
sidered as an investment, in our opin-
ion. We believe, as you do, that Dur
ant Is a man of exceptional ability
but we believe further that he IL
decidedly the biggest asset of the com
pany. One personality is not big
enough to make an investment out Of

Statewide Movement to Fight Phone
Raise.


Alexandra, La. March 16.-
A statewide movement was
launched at a meeting held here
today to make fight before the
State Railroad Commission for
the reopening of the telephone1
rate case and for the raising of
a fund to fight the case to a fin
ish in the courts, if necessary, in
an effort to have the increase set
aside.
The meeting was composed of
representatives of commercial
and municipal organizations,
members of the police juries and
citizens from almost every Sec

tended.
Among the prominent delegat-
es in attendance were Commits

Moore, of Crowley, vice-presi-

A feature of the morning ses-
sion was an address by City At
torney Kittredge. of New Or
leans, who represented the op-
ponents to the rate increase al

commission. MIR. Kittredge full
.ly went into the case, giving the
facts as they developed at the
hearing before the railroad com
mission. He characterized the
