The receivers income account which
shows a result of two months of rental
payment by the government, six months
OF guaranteed net anc four months Of
independent operation shows $1.S2S. 900
gross income after the deduction of
operating expenses and taxes and after
making adjustments for interest for
which ths receiver was liable. Taking
INTO account rental for the first two
months, balance due on rental for 1918
and 1919, and balance due on the guar
anty period, the receiver showed q
profit Of S5,620,0OO.
DURING the period Of receivership a
large amount of deferred naintenan nee
work was taken up and the phvsicaI
CONDITION Of tho property was greatly
improved. Notwit hstanding these sta
tlstlcs are now more than seven months
Ola, they have significance in forecast
ing the prospects of successful opera
ton OF the property under the reor-
ganlzatlon plan, since they show the
capacity Of the property as rehabiIi
tated. The total tonnage Of freight
moved IN 1920 was l7.24S,0OO tons. an
increase Of 3369,00o tons over 1919.
Inc average revenue per ton per mile
was 50 mills in 1920, which was the
same as the average for 1919 in sDite
OF the fact that the increase in freight
rate went into effect the last OF Au-
gust, I92O. The explanation, Of course.
IS that changes in character OF traffic
onset the increased rate in effect for
four months.
The increased business that the prop
erty did is most strikingly illustra ted
by the change in freight density. In
1920 this was 1880 tons and in 1910
1t was 1910, 600 tons.

Answer-You have picked out FIVE
bonds which yield from over ga per
cent to over 8 per cent. They are Of
varying degrees of safety, but are ali
IN class, we think, where Weld ia
placed ahead Of the consideration Of
safety. Assuming that you bought one
bond each of these five, your current
income would be $500, which is about
SO on the investment. If you, on the
other hand, bought five conservative
bonds, where safety was the first con-
sideration. you could TT them at
price to yield little less than per
cent, q difference of less than $50
year. If just one of the bonds that you
have picked out failed to pay interest,
your loss in income would be more than
the difference between the income on
the semi-speculative bonds and the
sound ones, and you would have lost
presumably from $500 to $500 of your
principal. In our opinion this kind of
investment is not worth while for one
in your position, but you are the one
to judge whether to take the risk.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1921-08-17

Answer-The Chinese Imperial Gov
ernment Hu Kug Railway 5s, due
1851, are sterling bonds, and interest
and principal are payable in sterling
or, in New York, in United States GOLD
at the rate Of exchange Of the day on
London. A per cent bond means that
a 600 bond pays s5 semi-annually in
interest. Thus, if you bought 5000
bond at present quotation you would
pay $3.50 for it and would receive semi
annually IS, which would be equivalent
1T the present rate Of exchange to
s17.80. We doubt if a conservative
bank would give you over 60 per cent
Of the market price on loan unless it
was bank which made good allow
ance for your own good credit stand
ing with it. Dome Mines. selling at
10 per cent premium, has fuctuated
about 10 points this year. 1t has
good market on the Stock Exchange,
and we think a demand loan for 80 per
cent CT its market value would be
safe.

Measure Gives State
Highway Board Power
Change Polk Route

House bill S12, passed by the
house of representatives Wednes-
day afternoon takes up less than
half a page of printed space in the
official records, its consideration
by the house Wednesday afternoon
caused the floods of controversy
and oratory to rage for long per-
iod. 1t was passed, although there
were twentyfour dissenting votes.
The bill empowers the state
highway commission to make such
changes in the location of the state
highway routes in the Independ-
ence-Dallas Monmouth Corvallis
district as in its judgment and dis
erection will result in better align
ment, more advantageous and
economical highway construction,
or will contribute to and afford a
better or more serviceable system
Of highways than under the pres
ent statutory locations.
The bill was bitterly opposed by
Representative Fletcher of Polk
county, who reviewed the fight
which the neighborhoods mem
TONED have made to resist the ac-
tion of the highway commission in
using its discretion in locating the
highway on a more direct line
than the one originally provided.

Varsity Students
Plan Campaign
For Gymnasium

At a rOusing meeting of the as
sOciated student body Of william
ette university held In the chapel
Of Waller hall last night, S2273
was pledged by PA students for
the purpose Of constructing a
gymnasium within the near fU-
ture.
According TO the plan adopted
by the student body at the meeting
each student registered in the col
lege Of liberal arts, and law must
contribute SO, or more. By OctO-
Der /; also circular letter is TO
be mailed to ex-students and alum
nj Of willamette university for a
similar pledge. The success Of the
plan will insure $4,000 for the
gymnasium fund.
Although Coach Mathews did
not designate the source. he init
mated las night that a gift Of
SIS. 200 from some friend Of the
university is certain which would
increase the fund 10 s25.0OO. And
Coach Mathews believes that S25.-

On motion approved by al

that they were for all anti-Japa-

The motion was made after the
speech delivered by Senator Thorn.
as at the associations luncheon
held at the Marion hotel this noon,
and in which the speaker warned
his hearers of the coming of the
yellow men.
He described the buying and
rental policy of the japanese as he
had observed it in his own conf
munity.
THE Japs are here" said the
senator. The vanguard from Cali
fornia has reached the Rogue riv-
er. and they are taking up some of
the best lands of that district" He
said that there were now about 500
Orientals in Medford now, and in
certain parts of the town where
they had pursued their scattered
policy of buying and leasing all
rOpeIty values mad vanished.
'In view Of the warnings that
Oregon has received concerning

The legislative committee o. the

made by Thomas. was instructed to
look into the senate bill providing
that berry boxes shall not be used
twice in any case. 1t was brought
out that If the farmer who sells his
berries to the canney was forced to
use new containers each time the
price Of berries woud advs nee from
two or three cents a pound. No
was made against the
provision Of the bill that stated the
retail dealer must not use berry
boxes over again.
