values at which such stocks are car
ried on the books by slightly over
$50, 100000, or the equivalent OF about
$50 share on the s63,37S,355 Du Pont
common stock outstanding The sum
of s1O,342, Alb was charged off last year
as depreciation of inventories Of raw
materials and finished product, due to
the abrupt decline in prices during the
latter part of 1920. The report stated
that this was written off without dis
turbing the profits for 1920, because
during previous years, when prices
were increasing, the directors had set
aside from the current profits an
amount sufficient to meet such an ex-
pected decline.

Fluctuations during the week were
over a wide range, being strong on
Monday, when a favorable settlement

Sugar Price Boost Expected

Another jump in the price of sugar,
both raw and refined this week would
not surprise the trade. The with
withdrawal from the market of the
Cuban sales committee after the dis
posal of-its lot of $4,000 tons on
basis of s cents cost and freight was
taken to indicate higher quotation
when it reentered the market, which
it is expected to do this week. Should
an advance of Il Of cent be made, it
is probable that reliners would follow
with slight advance. The stronger
tone for sugar results from increased
inquiry for refined at retail on the
theory that prices will be higher and
the successful Withholding of the new
crop from the market. Compa paratlvely
little raw sugar has been offered for
sale despite the fact that large guam
titles have been received at Cuban
ports for shipment. The uncertain
tone Of the future market here indi-
Gates that there is still some doubt in
the trade as to the ability Of the sales
committee to continue on the policy
of forcing prices up by restricting
shipments here.

The Test of q Railroad

It is no criticism Of an Individual

charges That is the distinguishing

There are, however, two important
tests which may be applied. Is the
company one. with strong enough credit
to be able to tide over year or two
of unfavorable conditions. The Union
Pacific and the Seaboard Air Line may
be in the same class when it comes to
earning interest, but they are not equal
when it comes to a matter of new
ynancing. This is an extreme case. but
the test can be applied to any railroad
A test of the ultimate value OF rail
