Estimating His Chances

y0n please sr1, let ss me ssrjsy snGw
about due NoFfgR TeSruaFy ss ns Which 1T
chased in 1919 at sS? First-Has the
bend ever defaulted on it's interest? Sec
ond,-Is there very much i danger NO 90 you a
there any specific reason, peculiar to this
road and apart from the general railroad
gene down to 40 recently? Fourth--Do
you think. even in case of interest default
U am not dependent on this income)
$1,000 bond? Or over $500? Fifth--Do
you not think, since this bond sold at 100
as recently as 1912 that it is wise to hold
TO the five I own since am willing
and able to take some chance? Sixth
Would you call this bond a fairly good
semi speculative investment? 1 own other
bonds OF higher caiber. and unless you
know of specific reason why this Is
unwise. would like to keep this issue until
/ can sell it without a loss.-P. l..
Answer-Norfolk Southern Railroad
first and refunding per cent Series A
bonds, due 1861, arc first mortgage on
334 miles of line. This is at the rate
of about $4,000 mile. The road is
not expensively built, so that this is
fairly high rate. Norfolk Southern
is one of the weak roads. 1t is one of
the roads that Congress intended to
help when it passed the transportation
act, but this intention has failed, so
far, to work out in practice. One Of
the most important differences between
the weak roads and. the strong roads,
and especially the weak and short roads
and the strong large roads, is that
if present unfavorable conditions of
railroad operation and wages were to
continue for ii year or two the strong
large roads could raise sufficient new
capital to tide over this period, pre-
sumably, but small weak road proba-
bly, could not. Assume that there was to
be a receivership. and assume that the
railroad on which these bonds are Sc
cured by first mortgage were found to
be of less value than the $4,000 a
mile, the face value of these bonds, is
it conceivable that this road would be
worth as little as $4,000 a mile? We
think not. We think that the road
would be worth more than that, and if
private operation is to continue the
courts would find value for the prop
erty higher than so on the bonds, and
some scheme of rates and wages must
be worked out which will protect bonds
such as these. If, therefore, you want
to take the chance of possible default
In interest if railroad earnings do not
improve. we think that you can do so
with a reasonable expectation that in
the long run you will receive something
worth more than 40 for your bonds.
The bonds have never defsulted in in
terest. u

Woman Doubtful About Great Northern

Question: see you are not favora bly,
disposed toward Great Northern. | have
some of that stock. II in my place would
you rather sell and buy either Southern
Pacific or Delaware & Hudson? | also
have st. Louis Frisco 6 per cent bond.
series G. Would You advise trading for
or per cent Mrs C. H. A.
Answer-We would not advise YOU to
shift from the Great Northern stock
under present circumstances into either
Southern Pacific or Delaware & Hudson
stock. 1t would, however, be sounder
for woman to sell her Great Northern
stock and to buy Northern Pacific Great
Northern bonds, which yield Ga pei
cent. We consider your st. Louis &
San Francisco prior lien per cent
Series c bonds as safe in the long run.
We would prefer either Government
of Switzerland or Belgium in place
of it, but at present prices we think the
St. Louis e. San Francisco prior liens
are good investment for a man or
woman who does not worry about the
investment. The Belgian 7hs are re-
ddemable, $2,000000 face amount wear
ly, at 115. 1t is this speculation which
makes them sell close to the IS, which
have not the premium redemption fea
ture.
New-York tribune., 1921-06-05
Seeks Higher Yield With Safety

Question: own $4,000 Chicago e.
Northwestern general 8 lss. $4,000 Liberty
bonds I'd 4As. The market value of these
bonds is about s11,73s and the yield s6O5
Could you suggest changing these bonds
for others with a better yield and the
same degree OF safety of principal?
j. A. S.
Answer-We consider the Chicago &
Northwestern General 8 1as and Liberty
second a AS to be high grade. You can
get higher yield, we think. with
safety, but you will have to sacrifice
something in the way of rock-bottom
soundness or of sentiment. Kingdom
of Belgium IS, due 1941, recently sold
at 9S1 1a. You could buy five Kingdom of
Belgium IS, due 1941; three New York
Dock first As, due 1851; one Montana
Power first and refunding IS, due 1943,
and one Northwestern Bell Telephone
rs, due 1941, for about what YOU could
sell your Chicago & Northwestern Cen
eral 31as and Liberty bonds for. The
current yield would be only $64O, or s35
year more than you are now getting.
but the yield, if held to- maturity,
would be considerably higher than this
and the maturity would presumably be
in your lifetime. while with the North

Will Re Careful of His $1,000

Question: have $1,000 available for in
vestment Do you consider it good practice
to divide this among several issues
by purchasing baby bonds or do you favor
the 81, 900 denominations? Can you recon-
mend convertible bonds which are Al and
on which the convertible privilege is of
value? How would you invest 81 900 that
you wanted to consider available for an
old age fund I'll. T. F.
Answer-We advise you not to split
your $1,000 into 500 bonds. If you
are so nervous about the $1,000 as to
require diversitication ten ways, the
best thing to do is to put it into Lib
erty bonds, which have all the diversity
there is. We do not recommend $100
pieces for a man who has enough to
buy regular pieces. Your second ques-
tion cannot be answered, because if
there were AL bonds whose convertible
feature were valuable they would be
selling at price to discount that value.
convertible 6s, 1925, for instance, were
recently selling around 90 to yield 6.64
per cent. They are convertible into
common stock at 106; that is, you get
ten shares of stock for $1,000 bonds
plus $50 cash. If the bond were not
convertible it would probably sell to
yield more than per cent. We sug-
gest that you add few dollars to your
$1,000 and buy Chicago Union Station
Series 61s per cent, 1868, recently
selling at 101%. 1t is a first mortgage
and is guaranteed by several railroads,
including the Burlington and the Penn
sylvania, whose high credit makes the
bonds high grade and gives them prob
ably as much practical diversity as
several 500 bonds would.

Worried About Chile Bond

ouestion-At the advice of reput BILE

SIS, 1941 Only recently my attention was
called TO the low value of the Chilean
peso and 1 am wondering if this could
affect the value of these bonds in any way.
investment for a young couple? 1t was
purchased at 90 and is quoted In to-day's $
Tribune at 95. Is there any special reason
for ths?-R. w. B.
Answer-The value of Chilean cur
rency has no direct bearing on the
Chilean bond you hold, because 1T is
payable in principal and interest in
United States money. 1t is very fair
investment, in our opinion, but not so
good as some of the other foreign IS
floated here. The reason the bond has
declined in price is probably because
it is not we'll distributed yet. That is
a technical matter and you need not
worry about it.
