Perplexed by Southern Pacific

Question: venture to ask you again
what Is the best thing to do with the
rights I have as stockholdcr IN tho
Southern Pacific Company? Some years
ago | bought 100 shares OF this stock and
have been we'll satisfied with the return OF
.. per cent upon my investment. but when
1T comes to putting UP another $500 In
an oil proposition. I confess I don't know
what to do. Some friends are no enthusi
astic about the future prospects of the
Pacific on Company that they advise mo
TO sell out my Southern Pacific stock and
convert the entire proceeds into the oil
stock but my own Judgment Is to hold
the southern Pacific stock and exercise
my right to take 90 shares Of tho new
COMPANY Kindly give mo your best opin-
ION as to what ought to dor. w. S.
Answer--It all depends upon whether
you wish to become a stockholder in
an oil company. We know very little
about this property. 1t is said to be
very valuable, but practically all oil
stocks are highly speculative. Do you
wish to enter the speculative game !?
If not, sell your rights and remain
stockholder in Southern Pacific.

Poor Man Loser on Big Four

Question-On the advice Of a man who, 7
thought. knew what he was talking about.
I purchased few months ago 200 shares
Of the Cleveland. Cincinnati, Chicago g.
st. Louis Railroad at 5sh. This man told
mo tho stock would soon pay dividend
as 1t had ample funds and the railroad
was making money. He also said this road
would go in the New York Central at tho
par value Of its stock. which would be paid
in New York Central bonds. DO you know
anything about this, and can you give mo
should do in view Of the fact that the
stock has gone down 20 points? am q
poor man and must make my investment
bring me In some return.-G. R. II.
Answer-The Cleveland, Cincinnati,
Chicago & St. Louis Railroad is now
part Of the New York Central Lines
The New York Central Railroad already
owns $30,207, 700 Of the outstanding
S47,02o,70O common stock The B <
Four was one Of the few roads to make
money during Federal control. Many
rumors were current regarding a mer-
ger with the New York Central Rail-
road, but nothing definite has been an
nounced as yet. Practically all railroad
stocks are speculative, particularly at
this time, because the railroad situa-
tion is still uncertain. If you cannot
afford to speculate you should not pur-
chase such stock, but should confine
yourself to good bonds and mortgages
and sound, seasoned preferred stocks.

100, 900 Auto Workers
Still Idle i'm Detroit
Several Plants Reopened After
Inventory, but With Forces
Largely Decreased

DETROIT, Jan. 4-"Despite the fact
that several Detroit automomile plants
reopened yesterday after inventory,
they did 80 with vastly decreased forces
and 100000 fewer men are employed
here now than was the case two weeks
ago." George W. Grant, secretary of
the Employers Association Of Detroit,
said to-day. "a net increase Of only
1000 men have been added to the
working forces of the factories in the
last few days"
Mr.. Grant said surveys concluded
to-day showed only about $4,000 auto
mobile workers employed in Detroit.
In normal time t'1e NUN 'er IS n'sort
100000. The closing Of the Ford and
Dodge factories mas swe..ea tne n4l.-
ber Of unemployed during the last two
weeks, Mr.. Grant said.
