Passing Of Dividend
Didn't Hurt Stock

Howard Iiazlctt & Son in their weekly
review Of the Wheeling stock market on
Friday said: The outstanding develop
mrnt OF the week in local financial ciI
CIrs WAS the passing OF the current cash
di, idcnd OF Wheeling Steel corporation
common stock. In the light Oh tuture
developments II became very eHAuent
that the passing Of the DIVIDEND was
thuroughly discounted for stock sou
down not the fraction OF PONY. IN
deed II there was any change in leeiihE
1t was for the better for speaking per
sunally We have not had shd-" OF thls
stock for sale At any reasonable price,
any time since the boards failure 10 ACT

story The market invariably PREFERS
bad news uncovered TO d forleorn nope.
We have seen this thing through many
times and II only goes 10 prove mo mar
ketS extreme u!sllkc lot unCei N"'n
things. ,,,
Nothing worse than no dividend could
be expected. 50 the market can ohly
look on one sidn OF Wheeling steel from
now on: and that Is ~ the DAY wheh OIL

men that further price cuts and fu:.
tncr liquidation OF labor can be eApcCteo
before the industry shows signs OF com
ing back to life. There may be Just 4
snnd, better feeling IN STEEL making. but
only q shade. for all authorities agree
that business IS fiat on : back
The feeling ON the market towards
steel STOCKS is very favorable. The pet

UurnuIrkct has bee extremely dull
this week. but there were no further

We are hoping that money matters VIII

TRUCKS FUTURE

for chort trips-Orders hold up

W. s. S,;cHger. manager OF the Sandow
Motor Sales company. located a. llV-
and ll04 Wafer street. In speaking OF
the coming use Of the motor truck says.
The future OF tho motOr truck,
particularly tie Gramm bernstein and
Sandow trucks. Is almost iucStimanle.
Time and again II has been proven that
1t is not only cheaper. but safer and
much more swift TO ship articles by
truck instead Of by rail. wlth.n I radius
Of nifty miles or there abouts.
The railroads arc not particular
q bout handling articles destined to L
short distance. and thus the trunk
which is invaluable IN 50 many in
stances. is slowly but surely replacing
the trains AMI other means OF trans
purtation for Shur, trips. and 1t il but
a question OF time. 50 those who are In
a position TO know. say. until the truck
is SO perfected that the longest trips
may be made swiftly, efficiently and
81 less cost than any other means.

Mr. Gramiu has paid m!nutcst attcnlion

and all the little details that finish a
more high priced truck. are embodied In
our product. and tend 10 make for the
comfort and safety Of the driver. Thus
the Gramm truck gives you really
superior article, better constructed,
more thoroughly equipped than any OF
it's kind and at a price you ordinarily
would pay for the chassis.
There are many business men who
arc In real need OF trucks al this time,
but owing to the disastrous business
period We are experiencing, they arc
holding on buying unit! things pick up

depression. NC have Delivered as many
trucks this year As VIC did last year
and our orders are holding up remark
ably well, which goes - show that when

all along the line. And our trucks Will
