opinion about Chicago a. Alton orst 8s, now
ut 81. Consolidated Textile &c. and Fisk
Rubber ss ct A17 havoc been away In ths
woods for ton days and don't know whether
these questions have been answered before
or not.Mrs. r. w.
Answer-Chicago & Alton first 3s are
an absolute first mortgage on 595
miles Of railroad. This is at the rate
of nearly $4,000 a mile. If they we're
at the rate Of 100000 mile we would
class them as a good investment; as 1t
Is, investment in them partakes Of the
nature of a speculation in the outcome
of the railroad situation generally.
The Consolidated Textile IS appear to
be a good investment. Both mortgage
security and earning power are ade-
quate, we think Under present condi-
tions, we think Fisk Rubber 8s, due
l941, are business mans investment.
If you are in a position to watch bust
ness conditions and to judge Of what
effect changes will have on the auto
mobile and rubber industry, Fisk Rub
Der IS may appear attractive.

Answer-In the expressive language
of the late A. E. F. we fear that you
are simply S. o. L. The communion
tions you have received from Jenkins
Co. are typical of the method used

change for Hydro-United stock, the
whole deal being dressed up in such a
way a. to leave you under the impress
