If the corporation issues its own
stock and makes its own transfers,
the services of competent regis
trar are highly desirable as a check
against over-issuance of stock, and
many corporations avail them
selves Of this safeguard.
1t sometimes happens that a cor
poration at distance from New
York has a good proportion of its
stock held locally, the rest being
scattered. While the corporation
is not unmindful of the benefits of

advantage OF their services In the

de2Gs. IN these days when secGr!-
ties are 50 widely scattered
throughout this and foreign cuun-
tries, a central agency for the pay
ment of interest and dividends is
a matter OF practical necessity.
Oftentimes the corporation viii
find the preparation of lists Of
stockholders entitled to dividends,
the drawing of hundreds or thou
sands of checks, and their mailing
at interest or dividend time con-
siderable burden and inconven-
fence to it's clerical force. But to
the trust company, equipped with
the latest mechanical devices and
with a personnel trained in such
work, these are matters of daily
routine. The issuing corporation
has then but one check to prepare
that to the trust company for the
total amount-and is thus relieved
of a vast mass of detail work.
The paying agent likewise under
the direction of the corporation
prepares and mails notices of
meetings, proxies, and similar
forms, and distributes to stock
holders annual or other reports.
There is almost no limit to the
services that the trust department
~ a well-OrganiZed trust company
can render to a corporation. IL
Il corporation desires to increase
its capital and to offer its stock
holders "rights" to subscribe to the
rev stock, the trust department
ran take care of the subscriptions
and delivery of the rights" to the
stockholders. A corporation may
wish to offer its stock in exchange
for the stock of another company;
such an exchange can be put
through by the trust department.
In the case of voluntary liquida-
ton of a corporation, the trust de-
partment can perform the work
and distribute the securities and
cash.
When stockholders OF bondhold-
ers desire to pool their interests in
a committee under an agreement
relating to some phase of a read
justment or reorganization. or to
form q protective committee" in
the case of threatened insolvency,
OF to create a voting trust, the
trust company can relieve such
committee of the physical ham
ding of the securities.
In case a corporation 10 reorgan-
izing, the trust company may re-
ceive the old securities, issue to
the security holders its receipts,
and, at the proper time, may re-
deem them for the new securities.
1t may also act as agent and re.
ueve the corporations officers and
security holders of many details III
connection with the refinancing.
The services of a trust company
as depository and agent are now a
well-recognized necessity in any
reorganization plan.
Should it be desired to hold cash,
securities, letters patent, deeds,
formulas or other docu-
ments in escrow, the trust depart
ment handles The matter under
simple 'a,t2c Of instructions, or in
sorle instances under an agreement.

N m ANY a small but growing
WI business situated far
V from a money center
reaches a point in its
development where its managers
see an opportunity to expand it
into a larger business If they could
get the additional capital neces-
sary for such expansion. But there
are many difficulties in the way of
such new financing. The business
is usually partnership or close
corporation, that is, one whose
stock is held as a permanent in
yestment by small group, usual
ly made up largely of men actively
interested in the business. AS
rule the members Of this group
have no more money to invest.
They are, moreover, Jealous Of
their control of the business and
hesitate to jeopardize it by taking
in as partners other large local in
vestors, even though such local
money were available.
The solution is an appeal to the
general public for the needed
funds.
But how shall q comparatively
unknown concern interest distant
investors? How shall the interest
of these widely scattered partners
be conserved? How will the man

A quarter pound of limestone phos-

as soap and hot water cleanses, purifies

hot water and limestone phosphate act

consider that internal sanitation is vast
