seen practically nothing OF our country.

Answer-We think that your selec-
ton of Cerro de Pasco SIS. Du Pont
712s and Diamond Match 7hs is good
one, but for your purposes we would
not select the Sinclair TVS. They are
due in 1925, which makes them short
term investment, and while we think
they are good business mans invest
ment we do not recommend them for a
man who is not in very good health
and dependent on income to help him
out. We suggest Westinghouse Elec-
trio and Manufacturing 7 per cent
bond, due 1881, recently selling at
102%. If you feel, however, that you
must have higher yield than this, we
suggest Steel and Tube Company of
America per cent general mortgage,

~, yielding 1863 if held to maturity
and 761 current interest All of the
lnvestmc hts that you own are good
that is, the bonds as listed under No. I.
We differ with you in regard to the
New Haven. The New England rail
road situation is very complicated, and
it may take years to work out plan
for solvent and profitable New England
railroad operation. If a rcceivership
should be found necessary you might

for a considerable period of time, and
IN the long run you might find that the
loss OF interest, etc, would amount to
more than your loss were you to sell

Answcr-We advise you to hold the

but hold your Victory AXIS. We are
also inclined to advise you to hold the
American Smelling and Refining pre-
ferred, American Agricultural Chemi.
mon and Atchison, Topeka e. Santa Fe
common. We consider the American
Agricultural Company sound and think
that dividends will be resumed within
a few years. We do not think that the
callable feature of bonds is of as
great Importance as many investors
seem to think. Most of the high coupon
rate bonds that are callable are only
callablc at a considerable premium.
which would be a protection against
their being called unless money rates
should 60 fa~lowcr than anything that
can be foreseen now Your list of in
vestments is well diversified, and in
our opinion has high degree of safety.
