CUBA CANE SUGAR PREFERRED.

with all the bearish rumors afioat
about sugar companies, II Is natural
that reports that Cubaa cane sugar
directors would today defer the pre-
ferred dividened should gain credence.
Those who have studied Cuba cane
sugar, although they admit the COM
pany Is somewhat overcapitalized, see
no reason why the preferred payment
should not be continued.
At the close of the fiscal year, Sep
TENDER 80. 1920. the company was In
most favorable financial position,
with more than sufficient working
capital and earnings for the year
equal to over ST. on the common
shares after allowing for preferred
dividends
While earnings In the current year
have not been up to the high record
of 1920, they are stated to be very
satisfactory. On September 30 the
company had actual cash of over $780,
oO0, 900 as we'll as other liquid assets.
and while financial conditions in Cuba
have been stringent during the past
few months, II is very doubtful that
they have been such as to wipe out
any large volume of these assets.
The annual report also showed that
the company had no sugar on hand
and only about S6,73S,000 of other
materials and supplies. so that II

A WAR IN SUGAR

Talk 10 now heard of a trade war
between the American Sugar Refining
Company and the Federal Sugar Re
fining. The latter IN said TO be in a
position to undersell American Sugar
and is understood to be doing so quite
avgressively.
As a result. some smaller COM
panies have also been hurt.
Rumors that American Sugar Will
have to reduce its dividend have again
been revived. accompanied by reports
of new financing.
However, the people who declared
that the last dividend would be paid
despite the general expectation to
the contrary, continue to predict that
the per cen rate will be maintained.

LOANS ON LIBERTY BONDS.

NEW YORK. June 3.-The Federal
Reserve banks action in making loans
on Liberty bonds at market value in
stead of at par did not come as a sur
prise.
How the information leaked out no
one appears to know, but 1t is a fact
that several brokers have noticed
during the past month that wealthy
men have been shifting from Liberty
bonds to other securities offering a
higher yield.
Some of the shifting has no doubt
been due to the expectation that I'M
der new taxation plans now being
considered the tax-exempt feature
will be removed from some of these
securities.
In some quarters the Reserve Banks
action is believed to be in line with
the new taxation schedule.

CHANDLER DIVIDEND MEETING.

Some buying of Chandler Motors
has developed on the theory that the

This will put the stock on per

Those buying now figure that
Chandler as a 8 per cent stock would
yield 10 per cent at its current price.
And then they think 1t should do bet

WHITE OIL AND sIMMs.

A rumor has again started that the

They characterize the reports as

short of Simms Petroleum.
The rumor states that one share OF
white welld be given for one and a
half shares OF Simms.
When efforts to force break In
Simms proved fruitless, selling de-
veloped In White which caused a de-
cline OF three points. 1t was also
stated that White had been unable

This report Is also denied by those

different to any thing that will
futher these ends; it can be said
that a town that is not worthy
of the devotion of its citizens in
makeing it widely and generous

it il not worth anything to live
at all. If a town is worth any
thing it is worthy of our greatest
