"A New Kind sf Uptown Office

n T the corner of East Sixty-third Street
4 n and Madison Avenue--alrnost exactly at
New Yorks Social Center'--the Bank of
New York and Trust Company opened
branch Office on November 20, 1922.
An attractive Colonial house of red brick and
white marble, presenting none of the usual
features Of bank, except haii-hidden protec-
tive griiles, yet containing every convenience
for the transaction of financial business; with
an entrance hall carefully designed in the style
OF the Adam period; with tastefully furnished
rooms for men and for women opening from
the entrance hall; with safe deposit vaults OF
the latest type and handsomely designed
coupon rooms. conveniently located; such is
the Uptown Office which the Bank of New
York and Trust Company has provided for it's
uptown friends-old and new.
The Office is under the management OF
Ernest Fl. Cook, Vice President who has been
for many years identified with uptown bank

Assistant Manager and Owen II. Smith as
Assistant Secretary.

The estimated value Of the COM

transportation is $16s,000,000, or 102
per cent more than total capitalization.
Assuming funded debt to be theoreti-
cally retired at par. there would be left

coal strike this year. Had 1t not been
sor shls trouble with the added burden
Of the shopmen'B strike. 1t Is more
han likely that 1922 would have gone
lown as the most prosperous year In
he company's history to date, from
tho standpoint OF earnings.
Historical Factors
The Central Railroad of New jersey
was Incorporated In 1347, as 5uming it's
present title in 1840. In 1852 the road
was opened from izabethport to Phil
iipsburg, distance of sixty-three
miles, and in 1864 was extended to Jer-
,ey City. On various dates in subse
quent years additional mileage was alb
sorbed, so that to-day che company
owns and operates under lease some
80 miles of road extending from
Wilkes-Barre and Scranton to Jersel
City and also from Jersey City south
ward through New Jersey to Delaware
Bay, serving on the way many Of the
important summer resorts along the
Jersey coast, as well as the most I'M
portant commercial and manufactur~
ing centers of the state.
In Jer ey City the company owns
Jne of the most extensive and va uab
water front properties in the vicinity
of New York, comprising about 1000
acres In area.
Dividend Record
Jersey Central stock received it's In
itial dividend in 1856 at the annual
rate Of per cent. During the first
twenty-five years of Its operation as
a competed line the company was
almost uniformly prosperous, and dur
ing that period paid dividends aggre-
eating 218 per cent or an average Of
nearly 10 per cent yearly. During ths
second period, covering the twelve
years from 1877 to 1888, inclusive, the
company was almost continually in
financial difficulties, with the result
that the stockholders received scarcely
any returns. Then comes the third
period, covering the thirteen years
from 1889 to 1901, inclusive, In which
the stockh olders received an average
Of about 5 per cent each year. The
fourth period, beginning with 1902 and
continuing through to the present time,
has again been one Of prosperity. The
regular annual rate during these
twenty -one years has been per cent.
and during the past thirteen years the
company has paid per cent additional
each year out of income from in
vestments.
Margin Of Safety OF Earnings
The margins of safety above interest
(including rentals for leased lines)
and dividend payments as shown in
the table below are based on the per-
centage that income available for these
payne nts could decline and still leave
ba ance sufficiently large to cover
them In full
