not 5000. The return on this invest
ment at current market prices is less
than you would get on gilt edge bonds,
ana we think you could improve your
income without lowering the. standard
OF your investment materially. In fur
therance of this plan we suggest that
you take some preferred stock of un-

United States Steel preferred and New

Boston Consolidated Gas preferred

for your other $1,000. While on this

Copper and Brass Inquiries
Decline; Arsenic Supply Short

Copper and Brass inquiries have
fallen off somewhat during the last
week, according to an official Of the
Anaconda Copper Company.
Enquiries in all lines, except wire,
decreased" the official said, during
the last week. Weather proof wire
sales continue very good, and it is al
most impossible to obtain stock deliv-
cries, which is one Of the principal re-
quirements of that line. Our mills are
st'll very. busy and will probably con-
tinue so for some time
Copper producers manufacturing ar
senic as by-product have been flood
ed with orders the last two weeks. The
demand is chiefly from insecticide man
ufacturers. There is a serious shortage
of arsenic on account Of the decreased
production Of copper. Some insecticide
manufacturers are reluctsnt to accept
spring orders because they have been
unable to obtain promise Of arsenic de-
liveries in late winter or early spring" !"

Better Clothing Buying

Retailers are buying mems clothing
for next spring earlier and in larger
lots than they did when spring. 1929,
lines were offered a year ago. The
early business has been larger than
many in the trade anticipated. Price
advances ranging from 81 to So a suit
apparently have not checked the en-
thusiasm of the retailers, although this
was point that worried manufacture
crs before the increases were put into
effect. While the price ranges Of some
manufacturers show lower base price
for spring than they did for fall, It is
generally understood that these lower
prices have been reached only at the
expense of quality.
Another encouraging feature In the
early business now being booked on
next springs clothing is The increased
demand fer. good quality garments.
Last year" said one manufactures,
I'VE found it extremely hard to sell our
better quality goods, whereas this year
they seem to be moving better than our
lower grades"

Necessity for Wider Profit
Margin Back of Rising Prices
Sees Checks to Long
Period of Prosperity

CLEVELAND, Oct. 17.--Despite
Immediate prospects for prosperity
two Fundamental factors stand in
the way Of long period OF good
times, according to the Cleveland
Trust Company, in its mid-month
business review.
"The Arst Of these" says the
bank, "is to be sound In the bad
situation in Europe, and the sec
ond is the serious disparity between
the prices of manufactured goods,
which are high and rising, and those
Of farm products, which are low and
falling.
"There is still a relative surplus
Of raw materials in the world and
shortage of manufactured goods.
This temporarily makes for indus
trial prosperity, but it is not
good basis for healthy and sus-
tained. prosperity"

once one of the most prosperous roadi
IN the country, 10 now in a poor earn
ing position. Its earnings are insuf.
ileient to meet fixed charges, including
interest on the funded debt. The ST
Paul carried through a hure propram
OF expansion few years ago at rreat
expense and as result the system /.
saddied with great overhead charge
The additional facilities furnished Nv
this system have not yet justified their
creation, but the system has huge DO
tential possibilities. These, however
are not likely to be realized on during
the life OF the bond issue you have
In mind. The other extreme. as pre-
Yiously stated, is the Union Pacific a
per cent bond. It typifies a class OF
bonds which ignore all factors Of q
temporary nature, reflecting only the
condition of the money market. When
business is booming money rates are
nigh and the price of everything that
money will buy is high. This Il the
reason why gilt-edge bonds, alth ough
there Is no question about their Sc
curity, sell low when money rates are
high. Union Pacific first IS are selling
currently about twenty points highe eY
than they were,in May, 1920, the month
which marked the cessation Of the de-
cline in bonds. They are not any
more secure now than they were two
and one-half years ago, but the pur-
chasing power OF the interest dollar
is much greater. The Missouri Pacific
general 4s deserve rating in between
the st. Paul 4s and Union Pacific 4s,
but much nearer the, latter than the
former. The present market position
of the Missouri Pacific bonds Is a re-
fection of the company's past, rather
than present or prospective operating
conditions. This system was reorgan-
ICED In 1917 after several years of un-
profitable operation. In 1921 it's funded

The bonds are reasonably sound.

Manufacturers Say They
Cannot Forego Profits
Now as They Have in
the Past Two Years

Price advances in manufactured com
rnodities are now being aesuated by
two separate and distinct motives.
First comes the advances In raw ma
terials, and, secondly. the desire Of
manufacturers In most all tines to
widen. their margin Of profit. The
second reason, according to member
Of Arm Of well known clothing manu-
facturers, is one Of the most potent
factors in the recent advances that
have been made.
There has been much selling with
OUT .profit in the last two years." he
SAID, and many manufacturers, our
selves included, are unable for flnan-
cial reasons to continue this policy
any longer. We thought that by keep
ing prices low and forsgoirg our
profits we could maintain our volume
OF business. The wisdom Of that policy
70 questionable, in my mind. However,
the point has been reached, not only
In clothing, but in about everything
else, where some profit must be made
by manufacturers. Accordingly thew are
making price advances which are put
ting commodity levels about where
they belong, based upon general con-
ditions."
Proof of this is in evidence in price
advances tnat nave been made In some
manufactured commodities, the raw
materials for which were contracted
for before the recent increases in raw
material values were put into effect.
Against the widespread price ad-
vances, however there are some out
standing exceptions, notably, one in the
shoe trade, where manufacturer Of
high grade shoes has recently reduced
prices in the face Of an advancing
leather market, for the express pur-
pose of increasing volume, and In a
few isolated instances In the cotton
goods trade where speciality fabrics
have been reduced by manufacturers
or converters to "freeze out" compe-
tition.

Want Goods Quickly

Of boom times are found In some as1ar-
ters Of the cotton goods trade. Buy
ers who have been relying upon made
up stocks in the market for their sup
plies no longer are able to pick up
goods, as they were some months ago,
and they chafe under the delayed de-
liveries chat are now In force. One
Of the largest manufacturers of cheap
clothing was in the market yesterday
trying to get quick delivery on per-
Gales. He recently placed large or
der, but his production has been so
increased to take care Of new busi-
ness that he has run out of goods in
his plant. He was forced to ask that
several cases Of goods be forwarded
by express, and additional charge will
be made against him fer this service.
