can has dropped 10 points siEee I, was
Issued. Would ii be best 70 hold !, unul

some other IN rs placs1-F. G. W.
Answer-Your inquiry emphasizes a
point which We have tried TO stress on
numerous occasions. You want %
know whether the Frameriean Indus
trial Tks should be sold, In view OF
the fact that they have declined about
ten points. We have stated repeatedly
that In our opinion French external
securities are suitable only for per-
sons who will make up their minds 10
ignore periodical reactions due 20 un-
favorable political or economic deyel-
opments in Europe. Now the ques-
tlon Is, What will you take as
substitute for this bondf Will you
sacrifice In addition 70 about ten
points Of principal or . per cent
In tho interest rate and thereby rem
der your investment worry-proof, or
will you take another bond subject 20
the same or similar inhuencesi IL you
pursue the latter course. what will be
your action II that substitute bond
should decline for some reasonI Wiil
YOU again run 70 cover and take still
another substitute, or VIII you hnaiiy
get down 20 the level OF stable eonds'
Our advice Is either 70 hold the FRA
merlcsn bond or make a bold move
toward hrst grade bonds. The Ohio
Public Service bond was quoted reeent-
iy AZ i0i bid and io3 asked. Your for
cign government bonds are good in

The Eastman Kodak Company is

United States. It was incorporated
In its present form In 1901, aequid-
ing ali the capital stock OF a COM
pany Of the same name, and the
stock Of the Aristo Company. The
properties OF the parent company
and its subsidiaries we're carried in
the last balance sheet at s34,7t6,-

asets included si2,263 900 cash and
9i6,059, 200 Of United States Gov
ernmen. bonds. Current assets ex-
ceeded current liabilities by $685.
$4,000. and htere was a surplus OF
t5s,i22,0oo, the result Of a policy
Of blowing a great percentage Of
earnings into property while pay
ing large dividends. At the begin
ming Of 1922 the net assets applic-
able 20 the common stock amounted
20 $50. .50s,000, or sll2.54 a share Of
500 par value. Last spring ten
shares Of new common stock Of no
par value we're exchanged for each
WV SMART AHtTt tFt now efVoVf-
900 shares Of common stock out
standing. They are preceded By
f6,i65,700 Of 8 per cent cumulative
preferred on which dividends have
been paid regularly since 1902. Tho
new common stock has been placed
on a IS regular dividend basis,
equivalent 70 80 per cent on the old
stock OF 500 par value. In addi-
tion the directors have declared an
extra dividend OF 30 cents n share,
payable December 80. The old stock
carried a regular rate OF 10 per
cent per annrm, but large extras
ranging from 2 per cent in 1905 20
80 per cent In 1915 we're paid.
Earnings for the ten-year period
