National Lead.

The question OF a possible increase in
capitalization with a stock dividend dec
laration by the National Lead Company
is being studied. but its directors as yet
have seen no reason for such course, ac-
cording to Il. ]. Cornish. president. Il
have noticed statements in the press that
it was advantageous to declare surplus
in stock dividends as a means OF reduc'
ing taxes. I have no reliable informa-
ton as to how the National Lead Com
pany or its stockholders would be bene-
fitted by such action. OF course the
demagogue who complains when we pay
6 per cent. might not complain IL we
were paying only 3 per cent, although
the total dividend paid would be the
Same. Our articles of Incorporation
would have to be amended II we were to
declare all our surplus. amounting to
$20.8s0,S7l, a a stock dividend"

The current earnings and business out
look of Stewart Warner Speedometer are
such as to raise the question of an in
crease Of its dividend to 81 share at
this months directors meeting. accord
ing to those usually well informed about
the compeny's affairs. Its plants are
working at capacity, and there has been
no accumulation OF surplus products.
The statement for the third quarter is
expected to show net profits Of about
$500, 900 after taxes. This would bring
the net earnings for the first nine
months of the year up to approximately
s3,621,686, contrasted with an annual
dividend requirement Of $1.s99,2oo at the
rate Of $4 yearly.

r. T.. Loomls, president OF tho Lchigh
Valley Railroad Company. commented
on the report that the directors OF Le-
high at their December meeting would
vote to place the dividend ratio at W
instead Of the $3.50 now paid. Tho opln-
ion In brokerage circles is that the buy
ing of Lehigh Valley stock is based on
the belief that the increase Will be voted
before the end of the year. The road
was one of those which suffered during
the suspension of anthracite coal min
ing. but current figures indicate q heavy
movement Of hard coal.

Tho earnings of the Iron Products
Corporation are said TO be running at
about $14 per share net. Business OF the
company has been aided materially by
the boom in the building trade and the
resumption OF public Improvement work
by various cities, counties and States.
One feature of the policy Of Iron Prod
ucts which IS regarded as placing 1t in
an advantageous position is an agree
ment that the price governing all new
orders taken shall be at the current mar
lset quotation on the date OF delivery.

Constant strength was noted In tho
railroad stocks in yesterdays session.
New high prices for the present move
ment were recorded for Reading,
Atchison, New York Central and
Chesapeake and Ohio. Lehigh VAL
ley also was bid up, while New Haven
showed net gain of more than n point
at the close of the MARKET. AS is natural
when tho rails are prominent, rumors
were circulated concerning several roads
and their probable policy for the next
few months. That the September net
earnings for the Glass / roads will
show material Improvement over Au-
gust is regarded in Wall Street as a
foregonc conclusion. 1t also is felt that
September will compare favorably with
the same month of last year.
The New York herald., 1922-10-17

The forthcoming report OF the car
service division of the American Rail-
way Association covering car loadings
for the first week IN October Is expected
to show a total slightly In excess OF
100000 cars. There are only two or
three weekly totals which surpassed the
million car level and these were in
October, 1920. Close followers OF the
general railroad situation are confident
that In view OF tie steady increase in
car loadings during September the total
for the first week of this month will
rank with the highest on record.

Coal Loading. increase.

Fridays report on coal loadings
showed increases over Thursday In both
anthracite and bituminous. In the case
OF anthracite the total for Friday was
6.42S cars. a gain of 1855 over the pre-
vious day. Bituminous loadings
amounted to 28.7T6, an increase Of 1.276.
The loading Of coal has had a varied
course during the past few weeks, but
the roads in the East which account
for a large amount of the loadings con-
tinue to report substantial tonnages
moving to tidewater.

Rail wage Advance Expected.

Little surprise was accorded yester-
days announcement from Chicago of a
cent an hour advance in the pay OF
maintenance of way workers. The ac-
ton of the United States Railroad La
Dor Board had been expected since the
announcement Of the Steel Corporations
decision to advance rates for unskilled
labor. The expenditure which will have
to be borne by the carriers as result
Of the boards decision is estimated at
$22,125,000 figured on an annual basis.
The increase affects about half mill
ion workers. The range Of pay under
the decision will besfrom 23 to " cents

ports that the road was about to seek
permission to issue per cent. preferred

pointed out, was due to misinterpretation
of a bulletin by the Interstate Commerce
