Answer-Although it is not within
inc province Of this column TO forecast
the movement OF stocks-direet advice
on the merits Of selling a stock or
holding it In expectation Of a recovery
being tsntsmount 20 such a forecast
the situation in the Wabash Railway Is
such that we feel justified in setting
down some pertinent facts which would
be useful 20 you In arriving at your
own decision. Up 10 and including
1915 the Wabash had a record for in
ability 20 meet It's interest charges.
There was a reorganization in 1915.
which cut the annual interest charges
in half. IN 1916 and 1917 the road en-
joyod a remarkable increase in earn
ings. with the result that the Class A
stock received Z per cent in dividends
IN 1917 and ? per cent in 1918. During
the period Of Federal control earnings
decreased. as they did on a majority Of
tae railroads, but the road was covered
By the Federal guaranty. All that is
history. The more significant Develop
ment from the standpoint Of person
desiring 20 measure the company's
ability to resume dividends on the
stock is the increase in earnings dur
ing the last year and a half For the
full calendar year 1921 earnings were
al the rate Of l97 per cent on the
Class A stock. The recovery during
1922 has been even more marked. In
the first four months Of this year net
operating income after taxes and un-
col'sted items was s2.254,0 900, as COM
pared with sl,457,00O in the CORE
spending period OF 1921. On the basis
Of the returns for those four months. il
is estimated that net earnings for the
full year 1922 will be sufficient 10 cover
TIA 5 per cent dividend on both classes
or preferred and leave a little for the
common stock besides, but whether the
directors will see ~ % declare divi-
dends u earned We cannot predict.

Answer-The fact that Durant
Motors stock sells on the curb market
considerably above the price at which
IL may be purchased direct from the
company on a partial payment plan
naturally tends TO stimulate sales de-
spite the fact that the purchasers
hands are tied by an agreement not to
offer thes stock for sale within a year
after its delivery when paid for sew
oral months hence. IL is conceivable
that the company is supporting the
stock on tho curb market a. around 3S.
We say il is possible; we have no
knowledge that this is being done. The
company is comparatively new and no
dividends have been paid on the stock.
For this reason u is entirely specula-
tive. Until earning power has been
established over a longer period the
stock will remain speculative. The dis
advantage in buying under an agree
ment not TO sell for a definite period is
overlooked by some, but IL seems clear
that the holder OF the stock would have
20 stand BY and watch II decline, II
unfavorable developments caused a re-.
action, under this plan. He would have
no chance Of getting out. so far as We
can sec. The new preferred stock Of
the New York Telephone Company is
TO be regarded as a good investment.

TODAY ANNIVERSARY OF
FIRST ATLANTIC STEAMER

ATLANTA, May 25.-The first
steamship to cross the Atlantic, the
City of Savannah, set out on her
first voyage 103 years ago today, and
fifty-five days later steamed back
into port making worlds record
for transatlantic trip. Savan-
nah's reputation as the port of the
first steamship to cross the Atlantic
commenced in 1919 when a charter
was granted a shipbuilding concern
to construct a ship equipped with
steam. The original charter is in
the office of DIR. L. L. Knight, state
historian. When the ship was com
pleted and made her first trial trips
successfully at the invitation of the
owners, President Monroe came 20
Savannah and made a trial trip
around the harbor and short dis
tance into the ocean.

B. A. Bradley, Of Leslie, RepoH
Result OF 79-Day Test
Feeding

Corn fed to a dozen hogs by B.
A. Bradley, of near Leslie, brought
him $1.90 per bushel on a test which
he conducted, he reported today, fol-
lowing the sale Of the hogs at the
farmers cooperative sale at Leslie
Wednesday. This is the best profit
on corn fed hogs reported from this
section, the next best being $1.25 for
corn fed to hogs reported re-
Gently by Gordon Heys, Of near
Americus.
On March 5 Mr.. Bradley started
feeding ~ hogs. All were small,
weighing total of $40 pounds and
grading No. 3. This grade on that
date was worth cents per pound or
$42. When sold 10 days later they
weighed $3.50 pounds, a net gain Of
1,415 pounds. The price obtained
was cents a pound, or $24s.05.
Feed cost was estimated at $3.50
and labor $40. These two amounts
added to the value of the hogs at the
start of the test, $42, made total Of
$127.20 to deduct from the gross re-
ceipts of $248.05, leaving a net profit
Of $120.85 on the transaction.

WHIPPING OF EX-SOLDEER
JUSTIFIED, SAYS BOARD

ATLANTA, May 25.-The pris-
on commission Wednesday issued a
statement justifying the warden Of
the state prison farm for whipping
Robert Lee benson, an ex-scrvice
man, who was sent there last week
to serve a sentence OF from two to
five years for stealing an automobile.
The indignation of j. Christie, a Ma
con convict, who was dismissed from
the state farm shortly after Denson's
arrival, was aroused, and he wrote o
letter to a Macon newspaper dcnounc-
ing the whipping a brutal and a
cruel outrage According to Christie,
Denson's is were caused by being
gassed while overseas. The state
ment justifying the warden made no
comment on the fact that benson was
subject to fits, but stated that he
cursed both the warden and the
guard very violently and was whipped
for that reason. His punishment was
very moderate, being given only five
lashes.

HARDWICK AFTER
SINECURES;; WILL
START MESSAGE
To Urge Rail Commission OF
Three And Abolition OF
Other State Jobs

ATLANTA, May Ex-Governor
Hardwck will begin work on his an
nual message to the legislature next
week. He is going to recommend the
reduction of the railroad commission
from five members to three. He will
urge the abolition of the state roster
commission and the doing away with
the office of compiler and keeper OF
state archives. The position of at
torney for the railroad commission
he wants abolished. as he does the
attorney for the state highway COM
mission. In fact, he has not APP
pointed a successor to G. II. Howard,
who resigned as attorney for the COM
mission. The governor will urge
rigid economy in all departments Of
the state government and also re-
duction in tax rates and change in
the tax system. The governor ex-
poets to deliver his message in person
to the members of the general assem-
bly, in joint session as he did last
year.
The efficiency expert. which Gov
ernor Hardwick employed some time
ago is at work this week in the de-
partment of agriculture and it is eX-
pected that he will have some very
interesting recommendations to make
when he completes his investigation.
It is believed that the bill provid-
ing for state auditor which was in
troduced at the last session of the
legislature will surely be passed this
year, in view of the defalcation on
part of a former employee in the eX-
ocutive department and of bond
broker handling the state school
funds.
