Answer The New York Central de-

40 not feel that you have too many Of
them. The bonds are callable on any
interest date at 10. The logic of
holding both United States Rubber
preferred and the 71a per cent bonds
does not appeal to US. If the pre-
ferred stock is sound enough, the
question naturally arises: Why be
content with the lower yield of the tx

position would be strengthened by dis
posing of the preferred stock and tax

and that in the meantime hsNe no market
status2 Also what Ia the possibility in
view Of the security behind this issue,
principal TO holders OF thess bonds ?-R p
Answer Aside from The National
Conduit bond, the only issues on your
list open to criticism are the Seaboard
Air Line As and the Industrial Alcohol
common stock. The situation in Seaboard
Air Line is such that we are extremely
doubtful whether a person who wants
sound investments should hold this
bond. Your capacity for CARRYING
along an improbable security will die
tate the course to be pursued with re-
spect to the Industrial Alcohol stock.
The situation in this company has
shown some Improvement. Pending
the final settlement of the National
Conduit & Cable Company's difficult
ties, the per cent bonds are not with
out definite market status, Houses
furnishing market in this issue quote
it at "A bid, 46 asked. We understand
that the bondholders' protective COM
mittee is working out a plan for re-
financing and readjustment of the
company. Although we do not know
what form the final plan will take, it
is fair to assume that the company
will have emerged from receivership
before the 6 per cent bonds mature.

Central States electric

Question-Some time ago / purchased
dfty shares Central States Electric com
aon stock and l would greatly appreciate
any information you can give me with ref
erenee to this company and the outlook as
to its future, as l have not received a state-
N ent of their condition for some time. Do
you classify this stock as purely specula-
tive ?--J f, w.
Answer-Central States Electric
common stock is highly speculative.
This company held controlling inter
est in the Cleveland Electric Illumi-
mating Company and the earnings of
the latter made the Central States in
come position seem highly favorable
from the standpoint of stockholders.
But this interest was disposed of, ac-
eordlng to an announcement made last
March. The company received for its
stock $3,000,000 of North American
Company 6 per cent preferred stock
and cash sufficient to retire a S.
963,500 issue of notes due June / 1922.
and leave a substantial balance for
the purchase of new securities The
Central States Company was thus re-
duced to the position of minority
stockholder in a large corporation. It
has not been stated just what the
total cash payment was and we are
unable to determine, therefore, what
is the comnany's ability to acquire
control of another utility property.
AS matters now stand the Central
States company is receiving $1S0,00o
annually in dividends on it's North
American preferred, and it needs S318,-
600 to pay years dividends on its own
preferred stock. The next step the
Central States company must take is
to acquire new utility property with
the cash it holds.

aiso thank you to say whether Interna- :
tional Mercantile Marine 6s OF 1e4f and
south Porto Rico Sugar rs of 1911 are

Answer Virginia Carolina Chemical
IS, 1947, are redeemable as whole at
any time or in part on any interest
date at 1o7h and interest on or before
June l, 1882. The issue contains no
warrant such as the TVS of 1887. There
IS no difference in series A and series
= or the International Paper, 5s. 1947,
international Mercantile Marine 6s.
l94l, are fairly good investment for a
business man, and rank above the
South Porto Rico Sugar rs, in our
opinion.
