WASHINGTON. d. C. Dec. 2s.-As
taxation Is not affected adversely. the
treasury department views with
equanimity the increasing number Of
stock dividends and attributes the
present tendency OF corporations in

ton than to any sound economic rca-
son This stock dividend matter Is
in the nature of a chain ms corpora.

other follows suit declared a hirh
authority in the treasury department
The same authority explained that,
contrary to the opinion in many quar-.
iers. the government loses no evenu
because the number OF shares has
bee increased. a stock dividend does
not increase the assets of a corpora
,ion and has not effect upon It's sur
illus. It was pointed out, because sur

Some corporations may increase the .

future earnings will Justify hlFh clsn

will continue NJ tho old figures. but
this does not work out in practice
this treasury spokesman ppriscd out.
The argument that tho declaration of
stock dividends thereby automatically
ei'riches stock holders was termed
entirely faIlacious" by this authority.
