Answer-Your stocks are inferior
and unsuitable both ns 10 security and
marketability and although they rep
resent only = small proportion OF your
invested capital We believe your posi-
tion would be more secure after dis
posing OF them In their place you
might take some good preferred stocks
such as New York Telephone Ga per
cert preferred, National Lead per
cen. preferred md Endicott johnson Z
per cent preferred The only bonds
that we consider unsuitable for one
In your position are the Czeeho-Slovak
ss, Sugar Estates rs and Uruguay SIS.
We suggest as substitutes for these:
American Sugar Cs. 1897, yielding
about so per cent; Kingdom OF Sweden
6s, 1889. yielding about 81 per cent,
and Denmark 6s, 1912, Yielding about
6l per cent.
