EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Income.

The matter of safety of principal
having ben examined. the next point
of interest to the prospective investor
in any security is the rate of return,
but he vii not have gone into this
phase of the subject far before he dis
covers that two are interdependent.
The investment whatever it's char
acter which gives the lowest return
| is almost always one that gives the
greatest assurance of safety and vice
versa. The rule is sometimes stated
and it generally holds good that the
larger the yield the greater the risk.
There are exceptions, but they are
found only when such technical mat
ters enter in as exemption of income
from taxation or when a security is
not generally known in the larger
markets or for some other special
reason. They do not vitiate the rule.
which is pretty reliable guide.
The safest investment in all the
world, the one which is surest to pay
the principal when sue and the in
terest regularly meanwhile. in a
United States Government bond on
which the yield is correspondence
small. Just as fast as YOU get away
from this standard of safety the in
come goes up and so does the risk.
that safety is only relative. never
absolute There is always risk in in
vestment It differs only in degree.
There is no such thing as absolute
safety.
AS has been just said a United
States Government bond comes as
near to it as anything else. Prob
ably the Germans would have said the
same thing about their own govern
ment obligations in 1918, and vet the
postwar collapse of tho mark wiped
out tho German internal debt and i'm
noveriShed German bond holders.
This is no argument against huving
Government bonds or against taking
securities which give n much higher
Weld. II Is onlys Il warning against
the point of view embodied in tho
statement so often made h" intend
ing investors that thew wish to buy
this or that securitv. but must have
a higher return and absolute safety"
Another common mistake is to as.
sumo that there is any fixed rate
above which an investment is unsafe
and below which ii is safe. T'he fact
is that the standard as expressed In
income is fluctuatinc one. Liberty
bonds ill.,, strate this point also As
this is written none Of them can be
bought to give the investor as much
aS per cent. but at one time back
in 1920 there were United States OBJ
legations available to net the purcha s.
er between and per cent. The
principal was equally safe then and
now. hut other conditions had so
cha nced in five years that there was
difference of from to per cent in
the return.

The News A Great Educator In The
Wise Handling OF Money

How ca ma man or woman, with
little or no experience in investing,
learn to handle his savings wisely,
for the bettering of his own and his
family's condition? Where can he go
to get readily understandable, prac-
tical information without loss of
time or interference with other ac-
tivities?
There's a quick, practical answer
to these questions, right under the
nose of every person who reads a re-
spOnsible newspaper with capably-
edited financial pages and business
news. The person of adult intelli-
gence who will give only 20 minutes
a day to reading such financial news
will in a remarkably short time be
able to avoid most of the tricks of
takers and bucket shops and to dis
criminate between the honest and
the twilight zone in investments.
What should the reader look for?
The daily market reports?
No. The markets are so big, price
fluctuations mean little to anyone
who has only small knowledge of
what is behind them. Look for the
news items, that tell of the success
full and the unsuccessful business
operations, Of the businesses that
are making money, of lines of bus
mess that are dragging bottom, OF
dividends declared, of dividends pass
ed, of bonds called for payment be-
fore they are due and of the issues
of new bonds and stocks by recog.
nized businesses and dependable gov
ernments.
What can the reader get from all
this? Isn't it too technical?
First, he can get rid of the mon
ey-losin gidea that it is practical to
get something for nothing. The huge
dream-like profits many people i'm.
agine are the rare exceptions. AL
most every enterprise has to plow
right back into its business a large
part of it's profits if it is to continue
successful. AS a rule, the depend
able business can pay only a fair
reasonable return. The reader will
learn from news of this kind what
lines of business seem more depend
able as investments and which lndi.
vidual businesses more desirable. He
will learn that bond houses and Sc
curity dealers are known by the com
pany they keep and that the frs
essential in safe investing is to take
time to learn the character and rep
utation of the security. dealer.
AS to technical terms, there's vir
tually nothing in the financial pages
that adult intelligence cannot easily
comprehend. There's no mystery il
safe investing. It's wholly a matter
of finding enterprises that are hon
estly and capably managed. Fol
many, reading financial news will a
first be bit of a chore; they are
unaccustomed to it. But gradually
with only 20 minutes a day, it will
become intensely interesting, foi
there is no livelier romance thai
that of business. There's no mort
preventive from being a sucker thai
time so spent. There's no handle
gate to the road to financial indie
pendence, for the inexperienced in
vestor.
