In the Stock Market
by Thomson & M ~ HIl;I, !.

I
tically all of the larger corporation
earnings for the first half year gen.
erally known, comparison with the
depression period of ten years ago
appears timely.
General Motors then, due to an
operating deficit. was actually forced
to pass the dividend. The Steel Cor
uoration failed to earn its SIS divi-
dend by a wide margin. Gilt edge
preferred stocks we're selling to yield
between and 10 per cent. Even
the government was forced to pay
per cent for money. Unemploy-
ment was far more acute than 1t is
today.
notwithstanding, attempts have
been made to compare conditions
today with those of a decade ago.
Today we have General Motors
showing earnings amply covering
dividend requirements. The Steel
Corporation will probably produce
earnings for the first six months
sufficient to cover dividends for the
entire year.
Ten years ago a great number OF
concerns were forced to resort to
additional financing at very high
cost. Today all of our major cor
porationS are so strong financially
that there is no thought of raising
additional capital because Of the re-
ceSsion in general business.
The depression of ten years ago
lasted SIS than a year. We do not
believe that the present one will
last much. if any. longer.
Comparisons are so startlingly in
favor of conditions as they are to-
day We can not help but feel that
the present offers the investor I'M
usual opportunities.
