I'VE have respectfully submitted to
the Senate" said the statement. "con-
sideration of the original Rankin bill,

American Can

AS one of the members of the
recognized pivotal group of Is
sues to which the market looks
for a sign of the general trend of
activity, American Can will un-
deubtedly be taken in hand to
maintain constructive sentiment
should the general list show any
signs of wavering. Earnings
have shown consistent expansion
with 1929 results of more than
So per common share coming
within expectation of last years
optimistic forecasts. Well in
formed quarters still hold to the
opinion that a spht-up of the
common stock will take place be-
fore many months have passed.
Paramount
Despite the recent unsettlement
in the amusement group, the
clearing up of the Fox situation
is a decidedly bullish factor for
the market future of this list.
Paramount is considered to have
the best banking sponsorship OF
any organization in this field,
and net earnings of $685. a share
in 1929 contrast favorably with
The Washington times., 1930-04-09

the results in the previou year,
when $4.02 per common share
was reported. The recent divi-
dend increase to 81 per share is
indicative of the liberal policy of
the management to stockholders.
General Foods
This issue has more than once
appeared ready to come out Of
its lethargic state and do some
thing on the forward side Of the
market, but it has hesitated each
time.
Interests who have taken a
hand in it's market future point
out that fewer mergers will be
undertaken in the near future
and efforts will be devoted to
consolidating present acquisitions,
so that strong likelihood exists
that firSt-quarter earnings will be
considerably in excess OF last
year. At present prices it offers
a yield of 6 per cent.
United States Steel
An important factor which is
expected to have a strong in
fluence in shaping the immediate
course of the market is the steel
tonnage report for March, which
will be available tomorrow.
