market valuations of other i'm
portant utility organizations will
bear out the statement of its
sponsors that it is behind the
market. Earnings for 1929 were
close to $3.50 per share, which
places its current market price
at the most conservative ratios
of any of the active utility
shares.
Proctor & Gamble
The impressive carry through
which this stock exhibited yester-
day in reaching new high levels
for the year is indicative, accord
ing to chart students, that a sus-
tanned drive is in the offing. The
long pull outlook and the market
sponsorship of this company is
excellent, with j. P. Morgan in
tereStS known to have purchased
or optioned 25O,000 shares. The
annual dividend of 50 is amply
covered by earnings, with plant
expansion promising a continue
ton of the steady progress it
has shown previously.
