big board and none around its
selling price that I would rather
buy and lock up in the strong
box than International Nickel.
The company has tremendous
possibilities in its virtual monopoly
on the world nickel supply and
also has huge copper reserves.
People in the know tell me
that Nickel should be able to
earn about So on the common in
any normal year. and the longer
term outlook suggests increased
profits in time. The manage
ment is very able.
Nickel has been strong the last
three days when the other cop
pers were under heavy pressure
and two of them, Anaconda and
Kennecott were making new lows.
Action of the coppers suggests
a heavy short interest. News from
the industry unfavorable, with
producers and consumers dead
locked between 10A and IL cents
for the red metal. Buying has
been small.
Curtailed industrial production
this month suggests possibility of
further increase in stocks of cop
per on hand at the end of the
month. There may be more divi-
dend cuts, with Kennecott be-
lieved to be the next one. Yet the
blackneSs of the picture suggests
that the turn may be nearer than
a great many believe.
Here and There
There are rumors of a pool in
National Cash Register to drive
in the shorts. 80. Briggs has been
acting well, but earnings for the
current quarter aren't expected to
be much. American Can is
likely to have a sharp ride. hear
it has a large short interest. .....
The move in Bullard was just a
quick play, I am told. The COM
pany's earnings will have to show
comeback before higher prices
are warranted. Operations for
the first half resulted in a loss.
I understand insiders have been
replacing stock they sold above

The Tobaccos

Tobacco stocks were strong

that the tobacco industry gets all
the laurels for q depression year.
Output is now we'll ahead Of
1929 and earnings of the leading
companies are setting new high
marks.
American Tobacco is my mar
ket choice, and the old stocks
could easily go a whole lot higher
without being out of line with
current earnings rate. The new
could do proportionally well.

been stronger. The carbon black
