Buying for Profit
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

1t is not enough that stockholders re-
ceive accurate and detailed information
with regard to the financial operations
of the corporation in which they are
part owners. This information should
be published with reasonable prompt
ness. The point was made with en-
phasis in a recent address by Richard
Whitney, president of the New York
Stock Exchange He said Annual re-
ports have sometimes been delayed for
months. Semi-annual and quarterly re-
ports of income have often been pub
lished so late as TO be of no practical
value"
The offenders in this particular are
not all small or relatively unknown or
CARNATIONS. Some of the largest COM
panies make report but once a year,
and often that report does not come out
for months after the close of the fiscal
period Sometimes the excuse is made
that the business of the concern Is on
a seasonal basis and that interim state
mentS would be misleading, and some
times no excuse at all is given. One
large corporation asserts that it's inter-
csts are so worldwide in extent that 1t
takes them months to collect the sta
tistics.
All this Is no help TO the shareholder
who is kept in the dark. The remedy,
however, is in his own hands. He
should protest to the management, and,
failing of gaining hearing, use his
funds TO buy an equity elsewhere.
One reason for the popularity of
railroad and utility stocks is the fact
that monthly statements of earnings
are available. Those Of the railroads
are made up according to the regula-
tons of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, and those of the utilities follow
well defined schedule. All of them
give out their income accounts without
undue delay. Those of the railroads
are published within three or four
weeks Of the end of the month they
cover. It would probably not be prac-
teal for most industrial companies to
be as precise in this particular as the
railroads or the utilities, but they could
do much more than they have done.

ROMEO DUBOIS TO
 MEET GEORGE DAY

New Haven. January 29 - Bit by bit. Matchmaker Al Caroly of the Arena A. C., is putting together one of the most attractive fighting cards ever assembled for New Haven fans. On top of having Jack Dempsey on hand as the referee for the ten round star bout between Louis (I<id) kaplan and Jack Portney. in which Kaplan will be striving to redeem himself for the defeat handed him by Portney at Baltimore last year. the diminutive matchmaker of the Arenas trained heard broke loose last night with one of the greatest of all New Haven naturals for the semi-final spot on Tuesdays card.
 This rout an eight-rounder at 135 pounds, will bring Romeo Dubois. one of the most promising young sters ever to show in New Haven ring, into action with none other than Tornado George Day, once the greatest lightweight in the state. Dubois, who has been coming along very nicely of recent months, will receive the most severe test of his entire career to date, despite the fact that Day is admittedly sliding down the other side after a great career as tough lightweight
