S3DO,O(lD,ODO JULY |
Huge Dividend Disbursement
Due-AIso $500, ,00O,0 900
in Bond Interest.
BY FRANK III. MCCONNELL,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK. June 27.-Although
many dividends have been reduced, and
some passed entirely, approximately
$500 .0OO, 900 will be paid out in divi-
dends by American corporations on
July l.
The outflow will lend substantial
addition to the investment public's sup
ply of money and by far the greater part
OF it is expected to find its way prompt
" back into circulation.
In addition to dividend payments,
American corporations will distribute
$500, ,00O,00 in interest payments to
bondholders
July l is the most important Summer
settlement day of the year. Total pay
ments by corporations on that date are
equaled only by their January dis
bursements.
A leading statistical organization,
which lists virtually every corporation
in which there is a public investment,
estimates that approximately one out
OF nine are still paying dividends. Nearly
5000 corporations are included in this
study and approximately $50 of them
are continuing dividend payments.
With money rates now at abnormally
low levels. rejecting little turnover in
the money market. the banks will well
come the chance to churn things uO a
little and get an added amount It
back into public circulation.
