A BARGAIN?

Much discussion has been occasioned by the sale to a preferred list" of customers by Morgan and Company of stock of the A1eghany Corporation Was this stock actually bargain? The pre- ferred customers obtained the stock at $20 in Feb ruary, 1929 Approximately 100000 shares were thus distributed. Probably the majority to whom these shares were issued wish that Morgan's never had remembered them.
 The stock went to a high of S5650 in 1929-a price for which there was admittedly no sound basis Then the 1929 crash came. The stock sank to $17 Last year, however, it went to low of 3yh cents It around $225 share early this month. Some folk who still have the stock may feel that the House of Morgan unloaded something, even though there was no such intent on its part
