SHORE ESTATE is SOLD
Henry G. Duesenbury Buys Old
GrasOn Home Near CentrevilIe


The Wye River Farm, once the
home of Governor William Grason,
Queen Anne's county's only citizen
who rose to the governorship and
including a fine type of colonial
frame dwelling, has been sold by
the Bay and River Estates Com
pany, of Centreville, to Henry
Genet Duesenbury, of Essex Falls,
N. j.. and New York City, an Off
cial of the Richard Hudnut Co.,
perfumers. The tract comprises an
area of more than 200 acres and is
situated on the upper part of the
back Wye River. Access is via the
Benefits Point Road. Entrance
by water is through Eastern Bay,
and a cove provides excellent har-
Dor for a yacht. The new owner,
it is understood, plans extensive
improvements to the historic house
and work will begin around the
first of the year with Harry c. On
ley, of Queenstown, in charge.
Mrs. Aubrey F. Romine, of Queens
town, who was formerly associated
with the w. & ]. Sloane Company,
of New York, will direct interior
decorations. The Duesenburys, ac-
cording to reports, are keenly in
terested in horses and plan to
bring number of blooded animals
to the estate. So far as could be
lyearned they expect to spend the
major portion of their time on the
farm. Mr.. Duesenbury has owned
a small place in Talbot county for
several years and is well acquaint-
ed with the Eastern Shore.

PRESCRIBE YOURSELF

At the low point in a busi-
ness depression, a man whose
personal affairs were in bad
order, wrote: 'The big busi-
ness dealers have made a
horrible mess Of things" 1t
did not occur to the man to
accuse himself and exclaim:
'I have made a horrible mess
of things" He had had six
years of uninterrupted pros
perity in which to put his
house in order. He might
have utilized the cream from
those fat years. He could
have paid off the mortgage on
his house, retired his business
obligations and accumulated a
surplus to tide him over hard
times. If he had one these
things, and if several million
others had ben as frugal, the
crisis that later distressed
everyone might not have oc-
CURED. Commenting on this
a California Newspaper says:
"Too many of us are dis
posed to blame ''the system"
when we are in difficulties.
The system under which we
operate is based on freedom
of individual enterprise. Each
of us is allowed a loose rein in
the management of his af-
fairs. We may save money
or spend it. We may work or
loaf. We may insure our lives
or take a chance on leaving
our families destitute. The
government and public opin-
ion exercise only moderate
control.
when everyone is happy
and well-fed, we hear hurrahs
and hosannas for the genius
of our business leaders. Some
of these leaders come to be-
lieve that they are really Ma
poleons of finance and indus
try. They become racular.
The wise man, however, dis
counts such nonsense because
he realizes that all men are
human and that excessive am
bition leads to Waterloo.
"1nstead of relying on the
wisdom of others, he puts his
faith in his own common
sense. If his earnings double
and triple in good times, he
takes the surplus and puts it
where he knows it is safe.
While others are borrowing
money at the peak of prosper
ity, he is rapidly getting him.
self out of debt.
How many have the cour-
age and foresight and indie
pendent judgment to follow
this obvious procedure? His
tory reveals that such COM
mon sense is rare. Too MANY
men pay in hard times the

the book to his bosom, and raising

individual in a befrOgged Surtout

legs wide apart and stared at him
from a handsome brCnzed face, with
a pair of round, blue eyes; he held

STEEL MERCER
HELD AS SOUND
Republic Sees Link With
Corrigan- Mckinney as
Favorable.

The proposed consolidation of the
Corrigan-McKinney steel Company
with the Republic steel Corporation
and the contemplated readjustment
in the latter's capital structure and
other provisions now before stock
holders will decrease Republics out
standing securities senior to the
common, on a per ingot ton basis,
the Republic Steel Corporation dis
closed today.
Although funded debt will be in
creased, it was pointed out, the ratio
of debt to ingot capacity will COM
pare favorable with the ratios of
other leading steel companies.
Upon ratification of the plan by
stockholders, assuming that all of
the present outstanding preferred
stock is deposited under the COM
pany's plan, Republic will have out
standing bonded debt and prior
preference stock, senior to the COM
mon, totalling only $2052 per ton of
ingot capacity, based upon capacity
of 100000 tons for the consolidated
company.
These figures are based upon the
proforma balance sheet of the con-
solidated company as prepared by
Ernest & Ernst. This compares with
a total of $22.39 per ingot ton for
Republic Steel alone, as of June 80,
last.
Inasmuch as adoption of the
plan will also result in approx
mately so per cent reduction in the
outstanding preference stock, the
statement concludes, annual divi-
dend requirements therefore are re-
duced to approximately 100000
annually.
