i'm RO0SEVELT'S
INCOME PUZZLES
Reporter Gathers Data, but
Finds Figure Is Not
UItra-Fancy.
By PRESTON GROVER.

In connection with the current dis
cussion Of Jimmy Roosevelts wealth
and influence. some figures this cor--
respondent gathered might be inter-
esting.
Our figures. near enough first hand
to be satisfactory, were rounded up
before the recent publication Of esti-
mates Of Jimmy's insurance income.
They do not indicate anything ultra
fancy.
Our information is that the young
Roosevelt puts the capitalized value"
of his insurance business at $3.50 600
to 100000. That is a somewhat
elastic factor, but at the time we
obtained the figures we we're told
that his earnings from insurance
were considerably less than the "capi-
talized value" This latter represented
the amount at which he valued his
business as going concern.
In arriving at the capitalized value
Of q company this procedure is fol-
lowed: A company may estimate that
it is making . 10 per cent profit.
AACA Ato S0PltdAlACu S6AuC UCCOIlCC
10 times its earnings. Thus. If the
company's earnings are $4,000 its
capitalized value" is 100000.
Reversing the process, a company
with a capitalized value" of 5000, 900
might be found to have earnings of
$4,000, or anything else from nearly
nothing to nearly 100 times the cap
italized value.
But whether Jimmy's insurance
business was valued for us on the
basis Of 10 per cent earnings or on
some other figure cannot be said.
Bits Of further information coming
| to US indicate he has q $4,000 equity
in the $37, 900 home he recently pur-
chased at birmingham. Mass; has
$4,000 in securities and q $4,000
trust fund set up for him by his father.
In addition, his wife. Betsy, daughter
of DR.. Harvey Gushing, q prominent
Boston brain specialist, was described
to us as having about $4,000 Of her
own.
Earnings on the securities and the
trust, calculated at per cent, would
be $2,250. Besides this income, Jimmy
Of course gets $4,000 as secretary
to the President.

Christmas Street
Lights Cost 5000;
Money Is Needed

Sam Afford, chairman of the COM
mittee that is trying to raise funds
TO defray the cost of the Christmas
lighting system on Garnett street,
said today there was mistaken idea
rs to the cost of the enterprise, and
he outlined the detailed items that
went into the expense budget. -
The contract for installing the lights
and then taking them down and stor-
ing them after the holidays was let
at 1929. Cost of the current was es-
timated at $135, based on the expense
for other seasons. Purchase of the
laurel to be added with the lights was
given as $270. A miscellaneous item of
$50 was included for replacement of
broken bulbs and worn rope. Hiring
of Santa Claus to mill about thro-
ugh the crowds for ten days imme-
diately preceding Christmas was
placed at $25. Another item of stor-
age through the year was given as
$50, with insurance of the equipment
at $40. All of this, he said, totals ap-
nroximately $500. The money is need
ed, and merchants were asked to con-
tribute in sufficient amount to permit
the carrying out of the project as
planned. zak
