NEW YORK, April l3.-First-
quarter earnings of Union Bag &
Paper Corp. will probably exceed
$4,000, it was estimated by Alex
ander Calder, president, at the an
nual meeting of stockholders in Jer-
sey City.
All directors were reelected for
one year. Sixty nine per cent of the
company's capital stock was voted
with no dissenting vote.
The year 1889 started out with a
much healthier market tone Mr.
Calder said, land we are today re
ceiving approximately 10 per cent
higher prices for our major products
Your company's shipments for the
first quarter were little below the
1888 average, but this is the natural
result of hesitaucy on the part of
the trade in buying at the higher
price levels, and is deliberate in
vestment toward the securing of
higher prices for the balance of the
year

But dealers in some Of the larger

The idea nowadays seems to be

natural progression. The romantic
theme that winds up with a wedding

pretty well explored, and story tell

gave the customers swing music that

insight into modern Paris, intimate
details of life under the Soviet gov
