BY Roger W. Babson

New York City, Oct. with all
this talk about initiation there are
yet too many investors who do not
know what 10 do. A recent trip 10
Wall Street conyilces me that in
vestors are not fearful OF losing the
war. but are afraid OF losing the
peace. In short. they are worrying
about what will hapepn to their
money after the war but are doing
nothing about II. This explains
why stockholders are starving and
banks are bullying with money.
Investors Have Responsibilities
People who today are free from
debt and yet hide their money in
the bank are like the proverbial
ostrich which hides his head in the
sand. Both are trying to meet i'm.
pending changes by inaction and
refusing even to think. Readers
should consider their children and
grandchildren. The possession OF
money is a trust and this trust
cannot be avoided by letting the
purchasing power OF ones money
melt away by lying idle in the
banks.
This does not mean that your
bank will be unable to pay you
after the war. Banks are stronger
today than ever before. Every dol
lar you have in the bank will be
paid back to you when you need
1t. But the purchasing power OF
these dollars is melting" away
every month The dollars which
you have in the bank now will not
buy, after the war, what they will
buy today.
In What to Invest
Then what shall do with my
money!" you ask. The usual
answer to this question is to invest:
first, in good home with enough
land for vegetable garden; sec
ond, in other properly located reve-
nue-producing real estate; and
third, in good stocks. When asked
what good" means. reply stocks
of companies without debts and
which hold large reserves OF raw
materials and natural reserves
such as oil, timber, metal, ore, ma
tural gas, coal, chemicals, etc"
My favorite OF all natural resources
is an honestly acquired good water
power.
Even such good companies have
one worry, namely taxes. They
'are subject not only to income
taxes, excess profits taxes, and all
the other kinds OF taxes to which
every corporation is subject, but
they will have big real estate taxes
to pay in addition. These real
estate taxes will go up as the
value OF the dollar goes down.
Chain Stores Worth Considering
My own policy is a halfway com.
promise. do not leave much mon.
ey in the bank, but keep It rather
closely invested. On the other
hand. do not now try to beat the |
Initiation. Race by buying steels,
oils or even the popular chemicals. |
To me. the chain stores-especially |
the good grocery chains-look best. |
They buy at fixed, or market
prices and quickly sell at fixed, or |
market, prices whatever those
prices may be. People must eat |
and they pay these stores cash.
These stores, moreover, do bust |
ness at such a very small per unit
profit. no one can complain. They
surely are the friend of both the
poor and the well-to-do.
Many. OF my friends are roofing
for the railroads as investments

Lynn Says:

Good soups deserve attractive
accomplishments. Here are some
popular ideas:
Thin slices of lemon, chopped
parsley, thin slices of avocado,
slightly sailed whipped cream,
toasted almonds.
In the bread line you can really
do lot of tricks, such as cutting
the bread into fancy shapes with
a cookie cutter, then toasting and
sprinkling on soup before serv-
ing. Rings (made with doughnut
cutter), animal shapes, hearts,
stars and Diamonds are popular.
Cheese sticks are good too and
are made by sprinkling grated
cheese on bread strips, broiled
and served hot.

Keeping Water Clear

Many aquariums are rendered I'M
slightly by clouded water. Certain
types of fish, especially goldfish,
have tendency to produce this
clouded condition in the aquarium
by their habit of mounting the sand
on the bottom. This stirs up the
sediment, etc., which in turn settles
on the plants and makes them I'M
slightly. A very simple solution for
this problem is a small filter which
can be hung on the tank at the
back, coupled to the air line from
the aerator, and by continual fl
tratioA will keep the water crystal
clear.
