were moving upward. Among
these were war stocks. movie
stocks, motor coach stocks, chew
ing gum stocks, soft drink stocks.
and certain chain-store stocks. On
the contrary, the stocks OF COM
panies making mostly refrigera-
tors. oil burners, auto parts, and
the like have declined much more
than the average market. This
has also been true OF the electrical
appliance stocks and the small
loans" stocks. AS declining stock
prices come in 1871 accompanying
advancing business activity, II Is
logical that advancing stock prices
should come in 1912 accompanying
declining business activity. Ce.-
tainly stock prices will recover
sharply from present quotations
even II not topping l94l highes.
The companies to buy into are
those which are enjoying increased
consumer demand and are having
no government interference. Fire.
insurance stocks look good to me
for 1912 investments. Besides,
they should be a good initiation
hedge.
Defense Costs for 1912
During the calendar year 1871
our government spent about $751;
000,000,000 with revenue Of over
one-half this sum. 1t is estimated
that this will be nearly double in
1912. | estimate the government
debt increased during 1871 about
$4,000 100000. Bankers recently
estimated that on December 81,
1912 the government debt will be
about $4,000. 100000 compared
with only S2O,0OO,O0O,OoO in 1922
and less than $4,000, 900, 900 in 1917.
AS a result we are slowly approach
ing state capitalism. The federal
government may some day control
banking, transportation, and farm
ing. am bearish on long-term
