Windy City Before entering the serv-
ice Pvt. Gaffney slung the dukes pro-
fessonally in and around Chicago in

If you fail to get any mail for
week or so, fellows, don't come too
hard on our substitute mail man. Tk5

fellows across the street really have
a technique OH getting into the mess
hall ahead of everybody else, haven't
they, Gene Jackson?
little bird tells me there's to be a
party for the Detachment very soon.

of the Montana Power Co.
Montana booked the investment at an
even $4,000, 900.
1 am familiar with the testimony of
Mr.. Ryan whereby he said the stock of
Montana Power Co. at that time had a
value of $40 a share. So looked at from
any angle, either the continuity of inter
ests or the $40 a share, the amount of
s4,071 900 is a write-up on Montana's
books, because $40 a share would Just
about equate, as Ryan said, to the actual
cash he paid for the properties, or foE
the investment in the properties.
So I say, by any standard or test the
$4,O7l 900 is a write-up on Montana's
books.
Q. Has the company recognized this
write-up in its revised study?
A. It has not. 1t has treated the
par value Of the securities in substance
and effect as the cost Of the properties.
At least that is the result of the COM
pany's studies.
@. In coming to your conclusion with
respect to the Thompson Falls dead, did
you take into account the facts that
you spoke of in your testimony with re-
spect to the Great Falls Jower Co.'S Sec
ond interest transaction?
A.. Yes, that is what I had in mind
when I referred to the continuity of
interest.
@. Mr.. Smith, as previously stated, it
is your position that the amounts CLASH
fable in Account LOT, Electric Plant Ad-
justment, and Account 1O8.17, Common
Plant Adjustments, aggregate $47 1883,
548.95. Account lot provides, among
other things, that the amount therein
shall be disposed of as the Commission
may approve or dicert. What, in your
opinion, is the proper disposition of the
foregoing amount?
A. I agree with the testimony of Mr..
O'Neil n MI. Rainwater, who have
preceded me as to disposition of a total
Of $2,O26, 122.88 which they have ex-
planned in detail. AS to the balance, $45,-
SGT. 426, it is my opinion that amount
should be charged to earned m capital
surplus I believe that it should be
charged to earned surplus to the extent
of $11, 500, 900 in order to leave a cushion
of about $17,5 soc, 900 as a protection to
the company. And that represents al
most two years preferred dividend re-
quirements.
The balance of $34.OOO,OOO in my opin-
ion should be charged to capital surplus
The write-up is really in the capital
stock account. The capital stock should
be reduced to create this capital sur

SOMEWHERE IN D

Submitted by Cpl. Rudolph c. Ivanich, Somewhere in India,
Formerly of 2lO6 Walnut street in Butte
Somewhere in India where the sun is like a curse
And each day is followed by another slightly worse.
Somewhere in India where the Buffalo like to roam,
And the Sacred Cows wear halos as they wend their way toward home.
Where the jackals' nightly bowling robs the sleep Of every man,
And the Whiskeys made of rhinestone and the beers ten chips a can.
Where the rains come down in torrents and the mud is ankle deep.
And the Yanks are always thinking of the land across the deep.
Somewhere in India where the nights are made for love,
Where the moon is like a spotlight with the Southern Cross above,
1t sparkles like a necklace on the throat of a tropic night,
It's a shameful waste of beauty for there's not a skirt in sight.
Somewhere in India where the postman's always late
And a Christmas card in April is considered up to date.
Our pockets bulge with rupee notes but we haven't got a cent,
But we don't miss the money because We couldn't get it spent.
Somewhere in India where the snakes and tigers play
Where a thousand skeeters gather to replace the ones you STAY.
Take me back to good old Butte, let me hear the witches yell,
For this God forsaken outpost is a substitute for hell.

plus, and to absorbe the charge. If hat
is done, the common capital stock will
be SIS, 5000, 900 which is a rather low
amount of common stock for a company
the size of Montana.
To remedy this situation, the deben-
lures in my opinion should be converted
into common That would give common
S25, 600, 900, preferred SIS, 100000, n
that would represent a very nice capital
structure for the company, a sound
capital structure which would improve
the quality of the investments in the
company.
Mr.. Wahrenbrock: My associates
raise a question with respect to whether
you misspoke yourself in giving the price
to which-the market price to which the
preferred stock of Montana Power Co.
had dropped in 1886. I don't personally
recall it. Do you have any recollection
of what your testimony was or what
intended it to be?
! The witness: Here is the situation.
I gave a figure of Ss6 for the preferred
stock before recess. That was based
upon the information at hand. 1t so
happened that the additional information
I have been waiting for from Washing
ton came in when I went back to the
hotel, and from that additional informa-
ton, I found the low price was $50 in
1888.
BY Mr.. Wahrenbrock:
@. Have you had a study made under
your supervision and direction with re-
speet to the practices of a number of
large industrial companies in using COZ
solidated balance sheets2
A. Yes, I have.
