rectors have declared the 228th
semi-annual dividend amounting
to per cent on capital stock or
80 cents share.
TV Shortage a Possibility.
Prospects for shortage of ra-
dio and television sets early in
1853 and predictions of an advance
in prices was discussed in trade
circles here today.
"One national brand producer
claims it will have no factory in
ventory of radios or TV sets by
the end of this year and that it IS
oversold on TV sets until April" "
declared a bulletin from the Elec-
trio Institute of Washington.
Another producer thinks a
shortage of TV picture tubes might
develop" the bulletin added. This
firm also thinks retail prices could
go up, due to higher labor and ma
terials cost.
"Wage boosts for about 100000
workers in the electrical industry
have been approved by the Wage
Sterilization Board and these
boosts average about 7 cents an
hour, plus some fringe benefits,
such as higher Saturday pay" the
institute commented.
Retail Profits Improve.
Net profits from merchandising
operations of department stores
with volumes of more than ST
million amounted to "a per cent
of sales in nine months ended
October 80, compared with 1.9 per
cent of sales in the same 1851
period.
This was announced today by
the Controllers Congress of the
National Retail Dry GooslS As
sociation.
However, Federal income taxes
siphoned off a larger portion of
the department store sales dollar
with the result that net gain after
income taxes was only 1.6 per cent
of sales VS.. is per cent a year
earlier.
Data for the study was sub
mitted by 181 stores with aggre-
gate annual sales Of around So
billion. The improvement in nler-
chandising profits was due to a
slightly better gross margin and a
somewhat lower operating eX-
pense ratio, the report stated.
Bonus Helps Needy Family.
Employees of Arlington Trust
Co., who received the annual
Christmas bonus of S per cent of
salaries. have donated 5 per cent
of the bonus to provide Christmas
care for a less fortunate family
This has become a company ira
dition.
This year, the contributions
will provide food, clothing and
toys for a family consisting of
mother. father, three children
and a grandmother.
Taking part in the Christmas
tradition were 40 employees of the
bank.

While Other Stocks
Hold Steady Course
By the Assocjoted Press

with losses confined to fractions.
Volume was excellent, running
at a pace we'll ahead of yester-
days 81 million shares.
Supporting the rails in the un-
changed to higher class were
steels, rubbers. coppers and most
oils Other areas were steady to
a shade lower.
Missouri Pacific preferred, which
shot ahead 75s yesterday, started
today on a block of 1900 shares
up "a at 59la, but it lost ground
rapidly thereafter and was down
around 2 points at times.
Atlantic Coast Line and Sea-
board railroad were up between 2
and 3 points at times, but there
wasn't much activity shown.
Far more active at higher prices
were Pennsylvania, which opened
on a block of 5000 shares. New
York Central, which started on
5000 shares, and Baltimore g.
Ohio. which opened on 4,500
shares.
Higher stocks included Southern
Pacific, Southern Railway, Alle-

lowered to achieve the desired
image size. The manually
focused machine must be reset
after each adjustment for image
size. The latter is quite a bit
less expensive and should be
fully adequate for those who
have good vision. If your vision
is defective or il you have diff
'f1culty in seeing in semi-gloom,
get the autofocus.
Two Lighting Systems
Light systems Of enlargers are
either diffuse or condenser types.
The condenser system is ad-
vantageous to those whose film
size is. IS nm. or no greater
than 2Ax3A because they di-
rect a maximum of light through
the negative to give a shorter
printing time. The glass COM
ponents of the condenser absorb
a great amount of the heat gem
Grated by the light source and
help prevent the negative from
becoming overheated.
1t is very important that the
enlarger be equipped with a
good lens or it may undo all the
advantages which you obtained
with the fine lens on your
camera. The lens must also be
adequate to cover the full mega
tive area so that the projected
image will be sharp in the cor
ners as we'll as in the center.
Make sure that the lens has a
focal length equal to the dag
onal Of the largest negative that
will be used.
Gloss-Iess Carrier Best
Another feature worth check
ing on is the negative carrier.
The glass-less type is best, for
glass collects dust and finger
prints, both of which can spell
trouble with a capital T while
printing. A negative carrier
that will adapt to several sizes
is also a considerable advantage,
although not a must. You can
make an adapter or mask with
out too much trouble. The more
expensive machine may even
have fitting lensboard or mega
tive carrier to compensate for
converging lines but. as we have
already pointed out, this de-
feet can be taken care of by
fitting the easel.
An easel, by the way, is in
dispensable for it performs a
number of important functions.
First, it holds the paper still
and fat so that you may be sure
that the prints will be sharp
all over. It also provides you
with a means for masking to
obtain the print shape you de-
sire and produces the white
margins that make the print
stand out. If. for some reason.
you find yourself without an
easel. you can make a fair sub
stitute by placing a sheet of
clear. clean glass over the paper.
This will hold the paper fiat.
but you will have to take care
of the margins with strips of
cardboard or other similar ma
terial.
