The concern with which the av-
erage citizen has made an effort
in the past eight years to learn
and understand the complexities
OF finance has shown itself in the
number who are buying stocks
and bonds on various plans.
The spread OF common stock
ownership among all income
groups has a strong stabilizing
factor in the securities market as
the investors are not spectators,
but are solid citizens holding them

stockholders and found that T.
500. 900 individuals in this country
owned share of publicly-held cor
porations. These investors were
from all income and educational
levels. There were 1900, 900 share
owners with incomes of more than
$4,000 a year; 100000 with in
comes between 5000 and $40, 900
and 2,270,00 with incomes of less
than $1,000
The survey also showed their
backgrounds to be AS varied as
their income levels: partial list
Ing showed executives, clerks,
farmers, small shop keepers,
professional men, skilled semi
skilled and unslSilled wori<men,
and housewives.
Most of this group of investors
purchased stock in odd lots, this
is. they buy less than 100 shares
at a time, yet in 1854 odd-lot pur-
chases were valued at nearly az
billion dollars.
Effects OF Spread Ownership
With more and more persons
buying shares of business each
year, there is much less chance of
few spectators topping the
market. A greater voice by the
average person has been attained
by his ownership and his stability
and thriftiness are also reflected
the long run on securities posi-
tons and earnings.
The continued purchase of Sc
curities by average income people
shows that they have faith in the
American business community,
which is good not only for the
commercial sector of our econ
omy. but also good for the coun-
try as \ whole.
In this we have taken great
step from government by the
many and ownership by a few to
government by many and owner
ship by many.
I feel that az the numbers who
purchase securities continues to
grow, business win become more
sound and more conscious OF its
ethical and moral performances.
These new classes of owners
are sound. thrifty people, who,
after providing for emergencies
with an adequate savings account
and adequate insurance. seek to
augment their incomes by earn
ings from securities.
They are performing a much
needed function for communities
and Il is my hope that their faith
remains over the years, so that
the nation may continue TO enjoy
sound prosperous condition

Dump Grounds

A dump ground lined with scattered
trash,
Discarded, broken toys
That one time lit the laughing eyes
Of happy girls and boys.
What once brought some child shouts
And many hours of mirth
Is now unwanted, crushed debris,
Half buried in the earth.
IT'S sad to look at trash without
A future or a goal,
But we must know that joy once given
Is etched on someone's soul.
