YOUTH DELINQUENCY
BY B. Elizabeth Ellington

Despite all that has been done youth delinquency has
continued TO exist Every time youth problems begin to
decline in section they crop up in another However
the keen cooperation OF the home church, movies tee-
vision and radio will certainly help the standard
of young people intelligent thinking When obscene
pictures and stories longer in their pathway more
Of the young people will think higher intelligence.
The wrong kind of movies frivolous reading televson
and radio plays do not help the youth to raise the standard
Of living These things only help to strip deprive the
young people of their clear thinking temporarily
When young people are going through the adolescence
they need less Of the noisy hustle and hustle of
fusion and more sensible amusement with good morale
which Will give them something TO remember all along
the way of life
The young people are the tender flock of the future
intelligent community and their faculties of consciousness
should be guarded Because there many who would
rather have the of least resistance of the young
people have tendency lean toward the frivolous things
instead Of the better In such the young people
need protection against the evils which would beset them
temporarily.
urging local teevson and radio newspapers and
magazines not to distribute display sell material contain
ing violence and ndecency should be adopted by all
cerned not only should be effective locally bat would
be good rule for every city and township.

BABSON DISCUSSES ANNUAL REPORTS

net earnings to less than they
really are; while small depreciation
can indicate the reverse if not
honestly treated. Second, under
ordinary circumstances the COVER
ment allows an average of about
per cent on depreciation, but on
special military work 25 per cent
is sometimes allowed.
Oil companies have the largest
write-offs. My two favorites are
Continental Oil and Phillips Petro-
leum. Standard Oil of California
also rates well, with over 10 per
cent write-offs each year. The chem
record for write-offs, leading with
Dow Chemical at 13 per cent and
Monsanto Chemical at nearly
per cent. Union Carbide also has
a 9 per cent write-off.
Steel Manufacturers And Mining
Companies
Upon studying the annual re-
ports of the six leading steel COM
panies, it was evident that u. S.
Steel led with a write-off of pc
cent, although National Steel fol-
lowed closely with 6.5 per cent.
The lowest in my list was Inland
Steel, which showed only 3.3 per
cent. On replacemnt basis, prob
ably u. S. Steel would amount to
5000 to S300 a share while today
it is selling at $72. Bethlehem
Steel, its nearest competitor, writes
off less than per cent.
Other reports were on aluminium
and nickel companies, together with
the three leading copper com
panies. namely, Anaconda Company,
Kenecott Copper and Phelps Dodge.
The aluminium cbmuanies-
Milford chronicle., 1956-12-21

couraged by. special government
concessions-lead with write-offs of
over per cnt. Anaconda, hwver,
leads the copper compaies with a
write-off of about per cent. Inter-
national Nickel has a good write
off, but readers who purchase this
stock should have the certificates
stand in the name of some u. S.
bank or stock exchange firm and
not in their own names. Otherwise
such stock is quite embarrassing
in the case of the death of an
individual.
Miscellaneous companies - the
write-offs range from about Is
per cent for International Business
Machines down to less than per
cent for several of tie companies.
One of my favorite stocks, West
inghouse Electric, has write-off
of per cent. The smallest write
offs are in retail trade companies,
due largely to the fact that they
lease most of their stores. F. w.
Woolworth has the largest write
off Of 2 per cent, while both Sears,
Roebuck and Montgomery Ward
write off only a fraction of 1 per
cent. Caterpillar Tractor, Corning
Glass and Eastman Kodak have
good write-offs of from 31a to Az
per cent. General Electric writes
off less than per cent and Gen
eral Motors less than 21k per cent.
General Foods writes off less than
l per cent. In giving these figures
I do not mean that these are the
best stocks to buy, as there are
many important things to consider
besides annual reports fignres. I
do, however. urge my friends to
read each s.cera1 report received.

President Extends Con-
gratulations To Scouts

President Eisenhower, in. his
Christmas message to the Boy
Scouts of America as their Honor
airy President, said that "It is good
to know there are more than three
million American Boy Scouts ded-
icated to the ideals of brotherhood
and community service"
The Presidents greetings to the
nations 3,129,943 Cub Scouts, Boy
Scouts, Explorers and their 1,148,-
165 adult leaders was sent to Ken
meth K. Bechtel of San Francisco,
President of the Boys Scouts of

1855 annual reports of corporations
listed on the New York Exchange.

of these because they had been

Relation OF Price To Net Earnings
The common "quickie rule" for
brokers to use in looking at annual
reports is to study the relation of
price to net earnings. When the
price is 30 to 40 times earnings, it
is usually a sign that the price is
too high; while if the price is
only 5 times net earnings after
fair depreciation and taxes, it is
looked upon as attractive. like
to keep within the range of lotto
20 times earnings.
Mixed-Up Figures
Some of the reports were un-
consciously misleading. For in
stance, some would include the
sale of land or securities with the
gross income, which, Of course,
should not have been done. Fur
thermore, depreciation or write
off" has been handled differently
