.STARGAZING
PROFITS FROM REPORTS almost three time. tha arao.,
By FRANCIS P. DOUGLAS

PROFITS FROM REPORTS
Government reports m a. y
lead the way to profits. II
would be well to remember this
the next time you are about to
discard unread some report
into which a lot of work has
gone.
Census reports and forecasts,
Of course. are studied by those
concerned with making every
thing from engagement and
wedding rings to nursery furni-
ture. school books and canes
for the aged. Other agencies
reports are consistently used
by business.
But when 1t comes to special
reports a case in point is the
one published in June, 1852, by
the Presidents Materials Policy
Commission. It was headed by
William S Paley, Columbia
Broadcasting System board
chairman.
There are some who may tell
you they were guided to invest
ments in aluminium producing
companies as a result Of read
ing the Paley report. They
could hardly have lost money
In such investments If made at
the right time.
Aluminium Demand Forecast
The gist Of the report was
that the United States was be-
coming a have-not nation in
respect to natural resources.
The report was made during
the Korean War when produc-
ton was hampered by various
shortages. 1t was argued that
we had built up a tremendous
industrial complex. and metals
were needed in great quantities
to turn out both capital goods
and consumer goods.
The charts showed an i'm
pressive future demand for
aluminium. well beyond the de-
mand for other chief non-fer-
rous metals. One chart showed
that by 1857 the consumption
Of bauxite. the ore from which
| aluminium is obtained. would be
Evening star., 1957-08-29

almost three times the amount
consumed in 1850. In another
place it was estimated that the
1875 consumption of the alum
mum, the metal itself, would
be 3.6 million short tons against
731 900 tons in 1850. This would
be an increase of 1872 per cent.
From $1,000 to S7,7OO-a per.
son would have made substan-
tial profits If he had invested
in 1852 in any one of the four
chief aluminium producers: /:
Aluminium Ltd, Aluminium Co.
of America. Kaiser Aluminium
q Chemical, and Reynolds
Metals.
Assume an investment in
that year of $500 in each of
the four companies. Since then
each company has had one or
more stock splits. The investor
now would have about four
times the number Of shares he
originally bought and his 1000
investment would have grown
to $7.700 on the basis Of the
average Of the high and low
prices so far this year.
The Paley report also point
ed to increased consumption Of
copper, nickel. lead and zinc
by 1875. The percentage in
creases over the 1850 consump-
ton were forecast as follows:
Nickel. 100 per cent; copper,
43; lead. So, and zinc. 80.
Forecasts Not Impressive
These percentages were so
much below that for aluminium
that the forecasts were not par
ticularly impressive. While the
price Of aluminium went up
steadily from 1852, prices Of
the other four metals have not
been as consistent.
Nickel and copper prices
have generally been strong, but
were OF recently. Lead prices
have been weak and zinc. since
1852. has been below its price
Of that year.

produced profits If the market
was caught right. But the
trader would have encountered
nothing comparable to the al
most steady advance of the
aluminium shares.
This is not intended as ad-
vice to buy aluminium and steer
clear Of companies concerned
with the other metals. The out
look in 1852, when the Paley
report came out, and for the
years Immediately thereafter,
is quite different from the out
look now.
What is intended is a eau
ton not to throw away Gov
ernment reports without look
ing into them. They may point
the way to profits.
COIN MYSTER RIES -
A. T. & T. has told its stock
holders that for some reason
nickels are more often depos-
tied in public pay telephones in
Baltimore than dimes. This is
despite the fact the charge for
q local call is 10 cents.
That's one Of the coin lido
syncrasies Of cities which the
Mint runs into. There are sew
eral nickel towns" in the
country. In the case of Balti-
more, several reasons are cited
of hand: 1t is a conserva-
tive city when it comes to
prices and in other respects.
The slot machines which four
ish in Southern Maryland prob
ably account for at least part
Of the demand for and supply
Of nickels. Vending machine
collectors for the area probably
bring nickels into the city in
large numbers.
Boston is cited as a half-dol-
lar town. It likes the 50-cent
piece as well as the 50 bill. In
New York. however. the half
dollars that people bring into
the city tend to pile UP in the
banks.
Washington? No particular
coin vagaries.
