Directors of Lincoln Service
Corp. have declared a 20 per
cent common stock dividend.
payable July l to holders
Of record June IL. Board Chair
man Charles Delmar announced
yesterday.
Regular quarterly cash divi-
dends Of 37l2 cents a share on
the $l.50 preferred and IS cents
a share on common stock also
were declared, payable June IL

Mr.. Delmar pointed out that
the stock dividend will be pay
able after the quarterly cash
dividend and said it is expected
that quarterly dividends will
continue at the 81 annual rate.
The company split stock
4-for-1 in 1850. 2-for-l in 1856

The toughest, stormiest year
OF lights for control Of some OF
Americas best-known corpora
tions Is now winding up with
the annual meetings. A storm
Ter year Of stockholder rebel
lions Is ahead.
So far this year. almost 20
major battles between manage
ments and insurgent stock
holders have been fought In the
open. This Is double the num-
ber Of such proxy conflicts In
the same period OF 1857.
This is only the total of proxy
fights registered with the Sc
curities g. Exchange Commis-
sion and involving corporations
with stocks listed on a securi-
ties exchange. Dozens Of ad-
ditional wars have been fought
over companies with unlisted
securities.
Bitter Fights Ahead
The rsbellions Of 1858 have
been Unexpectedly bitter - but
the background explains the
belligerency OF stockholders
and emphasizes why more bat
ties are on the way.
A key factor in the uprisings
is the recession. Sliding corpo-
ration profits and slashed divi-
dends spur stockholders who
otherwise might be Indifferent
into attacking arrangements
with more than poison pen"
letters. AS one expert put it to
me. Lots Of companies are ex-
tremely vulnerable. Corpora
tions which are piling up big
losses. or which can't Justify
lofty expenses and salaries. or
which have lush cash reserves
or other assets which might
make them worth more dead
than alive-had better be on
the lookout. They're asking for
a raid from outsiders"
Another factor is the pub
licity given to some Of the spec
tacular corporation proxy bat
ties Of this decade-notably
those over New York Central
and Montgomery Ward. Those
wars taught stockholders the
power of their proxies and
made them eager to use the
power.
A third force is the shakipess
Of many postwar glamour
companies" which are now in
trouble or heading for it These,
as another expert remarked
are "over-ripe plums" for busi-
nessmen and financierS con-
stantly seeking for companies
into which they can move at
bargain prices.
A fourth is simply the vast
increase in the number ot
stockholders.

A lesson should be gained
from 'excesSes which resulted
from stimulation of the
American economy in 1855 and
1856 and led to the 1857 recess

last night.
Addressing Washington and
Baltimore chapters of the So

seeds of the current recession
were planted in the boom that
started in 1855.
After the talk, he said he
emphasized the lesson in the
