FINANCIAL DEPARTMENT

(Continued)

money for commercial purposes, interest rates will rise and the current market price for bonds will fall. But the person who is holding for an investment need pay no attention to these fluctuations. They have no bearing on the intrinsic value of his security.

Let us again emphasize the rule of not being in a hurry to make an investment, but of securing, if possible, definite information regarding a security from some one who has proper financial knowledge before the investment is made. Beware of making an investment upon the advice of a friend. Our mail

THE OUTLOOK

indicates that this is a very prolific
source of loss. The friend may have the
best intentions in the world, but it is
amazing how often ignorant advice is
given under the guise of friendship. It
is far better to secure the advice of your
local banker, of a first-class bond house,
or of the financial department of one
of the leading magazines before making
a commitment. Again let us repeat, "It
is better to be safe than sorry."

Perhaps we have overstressed the
seamy side of the financial department,
but experience has taught us that cer-
tain elementary facts cannot be empha-
sized too strongly. We are happy to say,
however, that the vast majority of the
inquiries we receive are of such a char-

acter as to make us pardonably proud of the good sense possessed by Outlook readers.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q. I have $3,500 worth of registered 31 per cent United States Liberty Bonds. The taxexempt feature of these bonds possesses no advantage in my case, and I feel that my money should command a higher rate than 3% per cent. Would you advise changing these bonds for United States 4% per cent Liberties?

A. The only advantage in holding the 32 per cent bonds is the taxexempt feature. These are therefore held chiefly by people of large income. Where this feature is not of importance Iwe believe that these bonds should be exchanged for the 44 per cent Liberties,

Banking Credit and Service

both credit and service.

When you have both available, commen-
surate with your needs within one in-
stitution, you have a complete banking
connection.

This Company is in a position to meet the
needs of a business for credit accommoda-
tion, in harmony with sound banking
practise, whether the requirements be ex-
tensive or moderate.

In addition to placing adequate credit
facilities at the disposal of its customers,
this Company has the organization and
equipment which enable it to render every
service in domestic banking, foreign
banking, and in all trust relationships.

We shall be pleased to discuss in detail with
you the exceptionally broad facilities which
an account with us places at your command.

so as to take advantage of the higher rate of interest. The security is the same in each case. The 44 per cent bonds are now selling about one point lower than the 31⁄2s. In making the exchange you would also, therefore, secure about one point profit.

We also suggest that you consider the new Government long-time 44 per cent bonds which have just been issued. These are also selling a trifle below the 32 per cent bonds and are of equal security. In your case, it would seem that you are sacrificing interest by holding the 31⁄2s for the sake of the taxexempt feature, which you state you do not need.

Q. Will you kindly give me a report on the present standing of the American Telephone and Telegraph stock?

A. American Telephone and Telegraph

Starting a Company? stock is considered as an especially good

[blocks in formation]

investment stock because of the nature of the business and the great stability of the company's earnings. The report for the first six months of 1922 shows net earnings of $32,364,133, an equivalent of $5.75 a share earned on the amount of capital stock outstanding during the first six months period. This is at the rate of $11.50 a year per share. This company recently offered its stockholders the right to subscribe to $150,000,000 of new stock at par. Practically all of this stock has been subscribed for, which of course increases the total outstanding capitalization and makes a corresponding increase in the amount of earnings necessary to pay the present 9 per cent dividend. The report for the third quarter of 1922 shows earnings well in excess of dividend requirements. The business of this company is such a necessary and stable one that its net earnings fluctuate but little from year to year. The demand for new telephones is constantly increasing, and there is therefore every assurance that the company will continue to cover its dividend requirements with a satisfactory margin, even allowing for the recent addition to its capitalization. The report for the first six months shows that the company now has more than 210,000 stockholders, which is an indication of the wide popularity of this stock as a suitable investment for the small holder. The stock is now selling around 122, which gives a yield of somewhat over 7 per cent.

Building for "Sixty"?

W

HILE working and earning for today, every individual should also see to it that there is a surplus building up for the years of declining earning power which are sure to come.

The Halsey, Stuart & Co. Investment Plan fits perfectly into such a scheme. It establishes a means of obliging the investor to save and invest regularly a determined part of his income then makes his savings grow remarkably through the process of compound interest.

An Accumulation of $50,000 in Safe Bonds

at age 60 or before is within the reach of men of even moderate income. Business men, professional men and high-salaried executives can set a much higher mark and build toward it with assurance.

Our booklet, "A Sure Road to Financial Independence," tells how the Halsey, Stuart & Co. Investment Plan fits all ranges of incomes-shows how to apply it on incomes from $2500 to $50,000 a year. Let us send you a copy, without obligation.

AMERICAN TELEPH

AND ASSOCI

The Dollar

The daily actions of most of us are influenced by the messages received over the telephone, and yet few of us stop to think of the men and women, and the mechanisms, which help to make that daily service possible.

Maintenance, repairs, and the work of handling calls, must constantly be carried on in good times or in bad, and they must be paid for, in order that your telephone service may be continued.

The average dollar will buy to-day less than two-thirds of what it would buy before the war. This means that it costs,

on the average, half as much again to buy most of the things that are necessary for keeping the country going; but the advance in telephone rates is far less than this

average.

In fact, gauged by the present purchasing power of the dollar, telephone service in the country as a whole is costing the subscriber less than it did in 1914.

The Bell System generally has been able to meet higher commodity prices and increased wages by means of new economies in operation and the increased efficiency of loyal employees.
