Other reports had It that the contrnct
amounts to neatly S70.000.000 nnd that on

a large amount of the stock placed on
the market was for foreign nccount, al
though It could not be denied that thcro
was a considerable amount of homo llqul
'datlon for quick profits.
The railroad equipment shares held
pretty much all of the advance made
In the carlv session New York Air
Brake gained IB points, but lost some of
this, and Republic Iron and Steel wnfi
pushed to the foreground, tho common at
One time being up nearly 9 points and
the preferred moro than 5 points.

To deal in "futures" is to
speculate.
Many so-called investments
arc based on futures. They
are not really investments.
The clement of speculation
dominates.
The conservative investor
considers only the past and
the present so far as earnings
are concerned and tangible
assets so far as value is con
cerned. Our offerings are based
upon past performance, es
tablished earnings and tan
gible assets. The value and
the earnings are ascertained.
