IMJj 75H-S9'i occasions to create the impression of a.j possioic change in the Pennsylvania llallroad dividend policy when the di rectors meet to take action on this quf" tlou at their meeting in October, l'rom a source of information generally con sidered reliable and authoritative it is stated positively that no change in. the divldrd distribution lids been either considered or is contemplated by the board of directors. Xor is there any probability of change in the dividend policy during the term of the govern ment control. No one can tell what conditions may be created when the railroads arc re turned by the government to their secu rity holders, but this would be A tas,c of borrowing trouble ahead of time. At the moment, measured by all trust worthy signs, the "Pcnnsy" dividend seems to be safe. Tills, in all events, apparently is the conclusion of in vestors ns indicated in the continued Increase of i.ew stockholders. On Au gust 1 the number of persons holding the stock reached a new high, record of 112,2(11. nn increase of 018 over July mid an increase? nf WX over August 1 last j ear. On August 1 the nvernge holding was 9S.nr shares, compared with SU. tJ shares on .Itilj 1 and 03. SO shares 11 year ago. 1 The number of stockholders in the last two years has increased 1S.012. while tlit average holding lias been ro- iliiced from 10.".Jir to SS.P5 shares. An interesting feature in connection with this growing list of stockholders is thut women aie still bu.ting tlie stock in greater relative degree than male hold ers. On August 1 the women stock holders held 2!)..'!1 per crnt. or ?1f(l, 000.000 par value of the ?.-00,000,000 capital stock. Another striking change is in the foreign holdings, which' has fallen to 1.S0 per cent. Buying M&sr A Reaction T h e recent decline greatly reduced the market valuation of standard securities, and the opinion is quite gen eral in financial' circles' that the technical posi- tion of the market has been considerably strengthened. At present, many issues in view of the increas ing prosperity of the industries they reprc-, 'sent at prevailing quo- tations would seem to merit consideration from discriminating in vestors.
