Genera Mortgage 7 Gold Bonds Non-Callable Due July 1, 1936 At market, to yield about 7.40 Net earnings for the Great Northern Sy8tern for the average of the past I0J4 years was 3 JJ times interest charges (exclusive of income from Burlington stock or interest on bonds secured thereby). Based on actual net earnings, for the very poor railroad year 1920, the Great Northern was among the comparatively few Railroads which we estimate eurned its entire fixed charges for 1920. We estimate they are earned a greater number of times than any of the other roads whose 7 Bonds are indicated below. These bonds will not only be secured by a direct mortgage on 7675 miles of the Great Northern System, but will be further secured (by deposit with the Trustee of 7.2 shares of C, B. & Q. stock per $1000 bond), said stock having for an average of the last 1 0 years had earnings applicable thereto of 16.8 a year.
