A feature of November financing was the absence of any rail- road issues. New issues of industrial corporations were enormous, the total being $263,- 359,200. Aggregate industrial loans for 11 months of the year was $1,946,630,- 310. This is the largest amount ever issued in a like period. It reflects, says the Wall Street Journal, great prosperi- ty of industrial corporations, present and future, because much of this money will be used for expansion purposes for business already in sight. Among the more important industrial issues brot out in November were Tex- as company stock, $45,000,000; Montgom- ery Ward & Co, stock, $25,500,000; Cuba Cane Sugar company seven per cent de- bentures, $25,000,000, and Studebaker corporation stock, $15,000,000.
