One of the most encouraging de- velopments of the times in the in- vestment business is the spread of the customer ownership idea, So far this new plan has been confined to the public utilities, principally the electric light and power and gas companies. It used to be the cus- tom when a public utility needed new capital, and they are contin- ually in need of capital, for the of- ficers to go to the bankers and sell securities, stock if possible and bonds if necessary. This financing however, was done in the great cen- ters such as Wall Street where new capital is to be had. The people who bought the service the public utility had to sell had nothing to do with financing. The hew idea is to go direct to the utility's custo- mers when new money js needed. Of course it cannot all be raised this way or even the larger part. But enough can be done as has etn abundantly proved to give the ‘customers of the utility a direct and personal interest in its welfare. For the most part the securitiés sold “have been in the form of preferred stock and generally the salesmen have been the employees of the company. From the corporation's standpoint the plan has proved a success not only in developing a new source of capital but in cult!- vating a spirit of good will in tho community which has a very real if intangible value. From the stand- point of the customer owner the plan has proved beneficial in that he has been able to obtain a sound security with reasonable return and one with the progress of which he js able to keep in close touch. The amount of money which can be raised in this way is far beyond the estimetes made by those who first suggested the plan. It has also resulted in keeping for the community the capital which might otherwise have ‘been dissipated in buying fraudulent promotion stocks. It has met the criticism that op- portunities for the safe investment of small sums have been lacking because it was too expensive for investment bankers to cater to the investor who had only one hundred dollars spare capital. The public utliity can well afford this expense in return for the cooperation they secure from their customers. Trade News Live Stock.

Phone 1920W, Has, Yellowstone Highway and A, Grain STOCKS oLOW ON EXCHANGE Price Movements Irregular On Approach of Holiday NEW YORK, May 28.—Stock prices drifted idly today as the ap- proach of a holiday dulled the edge of speculative trading. Public Utilities gave the best demonstra- tion of strength, but some of the active industrials and specialties were heavy. Sales approximated 600,000 shares, NEW YORK, May 28.—Reaction- ary price movements in evidence yesterday were checked to some ex- tent at the opening of today's stock market. Several market leaders, in- cluding United States Steel, Baldwin and Anaconda opened higher, but some of the other shares, notably the motors and oils, drifted ir- regularly lower. Norfolk and west- ern advanced 1%, leading a number of rail issues higher. Coco Cola dropped more than a point. Contrasting movements featured the early dealings with shares which had started higher develop: ing a reactionary tendency. Bald- win and Norfolk and Western drop- ped back sharply from their early highs, but several minor specialties, including international paper and congoleum, made good headway. Public service of New Jersey ad- vanced a point to a new 1924 top price at 45%. Chesapeake and Ohio and Wabash preferred “a” streng- thened. Prices drifted within narrow and irregular limits throughout the morning, with trading re&tricted by the absence of public participation. Public service of New Jersey con- tinued to better its previous high levels for the year. Chesapeake and Ohio, with a gain of about a point, duplicated its 1924 top price at 80%. Advances of more than a point also wore registered by Pull man, tobacco products issues and General Refractories, but these gains were offset by loses of 1 to 2% points in United States Rubber issues, Skelly Oil, Stromberg and New Orleans, Texas and Mexico. Filing of a government suit to col- lect more than $6,000,000 alleged back taxes contributed to the heaviness of Coco Cola. Call money opened at 3% per cent. Support was extended to United State Rubber first preferred after it had touched 66%, the lowest of the year and it rallied to above 68. St. Paul common and preferred also moved up a point, but Norfolk & ‘Western ran off rapidly to 122%, compared with the early best figure of 126%. Manhattan Guaranteed Stock broke four points. All of the four classes of Market Street Rail- way issues were up 1 to 4% points while Philadelphia company and United Railways and Investment common and preferred also gained 1 to 2.

GRAIN PRICES LOSE GROUND Price Declines In Both Wheat and Corn Develop In Chicago CHICAGO, May 28.—Influenced chiefly by reports that Kansas has enough moisture, the wheat market averaged lower in price today dur- ing the early trading. More rain was reported to have fallen in Kan- sas late yesterday and last night. Besides, improvement of the crop Prospect was also reported. The opening which faried from un- changed figures to %c lower with July $1.07% to $1.075% and Septem- ber $1.08% to $1.08%, was followed by a moderate general setback and then something of a reality.
