Until July 1, 1925 the Midwest company will get all oil produced by the northern Colorado well of the Union Oi? company of California, providing the output does not exchéd 6,000 barrels daily. The price which the Midwest will pay for the Colorado oil for the next nine months will be $1.35 a barro! for oll of 36 degree gravity, and Hab @ barre! for oll of lower grav- These items of time and price are ineluded in the contract aeest by the Midwest with the Unjon several ago. Another provision of “the contract specifies that if water in excess of 2 per cent exists in the oll, the ofl must be dehydrated.

Nature of the Business. Tt is not an easy matter to know dust how much importance should be attached to the nature of the busi- ‘ess in which a corporation: is en- gaged when considering ite securities for investment. In a general way we know that those companies manu- facturing essential articles of every- day Mfe or selling services which ‘@veryone must have offer more con- servative opportunities for invest- ment than those whose business is connected with so-called luxuries. Take for instance, the public utility. Rae ae no doubt that we must light. and water and gas and trpntvortation no matter what the general state of trade. Moreover, the organizations supplying these Recegsaries of life in modern times have a record for stability of earn- ings which commends itself to in- vestors, At the same time there.are failures or rather misfits even in these lin: Local conditions some- work to the disadvantage of a utility and there is always more or ‘Yess_political interference.

The trouble © is that what seems to be entirely a luxury today may tecome a neces- sity tomorrow. The automobile js a notable illustration. Fora long time the motor car manufacturers pro- tested against the term pleasure car as applied to an automobile to dis- tinguish it from a motor truck. This term has now passed out of use Everyone recognizes that modern business could no-more be carried on without the automobile than without the telephone. There is, however, this distinction in favor*of the public utility. The latter id and must be a monopoly Whereas the automobile industry is intensely competitive. This brings in another element to be appraised. It is the lack of competition which is the chief argument for public con- trol of the utility. There is no similar regulation of a business ‘where competition has full play, so that there are advantages and disad- vantages on both sides. Unless all these matters are taken into account detailed analysis of se- curities will'be work only half done. (Mr, Hughes’ eightleth article will appear in tho Casper Tribune next Wednesday.)

Indications that negotiations for the German loan will be completed next week and the belief of many speculators that its offering will be Preceded by ‘a strong stock market probably accounted for the rather extensive buying of stocks in which a large short interest is supposed to exist. Buying, in general was of a more selective character than that in some recent seustons with inter- est In specttities confined to those in which the pools are believed to be operating.
