Evidence at hand indicates that German Yyards have Toom to keep work on 530 sub- marines of the U-53 class constantly under way. The foregoing statements were made last night by J. Bernard ‘Walker, editor of The Scientifio American, who spoke of the sub- marine peril before the National fe- curity league at the annual meeting at the Hotel Astor. “In war, perhaps more than in any other contest of strength,”. Mr. Walker said, “it is perilous to underektimate the resources and strength of the enemy. That is one of the truisms Wwhich are so0 true that we are in dan- ger of overlooking them altogether. ‘Thus, in regard to the German sub- marine campaign, there is a tendency to underestimate its potential danger What Doctors Use tor Eczema combination of oil of Winter- 3’%“%@ 'rhel to the Allies and, -therefore, in the event of its success, to ourselves.. “It is generally believed that the submarine-infested areas are 80 completely covered by the anti-sub- marine fleets of the Allies that the strength of the German attack is con- stantly being' weakened by very large losses; but if we confine ourselves en- tirely to official statements, we shall find that the allied governments have THURSDAY, MAY 3, 1917 It's toasted Yg:éshci‘gzts, dt:o:r‘: eb:stt;zgf hot morning toast.

Jersey, the component ‘'parts - have distributed $629,000,000 in' dividends. Of this enormous total approximately $406,- 000,000 has been in cash, $223,100,000 in stock.’ The magnitude of this re- turn made to holders of the shares is emphasized by the fict that the oil trust's capitalization when the disso- lution occurred, in May, 1911, was less than one-sixth of the dividends which have been distributed. Durjng 1916 and the first quarter of the current year, according to the records of Dow, Jones & Co., the vari- ous concerns have disbursed $119,192,- 328 in cash and $65,000,000 in stock dividends. - This total of appraximate- ly $184,000,000, disbursed in slightly more than one year, is more than one- third of the aggregate paid out in the preceding four and three-quarter years.. The extraordinary demand for gasol and consequent high prices were the leading factors in the great earnings and big dividends of 1916. Thirteen of the thirty-four Stan- dard Oil concerns are primarily re- fining companies ,and from them have come the bulk of the dividends paid since the dissolution. An exception to this general rule is supplied by the Ohio Ofl company, & producing organization. -In the quarter ended March 31 this company - distributed $3,600,000 in dividends, a total ex- ceeded by only one other concern, the Standard of New Jersey. The latter sent out checks for $4,916,000. N\ HOONOMY APPEAL READ. d London,.
