A good way for equip- ment companies to do business is to have stock in equipment consuming concerns or vice versa; or for both to have similar New York bankers, who alternately float the stock of one or the other concern and natur- ally want to sec them prosper.

Consequently sixty per cent. of its rubber is secured outside of British trust channels, But docs that mean it buys the rubber at a lower price? ish rub- The rubber pro- ducing company, owned by the rub- ber consuming company, merely charges its parent company the full market price.
