SSN OES a THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1917. BANKING AND FINANCIAL How Modest F ortunes Have Grown from Small Investments in Motor Stocks An investment of $1000 in one of the young truck companies of six years ago has accumulated par value of $26,520. Last year this Company paid a 40% cash dividend. In 1915 it paid 32% in cash and 150% in stock. In spite of rising cost of materials, profits per car have risen from $263 to $335 in the past three years. This is not a lone instance of profits in motors. Another truck company records 228% earned in three years, and another 53'2% in 1915. Note the quotations from Motor in this advertisement.

Fulton Motor Truck Co., of New York has opened another great 43 opporinnity by bringing to the public the most remarkable 114 ton truck ever designed—a full 3000-pound capacity to sell at the phenomenally low price of $1090 flat. It has opened a new price field, more than $200 under its nearest competitor in gize and quality, and achieved success by selling the originally planned output of 1,000 trucks, immediately the sales models were shown, Entire Year’s Output Sold in Four Days It has been done a dozen times in pleasure cars, there are several striking examples in the motor truck field, and now the In the Turkish Room of the Waldorf would take many times the possible output, Astoria Hotel, where the first public ex- and plans were immediately made to at hibition of Fulton trucks was made during | anufacture for 1917. the New York Automobile show, the year’s building schedule was absorbed in 4 days, New York City took S00.
