FINANOAL NOTES 



The board of directors of the United States Rubber 

 Co., at their meeting. July 7, declared the usual 2 per 

 cent quarterly dividend on the preferred stock, but de- 

 ferred action on the common sjock dividend. The sales 

 for the first six months of the year have been satis- 

 factory under the business conditions that have prevailed. The 

 directors have made a careful review of the situation for the 

 balance of the year, and the outlook is encouraging, especially 

 as to tire and footwear sales. While the financial position of 

 the company is strong, the directors deem it conservative to defer 

 action on the common stock dividend for the present. 



The directors of The B. F. Goodrich Co. have declared the 

 regular quarterly dividend of \% per cent on the preferred stocK, 

 payable October 1 on stock of record September 21, 1921. Sales 

 for the first four months were unsatisfactory but since May 1 

 there has been a substantial increase and the liquidation of the 

 inventory has been suflScient to reduce bank loans since the first 

 of the year from $29,000,000 to $14,900,000. If present conditions 

 continue, the company will be able to pay off practically all bank 

 indebtedness by the end of the year. 



The Fisk Rubber Co., Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts, has 

 passed the quarterly dividend of l-M per cent on its first preferred 

 stock, due on August 1. 



Current earnings of the Lee Rubber & Tire Corporation, Con- 

 shohocken, Pennsylvania, are running well ahead of the dividend 

 requirements. Sales for the first three months of the year show 

 a decrease compared with the corresponding period of last year, 

 but since .^pril 1 there has been a marked improvement, making 

 necessary day and night operations, and production is now running 

 at record figures. The present schedule calls for 2,000 tires a 

 day, which is the largest in the history of the company and the 

 demand is greater than the production. The company is free of 

 all incumbrances and the total bank debt is only $500,000. There 

 is cash on deposit in excess of this amount. 



The Federal Rubber Co., Cudahy, Wisconsin, has passed the 

 quarterly dividend of Xyi per cent due on the preferred stock at 

 this time.
