Cuba Cane's Earning Prospects 



The Cuba Cane Sugar Corporation, it is 

 expected, will pay off its $7,500,000 notes 

 next month, and it is estimated that the 

 company will show $10,000,000 earned for 

 the preferred stock at the end of the cur- 

 rent year. Conservative dividend policies 

 on the part of the Cuban companies are 

 confidently expected. It is pointed out 

 that all of the sugar shares are still selling 

 much below the high prices of the year, 

 many of them having recovered only about 

 one-third of the price losses recorded in 

 the recent liquidating movement. 



The stock market as a whole is showing 

 convincing signs of gathering outside mo- 

 mentum. It is ijoteworthy that the vol- 

 ume of trading shows a tendency to in- 

 crease and particularly that nearly every 

 active issue is steadily moving forward. 

 Declines appear only in the neglected and 

 inactive stocks. The Japanese disaster, 

 while it chilled sentiment temporarily, has 

 caused no important selling, while the re- 

 cent strength of sterling exchange and 

 more optimistic business reviews have been 

 helpful influences. — Facts About Sugar.
