The real expectation is :or 1938 when $50 a ton will be obtain- ed for newsprint instead of the $42.50 3 ton recently obtained. Against these expectations are the iacrs that labour and material costs were greater in 1936, and that recent wage increases will make the costs even larger for 1937. It is anticipated. how- ever. that the company will be able to earn sufficient at least to pay after de- preciation, depletion and taxes, the bond interest and whatever interest will be required on any security issued to take care of the arrears of bond in- tcrest. Failed to Stay to Support Alleged Gold Brick Case One of the difficulties met with by the reorganizers is that they have to deal with 21 Protective Committee on behalf of $1 million of '7 per cent. pre- ferred and $34.9 millions of 6 per cent. preferred which ex-pects far more in a reorganization plan than would have been the case two years or even a. year ago. Then there was no way of judg- ing as to the value of the company's assets because it was operating in an industry which was bankrupt and ae- cepting prices which gave it no chance to becoming solvent. That situation, is entirely changed, and it is understood that preferred shareholder representa- tives are insisting that assets of the company are worth much nearer book1 values than one would have believed!l possible even two years ago. As a result the preferred stock has gene up five points in the last two days of market trading and this is a reflec- tion of the hope of the new holders of the preferred that their interests will be recognized in the reorganization plan. On the other side some repre- sentatives of the bondholders are argu- ing that the newsprint industry has “the inherently unstable characteristics of an overcapacitated industry," and they argue that dividend payments on preferred may be delayed for years. Undoubtedly the stocks have been bought by the many people who have been willing to take long speculative chances. but these and the old holders are apparently ready and willing to fight any plan which does not give them the recognition which they think the stock is entitled to. If the plan were to rec3gnize the L‘resent market value of the preferred stc;k or even the peak of $80 a share shown earlier this year, that would al- low of from $7 millions to $14 millions being written off the assets of the com- The preferred shareholders argue that the industry may have been over- capacitated with reference to the low points of the depression years, but that if, is not cvercapacitated now and that it will nct be even at. the higher price of $50 a ton for newsprint.

In fact. we have often wondered what happened to the various projects for tree-planting that have been suggested from time. to time. Some years ago Mr. E. Blake Winter was active in proposing an avenue oi trees from the junction of Number Three Highway clown Division Road to Kingsville. Still another much talked about scheme was planting trees along the highway from Devonshire Track at least to Walker Road. These. and a number of other plans were put for- ward at different times in the last, ten years. But the enthusiasm never lasted into the planting season. the trees and their beauty being all forgotten by the time the proper months had arrived. What if there are only 100 acorns from England. We have plenty of the oaks right in Ontario from which we can get trees to line the roads. And there are maples and elms and many other fine trees which will serve just as well. While there would he- senti- mental value to the avenue. grown from English acorns. we do not have to de- pend on such seed. had refused to. give up the house. and that copies of the been posted on the front, and of his home and in public 13 To his own counsel. w.
