Today the Reichsbank stock with its 8% plus is speculative. Dr. Schacht proposes to give it almost the stability of a bond by substituting for 8% plus a flat 12%.

Last week, while most textile companies gloomily faced an even sharper depression, Amoskeag startled everyone by declaring a dividend of $1 per share and a 5% of salary bonus to its 10,000 employes...
...many of the students in College subsist either upon monthly allowances or some form of dividend, and as most of these are received upon the first of every month, they arrive just too late to be of service in settling the problem of the term bill. It is therefore suggested that it would be a great convenience to a good many undergraduates if the authorities in Lehman Hall could afford to extend the limit on term bills for a day or two past the first of the month...
