Once considered local and insignificant concerns, they have sought capital in the Wall Street financial markets. Speculators are now accustomed to buy White Rock on margin or-if they dare-sell Canada Dry Ginger Ale short. Some of those temperance-drink shares have done very well by their holders in this year's stock market. Recently the Welch Grape Juice Co. for the first time since February, 1921, resumed common stock dividends by a payment of 25? a share...
