Adiulttliuf for tho lluie beinif thai llie.r
operations during the war period wld
prove profitable, what oisuroneo has the
Investor that whan war contracts uro
filled these new projects will b able to
1n.1lnt.1ln dividends on their war time
capitalization. It stnnds to reason that
their permanency of operation will de
pend on thlr ability to meet the com
petition of the old line ordnance comp.,
nles. Tho fact that such competition Is
inevitable at the cVise of the war Is
matter for consideration by the Investor
in Ionic established ordnanc companies
an well as by tho speculator in these
new llutatluns. It may bo uri'd thai
these companies will return to their pre
vlous lines of business, und there would
ba comfort f6r the Inventor In this fact
If it were coupled with the assurance
that they also would return to their
previous Imsls of capltiillxation. Rlsrht
here it will be noted that none of th
old line ordnance companies lncreaed
their capital despite tho enormous rx
penscs they were under for plant ex
