In

corporation pioneered in making available to the
public a means whereby small monthly payments could be invested
in trust shares. The National Investment Program represents a great
advancement from the old methods as it provides a convenient, simple
means for
systematic investment and reinvestment without any addi¬
tional cost to the investor.
It is not only suitable for the vast army of new investors but also
for professional and business 'men who wish to invest regularly some
part of th&ir savings from eafnings. '
f'
*
The National Investment Program was created for the convenience
of the investor.
At the same time, due consideration was given to
simplifying the work of the dealer and salesman so as to make it
prolitable for them to solicit small investment accounts.
One of the great advantages
of the National Investment Program
is that it can be applied to any of the 21 National Securities Series
or to, the shares of First Mutual Trust Fund. Thus,
almost any type
of risk deftred by an investor is available through shares of these
22 portfolios.—V. 170, p. 207.
