*; Accbrding'to, Joel 8. Mitchell, President, this action was taken be¬
"of the necessity for bringing dividends into reasonable rela¬
with earnings."
Preliminary figures, he continued, indicate that earnings for 19'48,
after preferred dividends, would be slightly more than $2 per .share
paid on the common, stock last year.
In 1947, profits were equal to
$2.32 per common share.
' ••>:
While some improvement in 1949 earnings is expected, Mr. Mitchell
said, "the present uncertainties regarding commodity Prices, corpo¬
rate tax rates, wage levels, as well as the need for increased expendi¬
tures for capital assets empha.si.ze the importance of following a con¬
servative dividend-policy, at this time."

the 52 weeks ended Dec. 27, 1947, with the rise reflecting larger dollar
end volume sales of Tip-Top bread, Faris R. Russell, Chairman of the
Board, said Jan. 21 in the annual report to stockholders.
While sales of Tip-Top bread increased last year, demand for Ward
cake products for most of 1948 continued the somewhat lower trend
of 1947, Mi\ Ru§sell reported, adding, however, that "with the holiday
jseason there was a gratifying increase in our cake sales volume."
'
Working capital of the company as of Dec. 25, 1948 showed only a
nominal increase over 1947,, because of 1948 addition to property and
plant of $3,344,329, which, after application of the year's provision for
the relatively low allowed depreciation and for other related
items,
resulted in a net increase for the year in the property and plant ac¬
count of $2,005,577, according to the report. Inventories of raw ma¬
terials, products, and supplies were down $1,122,860 compared with a
year earlier, reflecting the readier availability of ingredients and sup¬
