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."
