While earnings might be considered to justify the payment of a somewhat larger dividend, nevertheless it was felt- that a conservative policy should be adopted in regard to conserving company's cash, largely because of income tax requirements and the tremendously increased payroll required on account of the company's greatly enlarged operations. $381,337 cost__^_„ ' . 10,469,911 Triumph Explosives, Inc.—Semi-Annual Report— 1942 $6,365,344 bonds ( .
