with approximately $3,000,000, before expenses.
Since Jan. 1,
company has already added $8,000,000 to current working
capital, this amount being over and above dividends and the cost oi
plant modernization and other fixed assets.
The greatly expanded
post-war sales have made necessary this large addition to working
capital.
It is expected that additional plant expenditures will not
exceed depreciation and earnings in excess of dividends. —-V. 168,
