STANDARD MINING EXCHANGE} B! DON MOOEMAN. asked to put up some margin. 000 - iflllmefili. for themselves. let's take a‘. look at means. Like Buying a House If you buy a house costing about $7.000 and you pay $2.000 in cash and slve a mortgage for the balance, you actually own. $2.000 worth of that house. The cash you paidin repi-g. sents your equity in the house, doesn't it? Margin is the “same thing. Your marsln Wllrrsents your equity in the stockthat the broker has bought for your account. If the market price of the stock appreciates it increases your equity, and also if the price de- prectlates your equity is reduced by the amount of depreciation. There is no economic dlf betwe your purchase oi the house and your dealings with our broker, In both cases it is a i ltlmaie way of doing business. There is no set rule for the amount of margin that a broker may ask of his client. Some brokers ask one- third. some 30 per cent, some ask ‘lo percent, an odd one asks 50 percent. and a few will carry accounts on a 10 point margin. But it is obvious that the more margin a. client has in his account the less chance he has of being forced to sell in a falling mar- ket. Twenty-flve percent. is about the minimum that any “good" house should accept, and the client is fair- ly well protected at that rate.‘ Why Margins Vary Margin depends chiefly on two things-the kind oi security dealt in and the conservative, or anti-conser- vative, ideas of the broker. Near- ly all brokers have a. fixed rate of ceptlons requiring a higher rate. These exceptions would be for high- ly speculative issues or issues which the broker cannot easily or readily use as collateral in hisloans, such as some of the curb stocks ‘and practic- mining brokers) and unlisted secur- ities. The reason that a broker does not like to take unlisted stocks as mar- gin ls because the market for these stocks is so wide, the bid and offer prices are usually points apart in- stead of eights, that there would be very little protection for the broker in a panicky market. Some times the broker will refuse to carry a list- ed stock on margin-but don't hold this against him. He probably knows the risk involved better than you do. and while his refusal to carry it on margin is partly for his own protec- tion he also does not wish to see his client risk his capital unnecessarily. Don't Blame Broker l In the event oi the market price When you bousht that hundred shares of Eastern Gadsetsat 67 5-8 at your broker's last week you were Till-S particular broker's marginal {equin- meuts are 30 per cent. oi the market price, so he asked you for sbout_$2,- The subieet of margin has often been the cause oi long and bitter Some people think that all martin: m too high, while oni- ers, when called for additional mar- gin, feel that the broker is rather overdoing it. Very few people look on a high margin rate aslprotection this‘ mflrBlh thing and see what it -‘ oi your resources he becomes con- cerned over this state oi affairs and sends you a margin call with the in- tention oi keeping you fully margin- ed at all times. Should you make no response to. his call he will watch your account closely and ii the mer- ket condition oi the swck does not look healthy to him he may advise you to sell out. This might mean a loss of iive hundred dollars which you might not be willing to take, but by taking o small loss you may real- ize a few days later that he has sav- ed the remainder of your two thousand for you. Failing to take your broker's advice to sell or depo- sit more margin, suppose a further " follows until your margin is nearly cxhausted. The broker has warned you of the’ market condition and has done what he can to protect you. You have now practically no equity in the stock, so the broker proceeds to , tect himself by selling your account. Proper Protection when you deposited thirty percent at the time of purchase the broker supplied the other seventy percent. and when your equity is gone the broker will not take any further loss out of his own pocket. He couldn't and stay in business. It may hap- pen after your account has been sold that the market improves. and the Swell you held may ‘more than re- cover lts loss. But remember that you were warned when the loss first" started and if you have nothing left now it is not the fault oi the broker. Every reliable firm doing a margin business makes some sort of an agree- merit with the client. On the pur- chase notices is prinled “That should the broker advance all or part oi the purchase money, he reserves the right to sell the customer's securities at said broker's discretion at any time without notice and at public or private sale when in said broker's opinion the coriditlonoi the account warrants such action," or words to this effect. Of course, it is not presumed that the broker will sell an account just because he feels like it. Cust- om has ruled that the client be first given a fair chance to deposit the re- quired margin, but the broker has the right to decide what constitutes good margin. Cash or certified cheques are always good, and while other iornis of collateral such as stocks or bonds may be very valuable to the owner they may not seem good margin to the broker, who is in the same position as the banker. No bank will accept a. loan unless satis- fied with the security offered. In offering margin to your broker accept his appraisal of it: he knows what it is worth for the purpose and he will take anything that is good. Ii possible offer him more than he wants not for his, but for your own protection, and you will sleep easier at night. 1928 DOMINION INCOME TAX RETURNS The income tax branch of the De- partment oi National Revenue is in- augurating a new method of supply- ing the necessa y forms to incorpor- ated companies direct from Ottawa.

Th0llSBYidS-— thousands uncountable in the course oi centuries have fared valiantly and uncomfortably across that narrow strip of restless water which, as "the Channel" to the Bri- ton and “the Pas de Calais" to the Gaul has, since time has been, sell- arated this little isle "set in a silver sea" from the continent of Europe. Then tliere ensued a controversy of extreme and unnecessary bitterness between the civilians and the soldiers. generally speaking, include the politicians, from that day to this have maintained that the advantages of free inter- course, uninterrupted by mal de mer. would be of incalculabe though direct benefit to trade and to international relations.

For some time she had not enjoyed good health. but the end came rather , unexpectedly. She was a woman who lvas held in high esteem for her ltilirlly deeds and gentle ways. I: was a pleasure to, visit her home. and her passing will. be mourned by a wide circle of friends. For many years she was a member of the lilargatc Methodist, Church, now United, and took a. and l tie spirit quietly passed away to the Home above where pain and suffer- ing are unknown. I Of a loving and cheerful dispo- sition. she was laved by all her many. friends and neighbors. who in her ‘illness ministered to her comfort.‘ I The departed wasacorrsistent mom- lber of the Presbyterian Church at ‘Peter's Road and she lived her re- Tligion in her daily life. W _ ' During the period of her illness ‘and suffering she resigned herself fwllfllly to the care of Him, upon l whose promises she relied with strong ifaith. Her bible was her daily ‘guide {along the pathway of life. f Frequently/she prayed for relief ,fl'om pain, and expressed a “siirlong desire to be “I-lome" with Jesus on LWllOIYI her trust was so firmly’ built. It is consoling and helpful-to the bereaved husband to know that his showed the high esteem in which 119'. dear one is now at rest. and her was held.

And now for the cost. The estimate is for $945,000.000—say a. billion. Of this the English section oi 6B miles would consume 290,000,000 dollars, the French section of 160 miles, $495,000,- 000. The actual tunnel would account for the balance of some thirty miles and would cost about $160,000,000 or so. The problems of ventilation and of defence are for the engineers and the sons oi Mars. As for the engineers they say it can be done; as for the War Office it is inspired by the "spir- it which denies." _ Had this country listened to the counsels oi Whitehall, the country would still be defended by bows and arrows. Whatever the military aspect may be, and it must of course be given re- spect, the effect on the trade of Greet Britain will be incalculable-tiimis- ands of men now out of work will be ‘employed. the iron and steel trades will flourish, and the ultimate bene- working of highspeed name be con- ltruotedtollnklnndonandhrisby submarine tunnel."
