(U P )— During last year, 7,797 naw companies, w ith an aggregate capital of $1,017,- 500,000, were registered In Great Britain. . Although thsae registrations showed a decrease of 231 compan­ ies as compared with 1925, the new capital showed an Increase of nearly $400,000,000.

Clothing firms showed the largest number of registrations with 023 listed with capital of ov­ er $40,000,00. The largest ag­ gregate capital in any group was in "stocks and trusts** with more than $75,000,000 capital. Not because bo never could but because he never would.
