Newspaper Page TextfOOR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNS Friday' Feb. IS, 1145 Diversify Your Investments Babson Suggests Ten Groups H Usui W. BabaOB Babson Park, Mass., Feb. S3 (Special Correspondence) This week, let me talk oa the neces sity of dividing up your invest merits in order to get safety. In other words don't put too many eggs In any one basket U you have $10,000 invested or to invest, divide it among ten groups ol securities. The follow ing groups and ideas are not the only ones to consider, but they aerve as illustrations. (1) MANUFACTURING! Se lect some company like a paper, textile or oil company which is In a "repeat" business rather than company dealing in equipment which lasts a life time. Thus, beware of many shipbuilding, aviation or ma chine tools at this time. (2) PUBLIC UTILITIES) Se lect the stock of some -good company which Is being elimi nated by the Securities & Ex change Commission and which should liquidate for consider ably more than the present market price. Stocks which ' fulfill such requirements may be immune from stock market inking spells. (3) MERCHANDISE BTOCKSi Visit the variety chain stores in your city. Pick out the two or three which you like the best Ask your local banker which of these have their stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Buy the one which yields you the most annual income. (4) FIRE INSURANCE STOCKS! Look at your insur ance policies and buy the stock of the company which has been doing business the longest'num- . ber of years. I also like good casualty stocks. Both types combine ownership of a business and participation in a large list of good Investments. I BANK STOCKS! Buy either the stock of the local bank with which you deal or else buy the stock of the New York City bank which your lo cal bank uses as a correspond ent. Besides earning money on eervlces rendered, most banks now earn on large Government bond holdings. (6) BUILDING BTOCKSi These should be good although they already are selling1 rather high due to the big building 'boom expected after the war. Choose one manufacturing building materials and one mak ing house furnishings. 1 also i, .... v t'tii;: j-jg 11 '.

(7) CHEMICAL BTOCKSi These also are selling pretty high now; but we are going in to a chemical age and many miracles are ahead of us. For Instance Dow Chemical is mak ing products from sea-waterl Remember that while our agri cultural soils are getting poorer every year, the ocean is con stantly getting richer in chem icals and minerals. (8) TRANSPORTA TION BTOCKSi Probably everyone should own a little stock of some well established automo bile company. Certainly, these should be safer to hold than most railroad stocks. I think nearly all railroads will suffer in the postwar period. Airplane transportation stocks are now fairly high. . (9) MINING BTOCKSi This may not be the time to buy any mining stocks; but if so. one should buy the stock of a com pany which is also well estab lished in the fabricating end. (10) FOOD STOCKS! This group Includes the baking com panies, canning companies and other food processing com panies. Personally, I would rather buy the stock of some good grocery chain than tie my self down to any one of the man ufacturers. If, however, you want a strictly "food stock". I suppose one having both "neces sity" and "luxury" foods would be my choice. Please remember I give the above simply as illustrations there are other good groups and ideas which I have not includ ed. In this great country there are many good companies. But whatever you buydiversify! Water Pact Hat Committee Okeh Washington, Feb. S3 (U.R) The Senate Foreign Relations Committee today approved the disputed U. 8. Mexican water treaty by a vote of 18 to 4. Ben. Hiram Johnson, R., Calif., who led the opposition to the treaty during the weeks of hear ings, was downcast. He said he didn't think the Senate would reject It. The treaty would apportion waters of the Colorado and Rio Grande rivers between this country and Mexico. Churchill Observe Customs In Arabia Cairo, Feb. 23 (U.R) Prime Minister Churchill gave way to Arabian customs during his con ference with middle eastern rulers. - Not once did he smoke his traditional cigar at the meetings, And his gesture did not go un noticed. Smoking Is considered sinful In the Arabian peninsula and King Ibn Sauc" was said to have greatly appreciated Churchill's tactfullness.
