THE OMAHA BEE: TUESDAY. JULY 18. 1U22.
American Labor
Party Launched
at New York City
Organization It Designed to
Supplant the Socialist and
Farmer Factions With
in Next Few Yean.
New York, July 17. The American
labor parly, patterned after the labor
party o( Great Britain, was launched
Sunday by the socialists, farmer
laborites and trades unionist in con
vention at Beethoven hall.
Immediately after the new party
tui started off with a whoop, a
trades union delegate wlio opposed
the amendment, demanded that the
liiction of its repeal be submitted
In a referendum.
This threw the leaders of the re
cently formed labor party into a panic.
They feared the loss of the votes that
swelled the 69.908 total cast for the
farmer-labor ticket two years a (to in
the "dry" sections.
Happy Solution Found.
A happy way out of the dilemma
was found when one of the intellect
uals offered a substitute providing
that all amendments to the constitu
tion be submitted to a referendum.
This, of course, will not affect any
existing amendments, but the "wet"
delegate was not aware of what was
being done, for he led in the demands
for the innocuous substitute.
''It's nothing but a party of op
portunities," said a left wing social
ist, who, witl his fellows has been
ostracised by the convention.
To Supplant Socialists.
The new party will not function as
an independent political group this
year, its organizers announced, but
it will supplant the socialist and
farmer-labor parties within the next
year or two. The farmer-labor party
is comparatively new. It nominated
its first state ticket two years ago,
with Dudley Field Malone at its
head. There is little left of the old
organization.
A few years ago the socialists
elected 10 of the 62 assemblymen
from this city. Last year they elect
ed but' three.

THE NATIONAL CITY BANK OF NEW YORK, Trustee
Mr. J. M. Hood, Jr., President of the Company,
follows:
The Crown Cork and Seal Company has been
in successful operation for over thirty years.
Its principal product is the Crown cork, which,
is the most economical bottle stopping device
produced and for which there is no com
parable substitute. The Company also manu
factures bottle filling and crowning machines,
cork specialties and lithographed metal
signs.
The Company occupies a commanding posi
tion in the trade, being the largest manufac
turer of Crown corks and supplying consid
erably over half of the total business done
in this line. The Company's operations are
world-wide, with plants in Baltimore, Toron
to, Mexico' City, London, Paris, Yokohama,
Rio de Janeiro, Lisbon (Portugal) and Se
ville (Spain).
The Company's net profits for the past
thirty years, after deducting interest, taxes
and all other charges, have averaged
$788,377. During the ten years ended De
cember 31, 1921, the average annual net
income available for interest and Federal
taxes was $1,322,164, or Sy2 times the an
nual interest charges on this issue, its only
outstanding funded debt.
In 1920, the Company showed net income of
$1,504,828, but in 1921, the decline in sales
together with substantial inventory adjust
ments resulted in a net loss for that year of
$1,577,144 before interest. Due to curtailed
operation for the purpose of liquidating in-
has summarized his letter regarding this issue as
ventory, a further loss has been incurred in
the current year, but applying the contin
gency reserve which the Company has set
up on its balance sheet it is expected that
the operations for the balance of the year
will show a profit.
The First Mortgage Bonds will be secured,
in the opinion of counsel, by a direct closed
first mortgage on all the real estate and fixed
assets of The Crown Cork and Seal Company
(as defined in the Mortgage) and further
by the pledge of all of thecapital stocks and
other securities of subsidiaries, owned by the
Company.
The Mortgage will provide for a Minimum
Sinking Fund sufficient to retire $2,000,000
face value of Bonds by maturity, and will
also provide an Additional Sinking Fund
based on dividend payments.
The Company will covenant not to declare
or pay any cash dividends on its capital stock
except out of income' subsequent to August
1, 1922, and then only if upon completion of
such dividend payment net current assets
shall equal at least 125 of the Bonds out
standing. After giving effect to the financing and also
deducting all liabilities other than funded
debt, the net tangible assets amount to $15,
139,660 or more than 3 times the amount of
the ifcsue. The net current assets alone are
$6,974,475.
Application will be made to list these Bonds on the Nev York Slock Exchange
Price 96 and interest, to yield over 6.35
Bends are offered when, as and if issued end receired by us, subject to the approval
of our counsel as to legal proceedings.
