Makes Big Profits In Soviet Concession
Moscow reports a 120 percent annual net return on a 2,000,000 ruble capital for the A. Hammer pencil and pen concession. The mixed Soviet venture earned 2,500,000 rubles in the year ending October 1, 1927, after tax profits, with 24 percent of output exported to England and a $600,000 gold net to Hammer. The balance sheet, audited by the Finance ministry, notes half the capital supplied by the Soviets and profits distributed after a 7 percent tax.
