Boston & Maine suspends semi annual preferred dividend
The Boston and Maine Railroad states the semi annual dividend of 3 on the 6 percent preferred stock will not be paid, with suspensions for both preferred and common. The move follows a directors meeting with no action on the matter, signaling a new management policy prioritizing financial and physical upbuilding over maintaining an unbroken dividend record. The preferred dividend totals $188,988 annually on $3,149,800 stock outstanding, and the stock traded at 188 while 100 had been the recent low. This marks the first break in the 6 percent preferred dividend since issue.

Goodnow Announces Dividend Freeze At American Writing Paper
William N. Goodnow, second vice president, states the AWP Co will skip the 1 percent preferred dividend due Oct 1. Six months to June 30 were poor but not disastrous, caused by higher raw material costs as rag prices rise. Prior years saw 2 percent annual payouts except 1909. Total dividends would reach 91 1/2 percent after October.

Pension plan for clergy faces costly start and annual tax
Monell Sayre of the Carnegie foundation frames a pension plan covering 5500 clergy worldwide. It would need a $7,000,000 initial fund and $500,000 yearly thereafter funded by a church tax near 6 percent of salaries. Widows, orphans, and disabled clergy would receive support. The commission criticizes several existing schemes including New York teachers and some firms, noting some pension systems act to prevent strikes.
