History and dividends of International Paper share valuations
Prior to World War I International Paper faced weak earnings and unpaid preferred dividends accumulating. After the war earnings surged, with 1916 22.85 percent on preferred and over 71 percent on common. 1917 over 34 percent on common. 1918 common 18.48 percent. From 1916 to 1918 the company earned about 165 percent on common stock. by 1919 an expected 100 percent. Preferred dividends were largely paid off by 1917, while the common stock gained due to strong performance and ongoing expectations of continued high earnings. The bank debt and back dividends were addressed through reorganization, boosting stock issues and reducing bonds. Common stock looks to dividend potential once floating debt is cleared.

Swiss Bond Issue Draws Gulf of Interest
A new 20 million dollar issue of 12 percent Swiss bonds has been bought by a syndicate led by Lee Higginson & Co and will be offered to the public. Swiss general debt in 1918 stood at about 285 million dollars, roughly 75 per capita, among the lowest in Europe. Swiss loans in London and the U.S. have shown little movement, but the country’s credit remains solid despite wartime neutrality costs.
