St Paul and Pacific Extension Dividend Prospects
The article analyzes the St Paul system long tied to Standard Oil, its growth from 1400 miles to about 7500, and the shift toward transcontinental ambitions. It notes rising debt, flat earnings growth, and questions whether 7 percent dividends on common stock can be maintained amid Pacific extension costs and higher interest. It also compares Hill roads and the potential for a third Northwestern system to influence traffic and profitability.
