State Railroads Unprofitable in Norway
Norway's government railways show poor finances with three of eleven lines paying no dividend. Among the eight profitable roads, last year’s dividends ranged from .7 to 2.7 percent. Nonpaying lines were Bergerl-Vos, Stavanger-Egersund, and Grundseth-Aamodt, all failing to dividend for the prior year as well. Decorated Americana Have Company. Germany teems with titles as Grand Duke of Hess and Bavaria rulers grant odd honors, including a court marbleist and a royal sewer-maker. The print suggests editorials on these decorations boosting Col Partridge's status.
