lU1Ur. ,1 I i agree that high-grade common stocks are best. But not all investors should approach common stocks in the same manner. "You should have three reference points in buying stocks," says one investment counselor, "growth, income, and safety." Growth stocks in relatively new, vigorous companies are of primary interest to people who, because of substantial earnings, are not dependent on income from investments and are willing to take the risk involved in waiting for securities to increase greatly in value. Income stocks in longer-established companies earning large profits and paying large dividends are more suitable for the.

investor looking for a present steady income with little concern about growth possibilities. Safety stocks are for those who depend on security holdings for some specific future income. There are a number of corporations with relatively small growth potential, paying fairly modest dividends, that are almost as strong as the Rock of Gibraltar. Behind every hesitation to put money to work in the stock market is the oft-repeated question "Are stocks a safe investment for our savings?" The following figures may clarify this question for you: About 9 out of 10 of the common stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange paid cash dividends last year. A composite of these dividend-paying stocks shows that they have paid dividends an average of 23 consecutive years at an average rate of 4.3 percent.

For the past 60 years, stock prices have advanced an average of about 3.2 percent a year (but this upward trend has been characterized by violent fluctuations!) Thirty-two percent of those who invest in stocks and there are more than 7'2 million of them make less than $5,000 a year and 76 percent earn less than $10,000. A Brookings Institution survey shows these investors are members of every profession and occupation, and are divided almost equally between men and women.
