Sees Improvement for 1962
Reporting increased earnings for 1961 and an improving outlook for 1962, Julien R. Steelman, Chairman of the Board and President of Koehring Company, told stockholders in the Company's annual report that dividend payments commensurate with earnings are expected to be resumed in 1962. Dividends totaling 90c were paid for the two-year period of 1960-1961 but payments were omitted the last half of the year.

Steelman cited an increase in construction machinery orders in the closing months of 1961 and the rising level of construction activity predicted for 1962 as reasons for the improved outlook. He said that industry wide shipments of power cranes and shovels had declined since 1956, carrying machine sales below normal replacement needs, but that the low point now appears to have been passed.

Other reinforcing may be heavier but, Grade for Grade and dollar for dollar, WAL-LOK puts more steel IN THE MORTAR where it counts-19.2% more than competitive products. SUPERSTANDARD Grade has 8 ga. Siderods rather than the 9 ga. used by others and it's the Siderods that end up in the mortar. Ladder type construction means no wasted steel to get in the way of insulation, pipe or conduit in the walls No extra freight on steel that serves no useful purpose.

PLUS, these no extra cost features-WAL-LOK is Double Deformed for maximum bondage WAL-LOK's galvanized Crossrods project for additional bond. Crossrods serve as bolsters or bar chairs to hold WAL-LOK up for complete embedment in the mortar.
