523 Dividends declared in 1924, $382,880,000 (data for 1925 not avail- able), were not as great as in 1923 but exceeded the payments of 1922. The per cent of stock paying dividends, however, was greater than in any year since 1913. The average rate on dividend yielding stock, therefore, was lower than in 1923, as was the ratio of dividends declared to all stock (Table 14).
