First. We have approximately 60,000 stockholders. The market value of the securities that these stockholders hold at the present time exceeds $2,000,000,000 a very tidy sum.

In 1926 these stockholders received, in dividend disbursement, an amount in excess of $100,000,000. The purchasing power of this $100,000,000 has an important influence on our general business situation. (en) |
