II has come to our knowledge that the assent Of the

ing q guaranty on the bonds to be issued under the
plan OF reorganization. and reserving 10 the Guarantor
the right. but no obligation, to purchase At q price
named, in consideration OF which lease possession
and control OF the property is to be surrendered to
the Ruarantor.
Having in mind past experience with other corpo-
rations even of the United states) az guarantors Of
our bonds, we. owning and representing a CONsID-
ERABLE amount of the bonds, have been asked by
holders Of these certificates to assist in preventing
tho contamination of the proposed arrange
ment. Believing that the true interest of
all holders lies in q sale OF their holdings for
cash, and being assured that at the present time
such q sale may be effected upon moro favorable
forms than those proposed under the guaranty
offered. we strongly advise holders of certificates not
TO assent to the proposed arrangement of lease. guar
anty and option. but to communicate with US. and
we request you to Join with us in securing . price in
cash, which we believe can be done. and upon moro
advantageous terms to tho holders than any thus far
