APPEAL TO STOCKHOLDERS
Iperial, Cal, Nav "a 1921

To the Stockholders of Water Com.
pany No. 1: Permit me to call your
attention to the proposed amendment
to the bylaws adjusting the stock to
the land at four shares for five acres
OF land. Few of the stockholders real
ize the problems that confront the di-
rectOrs, caused by insufficient stock,
for one share per acre. All of the
stock is now located upon land: there
can be no stock bought or sold unless
the land now stocked is deprived of
stock and, consequently, its right to
water; there are 10000 more acres of
lrrlgable land that can now be served
with water than stock to enable the
company to serve it. The owners of
this land are entitled to one or two
propositions: that they be given a
chance to get stock, or that their lands
be let out of the boundaries of No. l.
Both OF these propositions are sub
mltted to you, and you personally have
neglected to act on either You don't
have to vote both of the propositions
as submitted, but upon what ground
can you refuse to vote one or the
other?
