holders.
The company has on deposit with the
state of Alabama over $4,000 for pro-

The policy of management Is along
the line of conservation and by means
of reinsurance the net liability carried
Is limited to $4,000 and more often
even half of this amount.

few weeks since 1t is stated they
found, after careful examinations. that
all matters pertaining to the company

gently handled and that the present

several occasions, however, but in ev-

These persons have attracted certain
attorneys, under promises, in some
known instances, OF fat pickings should
their even worse than spiteful efforts
and schemes succeed.
With such combination 1t has proven
an easy matter to persuade few small
ckholders-holding probably less
than 500 shares out of a total of over
Al, 900 shares-to furnish them the nee
cssary assistance of making these un-
warra anted attacks
