credited with having bought greater
percentage of stock per individual
than any other Goodyear plant. APP
proximately $4,000 worth of stock
was sold. Very little of this money
had been deposited in bonds, but was
taken from stockings and various 9th
er hiding places. One man subscribed
for SO shares and paid in cash $4,000.

5000 each were reported. Because OF
the short space of time allotted to the
sale. many who would, could not take
advantage of the opportunity offered
because money was deposited IN as
tant banks or otherwise invested.
