so psos ssSs soas. to ons gain
Increase Of X to per cent Of income oy
accepting the reorganization offer, 10 II not
ment to pay SO per bond. withdraw ths
two bonds, forego tho n per cent increase
Of yearly return and retain the orlsrns rn;,rss
prove less salabIe than the new 4o-year
prior lien bonds now offering In exchange,
but are an underlying arst mor,gaee ar,ssn ,gs are
they not? Tho lack Of tax-ezemption pro
vision in the new bonds Is also worfn G,S con, T.,
sidoring. the per cent Kansas Oity o.
Pacifc being exempt-E. c. Z.
Answer-It seems to us that the dis
advantages accruing to you from ths
retention Of your Kansas City q Pa
cifio Is outweigh the advantages. You
would by retaining your old bonds re-
tain a hrst lien on a part OF the
system. But the new bonds arc first
lien on practically the entire property
Of the company, subject to certain
small prior liens, which are not large
enough to be Of Importance AS to the
income tax, the Kansas City Pacific
as are not tax exempt. The company
pays the normal Federal income tax up
to 2 per cent thereby relieving you OF
the payment Of the sum Of eight sents
a year on the income from each $1,000
of bonds. BY accepting the reorganl-
zaton plan you would receive an addl-
tional income OF IS per year on each
( 900 of the old bonds owned, less the
2 per cent normal tax, which would
amount to 45 cents a year. In other
words, anet gain of s455 a year in in
come would accrue to you by the ex.
change, and we think that you would
possess an investment just as safe for
all practical purposes as that you now
have with the additional advantage Of
greater marketability
