Thank You A Thousand Times And ! Mean Just
 That.

I believe people like absolute frankness. You certainly have shown that you ap- preciate my taking you into my conf dence regarding the plans of the new company.
 1 want to repeat in this letter what 1 said in my first let ter, viz: all of you who invest in pre- ferred S tock, in units of five shares, will receive from the new company as an outright gift, one share of common stock, of par value $1O, and this will be done so that every one of you will be- come an actual part ner in the business.
 It has been a rule of my life to show appreciation when people d o m e a good turn. I don't believe any fellow has a right to go through life accept ing kindnesses, such as you good people of Bridgeport have shown me, without giving evidence of his gratitude.
 I am asking you to go along with me in carrying out my plans to make my business a greater success, and it is on- ly fair and right that you should be rewarded in a way to express my deep appreciation. Hence the gift of common stock which will yield you a good pTOht, after all nave been paid back the money they invest in preferred stock
 l renew my pledge that no dividends will be declared on common stock until all preferred stock has been redeemed.
