tice in its advertisement of the close
of the present sale of its preferred
stock. This stock was first offered to
the Company's customers and other

that time it has become an immense,

for this stock has been such that the
Company's financial requirements
have been met for some months to
come.
The Ohio Power Company now has
over 1000 employees, customers and
others living in the territory served
by it who have invested in its pre-
ferred stock and after the conclusion
of the present sale no preferred stock
will be available until such time as
additional funds are needed to finance
