SPRING SONG OF THE CARDINAL

From your bright throbbing throat
Each iubilant whetted note
Sounds new and clear;
Still on the lingering snow
Your wings make flaming show,
But the springing year
Quickens from winter rest
Song in your scarlet breast,
And the barren tree
Stirs in its clinging dream
Hearing of springs full theme
This first sweet key.

Total dividends for the yea,
amounting to SIS per share" he
added, "are equivalent to return

Presents Plan 10
Increase Capital
Johnson Asks Holders
To Meet December n
For Action
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-In an ef-
fort to obtain new working capital
Philip G. Johnson, president of the
Boeing Airplane Co., yesterday pre-
sented to stockholders a plan for
increasing the capitalization of the
company.
He asked them to meet December
% in Seattle to authorize an in
! crease in the number of capital
shares to 1,250,000 of S5 par value
from the present 100000.
johnson said the company's back
log of untitled orders had increased
from S12 308,112 on September l to
$27 ,954175 on September 30, and
that money was needed for new ma
chinery, equipment and plant ex-
pansion.

| ance of the shares, if approved by
stockholders, had not yet been de-
clded upon, but the directors have
under consideration an offer to
stockholders of rights to subscribe

McKesson & Robbins
Trustee Calls for
Proposals
WurduII Asks Plans
Be Offered Before
Jonuory IS
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. pa request
for suggestions as to how to reor-
ganize McKesson & Robbins, Inc,
was sent to creditors and stock
holders of the big drug and liquor
house yesterday by William j. War;
dali, trustee of the company. He
asked that such plans be sent him
on or before next January Is.
The reorganization will be the
first of any large corporation under
chapter 10 of the Bankruptcy Act,
which went into effect last year, just
two months before the Coster-
Musica scandal revelations which
caused the affairs of McKesson &
Robbins to be put into trusteeship.
In his notice to creditors, Wardall
stated that the company's book in
f1ation of assets" at the end of 1888
was $21,025, ,658, "of which approx
mately $2,870.000 was misappropri-
ated and the balance represented by
book entries of fictitious assets
which never existed"
Wardall asserted that reorganiza-
ton of the company is essential be-
cause SIS .725 900 in debentures, now
due and owing, would otherwise
leave the company unable to dis
charge this and other Indebtedness.
The damage or rescission claims
by stockholders ." continued
Wardall, have not been adjudi-
Gated. Certain claims of this nature
have been filed and others un-
doubtedly will be asserted unless this
problem can be eliminated under the
provisions of plan of reorganiza-
ton. This reason alone makes
reorganization necessary"
The trustee suggested that S7.000,-
900 was available as of September 80
for distribution to creditors as cash
on hand not needed in the normal
operation of the business" Total
cash on hand on that date, he said,
totaled S13,823.727
Wardall also suggested: The
plan should make provision for the
