The transfers of ownership
seem confusing. U. s. Wolfson
Bros. Corp. once was the largest
single stockholder of Capital
Transit. but its liquidation in
July 20. 1858, was recorded when
its shares were disposed of at
least partially through distri-

time Sam Wolfson received di-
rect ownership in 61,271 of its
transit shares.

The Nathan Wolfson Trust

The new scale, according to

Washington transit operators

|WoIfsonsA Add
10 Holdings Of
ICTC Stocks
By DONALD B. HApLEY

The first change In direct and
indirect holdings Of officers and
directors of Capital Transit Co.
this year was recorded todsy at
Ithe Securities & Exchange Com
mission.
/ The change was not large and
the only officers and directors
involved were Louis z. Wolf
son, board chairman, and his
brother, Sam w. Wolfson, who
is a director.
Both Of them recorded that
in June one of their investment
curiosities, the M. L. & 8. Corp.
was liquidated by sale or dis
tribution Of its $500 transit
shares.
From this source Louis E.
Wolfson reported an increase of
$1,736 shares which raised his
direct holdings in the company
to 41.766 from the 10000 level
where they have remained since
early 1852. He also reported that
the same liquidation resulted in
a reduction of his indirect in
terest by $500 shares.
Sam Wolfson reported his d.
rect holdings were increased
$40 shares to a total of 81, ,946
shares! while his indirect hold
ings were reduced by $500
shares.
Obviously the remaining 6,454
shares of the liquidated M. L.
& S. were either sold or distrib-
uted to other M. L. & s. owners,
who were not required to report
to the SEC because they are not
officers or directors of the tran
sit company.
Louis also reported acquisition
in June of 800 additional transit
shares for three children's trusts
of which he is co-trustee.
Sam reported acquisition OF
81 900 additional shares for three
children's trusts of which he is
trustee.
M. L. & S. Corp. was formed
at the time the Wolfson group
acquired control of the transit
company in 1948 and first owned
500 old transit shares and then
TOO. When the stock was split
these became 1890 new shares
and were increased to 3,400 in
1851 and then to 1000 and $500
in 1852. In January, 1858, the
total was raised to $500.
The June report also showed
that Adwolf Amusement Co., of
which Sam Wolfson is an officer
and a director and Louis Wolfson
lis a director. acquired 1890
transit shares. These are listed
in the indirect holdings Of both
brothers.
A review Of the SEC files to-
day disclosed no y important
change in the Wolfson holdings
listed since April, 1854, when

Found in County Jail

If you're looking for a "home
away from home" you could do
worse than the Montgomery
County Jail.
Especially if circumstances are
such that you must spend some
time as what has been called
IAN involuntary guest of the
State.
Authority for the above state
ment may be found in the 1854
report of the State Board of
Correction on the condition of
Maryland jails.
"The Montgomery County Jail
is one of the best operated in the
State and reflects great credit
on the county," the Board report
declares.
And by way of showing that
the county is eager to improve
its hospitality for those it wishes
to entertain, the report then
takes a look at the past.
For a number of years prior
to 1880" it says, there had been
complaints as to the operation
of this Jail. There was COM
plant as to food, treatment, SAM
tation and there were a number
of escapes and attempted escapes.
1t had been pointed out repeated
ly that proper administration
would be the greatest single step
the county could take. The situa-
ton today shows the wisdom of
this recommendation"
The report also noted that
segregated quarters are provided
for youthful offenders.

The State Board makes only
two recommendations with re-
spect to the jail:
That the present method of
operation continue, and that the
county begin to think in terms
of new Jail rather than expan-
sion of the present one. The
growth of the county and the
decided increase in the jail
population" were given as
reasons for this recommendation.
