EmersonDrugRejects
Bristol meyers Offer
BY the Assoeioisd Press

BALTIMORE, Feb. 10.-Em-
erson Drug Co. announced yes
terday majority stockholders
have rejected an offer Of Bris-
tol-Meyers for 81 per cent of
Emerson's common stock.
Francis H. McAdoo, executive
vice president Of Emerson, in a
letter to stockholders, said the
Emerson family group which
holds the largest number of
shares does not intend to accept
the Bristol Meyers offer of SIG
per share for 81 per cent of the
stock.
The decision Of these stock
holders was based primarily on
the favorable earnings trend of
the company, Mr.. McAdoo said.
Unaudited figures show earnings
per share of $1.47 for 1854, up
from $1.09 in 1858.
He added that Emerson Drug
has shown a profit in each year
since 1883 and that recent boil
stering of the management group
has considerably strengthened
the competitive position of EN-
erson and will improve the in
vestment stature Of the COM
pany."
1T would be a shame to see
a company which has turned the
corner absorbed in a large COM
pany where the earnings benefit
would be lost to our present
stockholders" the announcement
added.
