Where VIII the North Western
Get the SIS in Cash?

If all Rock Island stockholders accepted the North Western
offer of SIS in cash for each share Of Rock Island the cash
required would be SIS million AS the North Westerns
application shows on December 3d. 1862 its working capital
was only 907 This does not take into account long
term debt due within year, which according the year
end financial statement, amounted to SASS, 10l.
The $40 million windfal in the form of a federal income
tax refund announced recently by the North Western will
not be sufficient to the requirements of its bonds and
preferred stock The homecoming nature of such income
should be carefully considered any appraisal of the longer
term prospects for the Rock Island its stockholders accept

The UP Merger Better Co Service Economy

HUG " ucISoS 40 OoCCoS JOS OSUCVI
Union Pacifc-Rock Island merger would bring growth
not shrnkage and retreat
Rock Island stockholders would get ownership interest
In these important benefits:
a. long and successful earnings and dividend record
The Union Pacific has paid dividends for g consecu-
tive years.
b. Extensive mineral and the cash to develop
them.
The UP earned $24 million last year from oil and gas
and mineral operations and in addition, has coal, iron
ore, potash, titanium beryllum, and vanadum prop
critics.
g A highly efficient transportation plant
Last year the UP made over $46 million on its railway
operations.
Under the Union Pacific merger proposal major savings
would come from building efficient overall operation,
and from the low cost simplicity Of single line service between
Chicago Peoria and St. Louis and Pacific Coast points Only
limited amount Of overlapping duplicate facilities would
be involved

HOtO You'd the North Western
Get the Money to Pay the Interest?

The bonds would pay interest only earned ANY in
tereSt would have to come primarily from dividends the
Rock Island shares exchanged for the North Western package
In other words for interest the bonds the Rock Island
shareholders would be forced depend dividends which
they already entitled The quarterly dividend rate of the
Rock Island cut to Is per share last year, and the
Rock Island hasn't paid annual dividend high enough to
cover the interest on the proposed bonds since 1857
dividends the Rock Island stock insufficient to
cover interest the bonds then interest supposedly
would have to come from available net income of the North
Western Such income not available In fact holders of
the bonds would have wait in line behind other security
holders to whom the North Western money already.
The North Western offer also puts double claim on Rock
Island dividends If the North Western offer accepted
any Rock Island dividends would supposedly to pay inter-
est the socaled $50 bonds But any such dividends
would also be income to the North Western and under the
terms of North Westerns mortgages would have to be made
available pay interest and sinking funds the North West
ems first mortgage bonds and second mortgage income bonds
This would necessarily serious conflict of interest be-
tween North Western and Rock Island.

By contrast the Chicago and North Western Railway in its
June d offer to control the Rock Island estimates that at
least 900 positions would be eliminated from the overhead
departments alone resulting in annual payroll CUTS including
fringe benefits, of nearly So million.
The North Western also proposes to consolidate lines,
tracks, freight train services and equipment and repair fac
ties in five states The North Western did not say how many
jobs would be eliminated in these consultations but did
estimate that annual savings including fringe benefits would
exceed Sc million.
The UP would bring urgently needed capital to invest in
improving the Rock Islands facilities Since World War
Union Pacific has spent ST billion capital Improvements
to modenize its facilities and provide superior service The
UP pledges that when its merger with Rock Island occurs it
will extend this capital expenditure program to Rock Island
properties upgradng rolling stock equipment tracks and
bridges 1t will modrnze the Rock Islands operations through
centralized traffic CONTROL microwave and other communca
tons projects. H.,
Competition with trucks and ailineS will be strengthened
Shippers and communities served by the Rock Island and
Union Pacific will benefit from better efficient service
