Mr. Adam ZOLIEK, Chief Accountant, PRINCIPAL

INVESTENTS, 133 Richmond

Street, "., Toronto, Ontario

Informed me

that he has been acquainted with PULLMAN In

a business-like manner from 1955 to 1959. "Due to his

keen interest in women, I doubt the runour that he'is

married". ZOLIEK stated that there is no reason why his

honesty or integrity may be doubted. PULLMAN 1s associated

with PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS as a result of being a share-

holder of three buildings with this Company. The first

building is located at 2747 Bloor Street, W., Toronto.

The known shareholders of this building are as follows;

PRINCIPAL INVESTHENTS -1/3, John PULIMAN -1/6, L. CHESLER

1/6, Ann COWAN (nee PULLMAN)-1/6 and CHILLOW - 1/3. It

1s belleved that CHILLOW is a Trust Fund for John PULLMAN'S

nephews and was originally owned by John PULLMAN. The

cheques for CHILLOW are forwarded to the Canada Trust

Building, 903, c/o henry JUFFY, Windsor, Ont. An average

of $1,000 per month is received by PULLMAN as a result of

the shares owned in this building. He is also 1/4 share-

holder of STRADBROOKE ARCADE LTD., 135 Yonge St. Toronto

and has an annual income from this building of $7,500.

Other shareholders are PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS 1/2 , and

COWAN (brother-in-law) 1/4. It was also established that

he is 1/3 owner of BEXLEY

COMPANY LTD., Toronto and is

receiving an annual income from this source of $5,000

COWAN (brother-in-law) and PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS are

equal shareholders in investment. The mortgage which

is held by the aforementioned shareholders in the three

buildings would be approximately $200,000. At this point,

ZOLIEK Informed me that PULLMAN's portion of the above

revenue which is payable by cheque is mailed to A.C.

COWAN (brother-in-law). In view of the discreet inqui-

ries recommended in this case, I was unable to establish

whether or not the above cheques are forwarded to

PULLMAN. ZOLIEK confirmed the fact that A.C. COWAN 1s

In the Insurance Business and 1s quite wealthy. It was

noted that PULLMAN was previously employed by COWAN

and COLLINS INSURANCE BROKER which at that time was

situated at 133 Richmond St., W., Toronto, Ont. During

this acquaintance I was informed

that PULLMAN also

operated the THEATRE on Centre Island, Toronto in 1954.

As a result of the expropriation of this THEATRE, no

further details were available.

DolId: 32331175

Upon perusing the financial records at DUN &

BRADSTREET, 84 Carlton St., Toronto, It was established

that as of 22 NO

62, PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS.I

Worth was $20,000,000

From 28 DEC 62 until 21 JAN. 63

six Writs of foreclosure and balance of accounts totalling

$536,090 were Issued against PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS. There

records did not indicate whether or not these liens were

settled. However, it would appear that PRINCIPAL INVEST-

MENTS are solvent and financially stable.
