moral standpoint, this property

ing that which was their own. In
addition he is also requesting all
old shareholders to purchase 25
per cent of their original purchase
of the new corporation stock. He
is also offering shares to any who
I are interested. He is at the Over

lywood.
The corporation assets to be
used in the new version have been
appraised by disinterested parties
familiar with the value of moving
picture production at $128,475.59.
Other collateral is valued at $15,
000 by the corporation; $71,000 is
required to re-make this picture
into an all-talking and sound ver
