Discussing the movement on foot looking toward the reduction of fares by the city transportation companies, the association members expressed themselves last night as being par- ticularly desirous of having better and more complete service given to their section of the city.

Undesirable Immigrants Not All in Human Class. Not all undesirable immigrants are human beings. ‘The most innocent- looking foreign plant or fruit may bring with it a disease or insect pest happily ynknown to this country. ‘The gypsy moth, boll weevil and Japanese beetle are a few of the for- eign trouble makers that have landed on our shores in past vear, and their descendants still cost our farmers millions of dollars in money and trouble.

You'll find that my predictions for success have been most conservative— for we have not lost a day in getting under way—and the ad- ministrative expenses are practically nil—for we have abso- lutely sound investment opportunities for all the funds avail- able. Of course, the conditions surrounding the activities of the Wardman Mortgage and Discount Corporation are quite un- usual. They naturally fit into the enormous operations of the Wardman Construction Company—and reap’their share of its successes. . _ Then, too, I have had the stock-earning power arranged to the greatest advantage of each share holder. In this first allotment you pay $125 for a share of the 89, Preferred stock, receiving with it a share of the Common stock, the minimum dividend of which is $4. Right there, you see, is a $12 return. But after the 8% Preferred and $4 Common are satisfied— then Preferred and Common stock are on the same basis— sharing equally in the division of the remaining profits—which are right now rapidly accruing. There can be no parallel for the results which the Wardman Mortgage and Discount Corporation will show—because no Mortgage Company has ever had quite the same advantages— coupled with the same economies of operation. Just come into the office—or drop us a line— if there is any question you want answered or any detail of information you’d like. It will be given without incurring any obligation whatsoever. The closer you scrutinize the wider the vista of possibilities opens—for it is an exceptionally sound investment opportunity. Stock may be purchased upon payment of $50 cash per share— the balance payable in 30 and 60 days. Sincerely, Harry Wardman 1430 K Street Phone Main 4190 Board of Directors W.
