Baker, former head ol the tree, experts of the National Park Burial Report of Oakridge Cemetery From March 16, 1937 To March 21, 1938 There is no truth in the statement that the recapitalization of the Marshall Furnace Co. means that, stock is to be sold at this time, if the stockholders approve the proposed recapitalization. The proposed change in the capital structure will merely simplify it. Class A stockholders will receive nine shares of new common stock in exchange for one share of class A stock and ck.ss shareholders will exchange for the new common, 1 share for share. There was no statement in The Evening Chronicle that stock was to be sold at this time and so far as this newspaper knows there is no expectation of selling any stock in the near future, at least.

There are now outstanding 37,797 shares of class A stock and these shares would take over 340,173 shares of the new common. There are outstanding 36,506 shares of class stock. That would account for 376.679 shares of the new common. The balance would be held as treasury stock and issued and sold, when, as and if more capital should be needed.
