Business—Company, incorporated in Illinois April 13,"'
1915, is believed by its management to be the largest manufacturer f
of upholstered
living room furniture in the United States.
It also "
normally produces dual sleeeping equipment, bedroom furniture, dining v
room furniture and "push back" theater chairs.
During the war years •
it has devoted a substantial part of its facilities to the production of
military goods and other items indirectly used in the war effort, and
there has been some curtailment of its ordinary activities.
Company :
was
organized as a result of the consolidation of four furniture,
manufacturing
companies which were under common control, the.
oldest
of
them, Naperville Lounge Co., having been established in „
1893 with an original Investment of $6,000.
Net worth of approx¬
imately $9,189,000 as represented by capital and surplus shown in
the consolidated balance sheet.of April 22, 1945, has resulted primarily

Total shipments
for the year exceeded $22,000,000.
Employees currently number about

of the company are distributed principally

Approximately 9.87% of total consolidated sales of regular products in
1944 (not including war materials) represented sales to mail order
houses.
A relatively
