"During 1947, the company lost approximately $7,000.000, before the benefit of a tax carry-back. In the year 1948, acocrding to the company s statement, it made approximately $1,200,000. . The fact is, however, that while the razor end of the business made over $4,000,000, the pen and pencil division of the business lost over $2,000,000. "It is, therefore, imperative that directors who are not .part-.of, controlled by,' or under the domination of either of the opposing factions be elected to the board of directors for the purpose of rescuing our company from its present serious predicament.'-' The committee asserts that it represents neither Martin Straus II, Chairman and founder, ncr R. Howard Webster, although Mr. Straus has indicated that lie will vote in favor of this committee's slate and has agreed to contribute to the expenses of this committee. .
