company's position in the sales of razors and razor b.ades.
"During 1947, the company lost approximately $7,000.000, before the

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,

in

in part, the company's construction
program.
This program, is presently authorized for the years 1946 to
1951, inclusive, involves approximately $254,800,000 of gross additions
to electric plant, of which $147,202,000 had been
made by the end
of 1948
(retirements during the same period aggregated $29,966,000),

Additional
