A portion of the required

shares of the company's authorized but unissued '
stock at $1 per share. . These warrants will initially
be in registered form but will be exchangeable for warrants in bearer
form at any time after Jan. 1, 1950 and prior to Jan. 1, 1954.
,
All of
the warrants will
expre on Dec. 31,
1953: unless exercised
prior thereto.
The underwriters .will leceive no other compensation
but the company will assume and pay the expenses incurred, in con¬
nection with the distribution of the 295,000 shares of common stock.
The funds received by the company from the issuance and sale of
the new shares will be used for general corporate purposes and they ;
may
be applied,
as required,
to the payment or reducton of the
company's outstanding indebtedness.
However, since it is important
that as large a
portion as possible of these funds be retained and
used as working capital, directors arranged for deferred payment of '
the major part of the company's indebtedness.
This will permit deb!,
payment to be made for the most part out of inventory liquidation
and profits from future operations.

Earnings of $2.72 per share for the current 12-month period evidence
Improvement over-the $2.51 per share earned for the 12-month period
ended June 30, 1948. This is largely due to unusually heavy shipments
in September which reflect some buying in anticipation of the October
price advances.
'
''While for the first eight months of 1948 glass container industry
shipments have been some 14% less than in the corresponding period
in 1947, it now appears that shipments for the year will total between
95 to 100 million gross," W. E. Levis, Chairman, said.
"This volume
of business of the glass container industry represents approximately
a
106% increase over the average shipments for the five prewar years,

"In
