.TWELVE PAGES' DAILY EAST OREGONIAN. PENDLETON. OREGON. ' SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 1917. PAGE SEVEN To My Friends: In view of the numerous inquiries reaching me directly and indirectly concerning the status and prospects of the International Shipbuilders, Inc., of which I was recently elected treasurer, I have decided to make the following public statement : The company is composed of a number of capitalists and prominent business men of Washington, all widely and favorably known throughout that State. The company has no stock for sale. The capital has been fully subscribed. The purpose of the company is to build out of its own resources ships of wooden construc tion, equipped with auxiliary power of the Diesel engine character to sell at existing market prices." It will not construct ships on contract except for the United States Government m Of the apportionment of stock allotted to me, I have reserved a limited number of shares, a large part of which has been taken up by cer tain of my friends but there is yet remaining some that may be had by those desirous of se curing the same. To those who have already seen fit to join me in this enterprise, as well as others who may contemplate doing so, I can say the same fidelity I have shown in respect to other interests and responsibilities entrusted to me by the people of this community will characterize all my efforts .in the new field I am entering. I take this opportunity to express my appreci ation and thanks for the many evidences of con fidence shown in me by my friends and associ ates of over 17 years standing in Pendleton. I shall b; here until April 30th, and in the meantime will be glad to personally explain any particulars that may be desired relative to the company and the business with which I am in future to be identified.
