Women Outnumber Men As
Corporation Shareholders
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
Unitad Press Correspondent
New York (U.PJ Women
outnumber men as shareholders
of publicly-held corporations lor
the first time.
Statisticians are totaling
new record of just what happens
to family savings handled by
women; to stocks inherited by
widows and to the investing pol
icies of working girls.
The census of shareowners is
the project of the New York
Stock Exchange. Still mcom
plete, the census analysis al
ready reveals the steady pro
gress women have, made as in
vestors in American business in
past four year.
Ratio Reversed
Men barely outnumbered the
women in a similar survey made
four years ago by the Brookings
institution. Then, 49.8 per cent
of the shareowners were wom
en. Now the estimate is 52 per
cent
It is canny savings, husbandly
generosity or inheritance that
accounts for the added thousands
of female names on stock certif
icates. According to the composite
picture of the "average wom
an investor, men get most of the
credit for women's investment
progress.
"She is most frequently
housewife." Keith Funston, pres
ident of the New York Stock
Exchange, explained in describ
ing the typical woman investor.
"She admits to having celebrat
ed her 48th birthday. Her fam
ily income averages S6000 a
1 'vear and she owns shares in
bout four different companies.
There is no proof yet that
women actually own more
if.-
NEW not a diet, weight-loss system
This is the new, pleasant way to
reduce the size of your waist.
This is the famous, tested and
proved Relax-A-cizor. You use it
while you REST. Use it while
you sit watching television or
while you read in bed.
You exert no effort. Yet, your
waist and abdominal muscles ex
ercise vigorously. This active
NO-EFFORT exercise tightens
bulging abdominal muscles and
ttims your waist fast!
Now you can get rid of those
extra Inches quickly and with
no effort and no feeling of
fatigue.
This is the normal, healthy
wav to pull in inches. It is com
pletely safe. No diet is required.
This is NOT a vibrator it is real
exercise.
Women Say: "Four inches
removed from abdomen, 3 from
hies." M.F.
"3" from hips." M.A.
"First time since I've had my
3 children my tummy is
flat." E.S.
"Dress size was 18,
now 12." CP.
Your may lose less ... or more.
The Relax-A-cizor is' NOT a
diet, weight-loss method. It is a
pleasant method of NO EFFORT
exercise. If you find dieting dif
ficult, this is the method for you
it will exercise and tighten
your abdominal muscles even
of you don't lose a pound of
weight!
If you are overweight and pre
fer to diet, you may. We fur
nish, at no extra charge, a Cal
oric Intake Guide to help you
lose weight.
Remember this important fact:
You will reduce the size of your
waist and abdomen MORE when
you use Reax-A-cizor with your
diet, than when you use diet
alone. Diet does not exercise and
tighten muscles Relax-A-cizor
does. When you combine Relax-A-cizor
with your weight-loss
program you enjoy truly dra
matic FAST results.

shares in public companies than
men do. Usually men investors
hold the larger blocks of stock,
even though women actually out
number them among the individ
ual stockholders.
Exerting Real Control
Frank observers of investing
habits also admit that many of
the approximately four million
women who own the stocks have
little idea of what investments
actually are in their names. '
"We're improving on that," a
member of the Federation of
Women Shareholders said. "A
great many women who were
left by their husbands didn't pay
any attention to them unless
the market started to go down.
Then they would begin asking
if they should sell or buy. Now
we find more women exerting
real control over the stocks they
have."
The federation also is working
to bring down the average age
of the average female stockhold
er. The organization, a non-profit
group which provides informa
tion for women interested in in
vestments, feels more young
working girls should save their
pennies to invest in American
business.

Woman
Reducing
Waist
Remember, too. please: Diet is
not required. The Relax-A-cizor
ALONE (without diet) reduces
inches through the exercise and
tightening of the muscles that
support and "hold-in" your ab-
aomen.
Do not confuse Relax-A-cizor
(pictured above) with bicycles,
vibrating tables, heat or masage.
It is completely different. It is
the only way we know of to
actually EXERCISE the muscles
of your abdomen while you
H.st at nome. No effort is re
quired. You use it while you
read, rest, watch television . .
even while you sleep! And it re
duces inches . . . and does the
job in a hurry.
The new 1955 Relax-A-cizor is
simple to use. You clip the belt
(shown above) around your
waist in 10 seconds. Turn a dial.
Relax for 30 minutes. That's all
Often dramatic results are seen

It is a PLEASANT experience:
you will enjoy . . . and look for
