I Mr. and Mr. J. I. W live in Los Angeles,
California. They own their home and have four
children-two sons and two daughters. Mr.W
started working ot 17 as apprentice-mechanic
for Nash Motors. Today he owns his own
Dodgc-Plyniouth agency in Los Angeles.
2. Both ions have entered the business with
him this year. Mr. W- is also one of the cap
italists who own Union Oil Company. He has 100
shares of Union Oil stock. At the present market,
Mr. W 's stock is worth about, $2,800. He
could sell it for that much tomorrow if he chose.
3. $2800 would buy many things that the
W family could use. But they have chosen
to invest the money in oil wells, tools and refin
eries that make gasoline for other people instead
of spending it on themselves.
4 Naturally they deserve some compensation
for this. So our economic system offers them a
reward in the form of dividends -whenever the
company makes a profit. Last year Union Oil
dividends amounted to $1.00 a share-or less
than 4 on the market value of the stock.
5 So the W- family got $100 from their
holdings. This is within $37 of what the average
Union Oil stockholder got. For Union Oil is
owned not by one man or two, but by 34,114
American people like the W s. And the aver
age stockholder owns just 137 shares.
6 Naturally, some own more than this and
some less. But the largest owns only 1 of the
total. So it is not the investment of a few million
aires but the combined savings of thousands of
average American capitalists that make Union
Oil, and most American corporations, possible.
