We actually have over 100 men on the pay roll at the present time and improve ment work is continuing every day and will continue. “So far as advertising is con cerned, we have used the mediums and the amount of space that have beet appeared to us to answer our legitimate purposes. Our percentage of advertising cost to the gross amount of sales is about 2Vi per cent, which is lower than that of any other company that has ever advertised on a large scale in the history of the city of Portland. “There are about 1500 purchasers of Bayocean property, and as near as we can ascertain, less than one per cent appear to be dissatisfied. Their principal grievance seems to hinge upon a difference of opinion as to how the property should have been handled. The others are en tirely satisfied and those who have visited Bayocean are its most en- thusiastic friends. “I am satisfied that an investiga tion of the affairs of this company will prove a greater credit than dis credit to its management and I am frank to confess that I welcome the opportunity of presenting to the courts of this state a careful analy sis of our books.”—Oregonian.
