Property This Corporation owns the entire capital stock of Chicago Motor
bU8 Company, successfully operating: SO'double-deck buses on the
North Side of Chicago, which in 1918 covered 1,41 1,789 miles, carrying 4,571.
374 passengers.
Additional From the proceeds of this issue, it is the intention of the manage
ment immediately to increase equipment to I 30 buses, install a
new service on the South Side and give Chicago a thoroughly
Equipment
modern and satisfactory Motor Bus System
Arrangements are also under way to establish Motor Bus Systems in St. Louis
and Newark, connecting the business sections with the residential districts. Other
cities have given assurances of hearty support to similar plans as soon as they
can be perfected.
Earnings The Corporation will have in operation a minuimum of 250 buses
in the three cities mentioned as soon as deliveries can be obtained.
The earnings per bus per annum are conservatively estimated at $9,300 which indi
cate net earnings from operation of approximately $2,325,000. Exclusive license
rights have been acquired by the Corporation to a new "stepless" Motor Bus with
enclosed stairway to the upper deck. This upper deck is covered, permitting the
operation of the bus to its full capacity regardless of weather. This is swung so
low that it will pass under trolley wires and low bridges with entire safety to pas
sengers. Hie exceptional future for a system of modern motor buses in leading cities
cannot be over-emphasized. Motor bus organizations in London, Paris, Chicago
and New York are enjpying remarkable prosperity. Buses are becoming increas
ingly popular and profitable as a meafis of passenger transportation.
We advise the purchase of this stock. Application will shortly be made to
Ual il on the New York.Curb and other markets. Subscriptions will be erttered and
orders executed as received, subject to allotment.

l'lic information tcaardiiifj this issue of Piefeireil block nd the business of the
corporation is tdlven from a letter of Clement Stutlebakcr, President of the St. Louis
Lokc 6w. Chemical Company, from which we summarize as follows:
The proceeds are to be used in the erection of one 500-ton BlaV
Furnace and 80 Roberts By-product Coke Ovens, at Granite City, f 1. V
The Roberts By-Product Coke Ovens will produce metallurgical
coke from nearby Illinois and Indiana coals. A portion of this coke will be
used in the Company's blast furnace to manufacture iron; the balance will
be sold on the open market.
The blast furnace will produce pig .ron using ore from tlhc Lake
region and elsewhere.
a
The National Enameling and Stamping Company has contracted to
take the major portion of the output of the plant for use in its Granite City
Steel Works. There is also an existing general market for the products
of this plant which should net the Company large profits.
The Company has a broad license for the construction and operation'Qf
By-Product Coke Ovens under the Roberts Patents, owned by the AmencanV
Coke and Chemical Company. 'j
This is the only Coke Oven which has successfully produced metallur-
gical coke on a commercial scale from the so-called non-coking coals of the'
Illinois and Indiana fields.
Ample provision has been made in the charter of the Company for the
protection of the Preferred stock.
