GUARANTY TRUST COMPANY OF NEW YORK, Trustee A letter from Mr. John D. Ryan, Chairmin of the Board, is summarized as follows: These Bonds are direct obligations of the Ana conda Copper Mining Company and are secured by pledge with the Trustee of stocks of constitu ent companies valued in excess of $100,000,000. The Secured Gold Bonds (Series A and B) con stitute the only funded debt of the Company. The Anaconda Copper Mining Company is the largest producer of copper in the world and its mines are located in one of the greatest known mineral belts, the Butte District in Montana. During the past 37 years the group of mines now owned by the Company has produced and is now producing more copper and more silver than arty other district in the world. During the period from January 1, 1913, to De cember 31, 1919, the Company and its constituent companies earned, after paying interest and all taxes, but before depreciation charges, an annual average of more than $24,500,000 approximately 50 of the entire issue of these bonds. During the last ten and one-half years the Com pany has paid dividends aggregating more than $125,000,000. The Company covenants, among other things, in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agree ment, substantially as follows : It will not mortgage of pledge any of its fixed assets without providing prior security for the Bonds and for their payment in priority to all other obligations secured by such mortgage or pledge, and will not permit con stituent companies to mortgage or pledge their fixed assets unless the obligations secured thereby (other t..an those issued In renewal of existing obligation) are pledged under the Trust Agreement The earned surplus of the Company (including any amount which may have been employed in the payment of any future stock dividend) shall never be reduced to an amount less than the amount of the outstanding Bonds. The Anaconda Copper Mining Company has out standing $116,562,500 capital stock, which, at recent market quotations, indicates an equity of over $120,000,000 behind these Bonds.
