in reply to this Mr. Page has sent
to the corporation's stockholders a
personal message in which he of-
fers $500 to any "individual. in-
stitution. newspaper or organization"
that can prove that the company is
not a legitimate. operative concern
and properly managed. His only con-
diilon is that it such "individual. in-
stitution. newspaper or organization"
should not prove the charges made
then the investigator must pay $500
