In a business office, the president of an oil company talks to a resident of the local community. He is explaining to “Mr. Haysede” why his company has to issue more stock. Caption: Mr. Haysede — I see by your advertisements that you’re going to issue some more stock. What’s that for? / Oil President — What for? Why, my good fellow, we’ve earned so much money in the past six months that we’re obliged to have more stock to pay dividends on it order to get rid of it.
