THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, April 2, 1964 BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT Bell Sells Stock By Mail MONTREAL (CP) -- When Bell Telephone Company share- holder John Doe decides to buy some of th ecurrent issue of Bell capital stock, he fills out a form afd mails it with his cheque. About two weeks later he gets his stock in the mail, It's as simple as that. But it's only that simple on the surface. Since last Decem- ber, computers have been click- ing, phones ringing, and Bell's employment office has been busy. That is when detailed plan- ning began for Bell's offering of 2,233,795 shares at $38 each to shareholders of record Marc 26. mi The issue is designed to raise approximately $85,000,000 and the company says proceeds "will be used to finance the extension and improvement of the company's services and for the general purposes of the company." Bell estimates expenditures for new telephone facilities at $231,000,000 this year and $238,- 000,000 in 1965. The behind-the-scenes prob- Orders of a downtown Montreal build- ing--had to be found. Then there was office equipment, even paper clips. Equipment obtained for handling the issue includes 717 desks and _ tables, 100 typewriters, 141 adding ma- chines and 142 filing cabinets. Printing supplies had to be procured, More than 3,000,000 circulars, forms and the like were printed and either for- warded to shareholders or kept for use within the company. It is the 13th offer made by Bell since the Second World {War, but not the highest in aumber of shares offered. In 1959, 2,606,935 shares were of- fered at $33 and with a 99.47- per-cent subscription the com- pany raised $85,568,538. The last offer was in 1962 when 2,011,654 shares were offered at $39 ard a 99.41 - per - cent subscription produced $77,990,328. _ NET EARNINGS | By THE CANADIA NPRESS |met would be governed by the the one-man commission 'a smaller pesion |would have received if they had |served until retirement age.

A defence department spokes- man said Wednesday that the plan still is in a tentative stage.
