...Theater, sill touches the tragic depths at the Hollis, and to descend a moment from the sublime, last night saw the opening of Able's Irish Rose with the "original New York company". Last but probably most important on the list comes the Gilbert and Sullivan revival which will share interest with the coming finals after this week...
Wright, now producing 100 motors a month, also announced the second melon* of the U. S. aviation industry. It offered holders of five shares the right to buy one new share at $100. With Wright stock selling at $214 on one afternoon last week, each right was worth some $19. With 250,000 shares of Wright stock outstanding, the melon has a paper value of some $4,750,000. So stimulated, Wright stock jumped to $245, but closed the week at $202.50. On the day before Col. Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic, this stock could have been bought...

When Henry and Edsel Ford sought to buy him out in 1919, the Internal Revenue Bureau calculated that $9,489.34 per share was a fair price. Senator Couzens ultimately obtained $13,444 per share. He paid the U. S. a profits tax on the difference between the Revenue Bureau's fair price estimate and the price he received. That was in 1919 and the business seemed finished...
