A LETTER from an Investor who owns $1,800,000 in Securities "I HAVE just received and carefully gone over the analysis of my investment holdings which you have furnished. I want to thank you for this analysis, and to express my very great satisfaction with the work done. "I had no idea that an analysis such as you suggested to me would be nearly as complete as this is, nor that it would convey so much information which is vital for the investor to have before him. Entirely aside from the tabulation of securities with rate and income yield, the very thoughtful comment and advice on the various securities are especially appreciated. "Never before have I allowed a bond house to have my list, or any part of it. I felt that they would only use it for trading purposes, and I was convinced that any investor who allowed his list to be so used would gradually find himself holding securities of less and less value and salability, because of the temptation to trade securities carrying a premium for those offered at a discount. "My list, I am convinced, will in no sense be used by you in that way. You have proved this by the comments and analysis of my various securities. On the contrary, I feel a sense of protection that I did not previously have, since you are now in a position to advise me in advance of any possible trouble, thus giving me an opportunity to get out of a weak investment. "I beg to assure you, therefore, that this analysis is of very substantial value to me, and I wish to thank you very sincerely for furnishing it."
