Investment Satisfaction 

 "for Years and Years" 



ONE of our older clients writes 

 us, "my initial inquiry ad- 

 dressed to you was a very fortunate 

 thing, a source of profit and satis- 

 faction to me for years and years." 



This is a typical instance of the 

 satisfaction experienced by all our 

 clients. May we serve you in a 

 similar way? Write for literature 

 describing our service, the Straus 

 Plan, and the sound first mortgage 

 bonds we offer in $1000 and $500 

 denominations, netting 6%. Ask for
