ship, management (and if a daily paper, the circulation, etc.), of the aforesaid pub- 
lication for the date shown in the above caption, required by the Act of August 24, 
1912, embodied in Section 4438, Postal Laws and Regulations, to-wit:

trustee or in any other fiduciary relation, the name of the person or corporation for 
whom such trustee is acting, is given; also that the said two paragraphs contain 
statements embracing affiant’s full knowledge and belief as to the circumstances 
and conditions under which stockholders and security holders who do not appear 
upon the books of the company as trustees, hold stock and securities in a capacity 
other than that of a bona fide owner; and this affiant has no reason to believe that 
any other person, association or corporation has any interest, direct or indirect, in 
the said stock, bonds or other securities than as so stated by him.
