Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: 94-Year-old Ethel Kay, a shareholder in Dominion Stores Ltd. For 40 years, chats with Dominion president Thomas Bolton at the company's annual meeting at the Royal York yesterday. However, not all shareholders were as amiable as Mrs. Kay. Lewis Gilbert, a 70-year-old professional investor from New York, kept Bolton on his toes with barrage of questions and also moved a motion to force the firm to reveal the salaries of its top three executives. It was defeated.
