Goodyear to Extend
Policy of Making
. Employes Partners
For the last ten years the Goodyear
Tire and Rubber company has followed
a policy of making "young partners'' of
such of its employes aa have shown
special ability and rendered highly effi
cient service, by making them common
stockholders In the company. Goodyear
haa 236 of these young partners at tha
present time branch managers, depart
ment hea.ds, factory foremen and other
who' have distinguished themselves by
special service.
Tha result of this policy hag been so
satisfactory that the company now pro
poses to extend It.' Th organisation haa
grown mightily in the last few years,
just aa the business has grown, and
more' candidate 'for "young partner
ship" are under consideration.
To that end a stockholders' meeting
will be held June 1 to authorise an In
crease tn the company'a common atock,
aa all the present authorised common is
outstanding and none la available for th
proposed distribution.
In the past Goodyear haa disposed of
its atock to employee on the basis of
five-year contracts, simply setting th
stock guide In the beneficiary's name and
permitting dividends, cash and stock, to
accumulate to the end of the period,
when settlement is made. Tha employe
really purchases the stock at par, though
most of the paymenta automatically take
cars of themselves. .
