Public contact men were taken on to payrolls and a determined effort made to bring the general public in. The campaign succeeded even better than was expected and., while some of the purchasers might have been hard hit when highâ€"pressure was withdrawn the net result has been that there is in reality no Big Business left, the giâ€" gantic accumulation of capital now being held by over twentyâ€"five millions of shareholders, from the highest to the humblest.
