Vibra. ac. Blocks.—The extraordinary meeting of shareholders in Vibrapac Blocks, Ltd., Christchurch, to consider the subdivision of the £1 shares into 10s shares will be held on December 16. “One reason for this proposal is to enable the shares to be more freely marketable upon the Stock Exchange," says a circular from the company. "The lower denomination of the shares at 10s par value should also have the ultimate effect of spreading holdings over a greater number of investors. Should the time come when the company needed additional capital, an appeal could then be made to a wider circle of members.”
