2 - = UNIVERSAL WEEKLY — '■ ^ May 12, 1934 I OWE YOU No. 77 1 Straight-from-the-Shoulder Talk by Carl Laemmle, President of the Universal Pictures Corporation In these strange days of struggle and doubt, it is important for you to know that your source of supply of pictures is safe and sound. Signing up for a list of good pictures really doesn't mean much to you unless you are sure that the company with which you sign is in a position to carry on its business. So I owe you a report on Universal. Here it is: Universal is in excellent shape. We are doing a splendid business all over the world. Last week, for example, we did a larger foreign business than we have done in any similar week in the past six years. Universal owes very little money anywhere, almost nothing in comparison with the business we are doing. A conservative forecast of our expense and income for the coming year shows that we can not only make the pictures we have obligated ourselves to make, but deliver something a little better than we promised.
