bond issue at competitive sale, E. A Cudahy,. Chairman, issued the
following statement;
"Officers of the company have followed with interest the competitive
sale- of state, municipal,
public utility and railroad issues and nav,e
been very favorably impressed with the results obtained.
We have noted
wide-spread feeling on the part of public and quasi-public bodies that
onTy through competitive bidding can assurance of a fair market ap¬
praisal be obtained and the interests of taxpayers and consumers be
adequately protected. Although we as meat packers are not subject to
the same considerations affecting municipalities, utilities and railroads,
we
feel, a sense of responsibility to our stockholders, employees and
customers, which requires that we arrange our finaiicing on the most
advantegous terms available to us. We- believe that the cost of money
is just as much a cost of doing business as are any of our administra¬
tive or operating expenses. In view of the long-term improvement which
has characterized the company's operations and cre-dit position and the
seasoned nature of a Cudahy Packing Co. obligation, we feel justified
in assuming
that this new offering will receive general investment
acceptance end will attract bids by representative underwriting institu¬
tions.
If these expectations are- realized, this financing will be sub¬
jected to the broadest possible range of informed investment appraisal,

an
investment banking syndicate headed by Blyth & Co., Ipc. This
loan, according to Mr. Hilton, represents a major simplification ir. the
corporation's capital structure and reduces total annual requirements
for interest and principal by approximately $400,000, equal to* 25 cents
a
share on the outstanding common stock.
Mr. Hilton stated that the proceeds of this long-term financing will
be used to retire the existing
$10,200,000 mortgage on The Palmer
House, which would mature in eight years, and to retire the existing
mortgages on The Stevens Hotel, Chicago, 111.; The Town House. Los
Angeles, Calif.; Hilton Hotel, Long Beach, Calif., and Hilton Hotel,
Lubbock, Texas, now bearing higher rates of interest.
This results in all of the properties owned by the corporation being
clear of mortgage indebtedness, except The Palmer House, The Plaza
in New York City, and a small indebtedness on the Hilton Hotel of
El Paso, which is not subject to prepayment.
As a result of the privi¬
lege of prepaying up to $1,000,000 a year, the new financing gives the
corporation the greatest flexibility. In periods of prosperity it permits
the corporation to carry out it.; policy of reducing its fixed obligation^
as rapidly as possible,
while in periods of reduced earnings, its fixed
charges are reduced substantially, Mr. Hilton said.
The Palmer House,
containing 2,250 rooms, is one of the world's
largest hotels. It is one of the most valuable hotel sites in the world,
located in the heart of Chicago's "Loop."
The aggregate yearly store
rentals exceed $1,000,0C0, and are more than enough to service both
interest and principal on, the new bonds.
Such rentals are larger than
the commercial rentals of any other hotel in the world.
The original Palmer House
was constructed immediately after the
great Chicago fire in 1871, and the property remained in the Potter
Palmer family until acquired by the Hilton interests in 1945,
The
present hotel was opened in 1926 and cost $30,000,000 including land,
to build.
It is the third Palmer House in the city of Chicago,
The
Palmer House has played an important role in the history of Chicago.
Hilton Hotels'Corp. is the largest operator of hotels in the United
States.
It
operates the following hotels:
The Palmer House and
•eevens in Chicago; The Plaza and Roosevelt, New York; Mayflower in
Washington, D. C.; Neil House in Columbus, Ohio; Dayton Bilimore in
Dayton, Ohio; Falm Beach Biltmore in Palm Beach, Florida; Hilton
Hotel, Lubbock, Texas; Hilton Hotel, Albuquerque; Town House, Los
Angeles, and Hilton Hotel at Long Beach, Calif. It has contracted for
the construction of a hotel in San Juan, Puerto Rico.—V. 165, p. 1729.

affected by the proposed amendment and the company will both
be required to make additional payments as though the present plan
<as originally adopted had
contained such amendment. Thus the total
cost of the increased benefits will be paid partly by. the employees
"affected by the proposed amendment and partly by the company, such
I employees* contributing 4Vu%
compensation received during such
.'years of creditable membership service after March 31, 1945, which is
in excess of $5,000, but does not exceed $20,000.
On the basis of independent actuarial studies making various assump¬
tions in regard to the above factors, the company estimates that the
lump sum additional cost to the company for all service prior to Jan.
1, 1947, of the proposed amendment over and above the cost of the
present plan would be approximately $547,467, of which $169,531 is
on account of officers and directors and the remainder is for all other
employees affected by the amendment.
It is expected that this amount
will be paid as promply as possible in instalments as permitted by the
Internal Revenue
Code (10% per year).
However, the company Is
■allowed considerable discretion in relating such payments to its general
financial condition.

increased $7,692,000, or 4.8%, to a record total of
$168,281,000. This gain was achieved despite reductions in both electric
and gas rates placed in effect early in the year estimated to save
our
customers
approximately $7,000,000 annually.
These combined
rate reductions affected gross revenues in 1946 to the extent of about
$5,200,000.

Hickey, President,

Feb. 28 stated in part:

The

corporation proceeded with cash purchases of shares of the
stock during the last five months of 1946, after a break
in the securities markets made more comprhehensive plans for retir¬
ing the outstanding preference stock, for the time being, unfeasible. It remains the view of
the board of directors, however, that the
most satisfactory and expeditious method for retiring large blocks of
the

preference stock is by exchanges of securities comparable to
thpse carried out in 1944 and 1945.
On Jan. 22, 1947 the corporation

and Exchange Commission

a stated value of $1 per share
to

amount of preference stock from 5,000,000 shares to 1,214,700 shares
and converted such authorized shares from no par value stock of a,
stated value of $5 per share to a $5 per share par value stock. .These
changes did not result in any change in the aggregate dollar amounts
shown
in the balance sheet for the common and preference stocks
nor
in any change in the surplus accounts of the corporation.
Up to Dec. 31, 1946 the corporation purchased in the open market
for
cash 78,500 shares of its $3 cumulative preference stock at a
total cost of $3,780,585.
The Securities and Exchange Commission fa
its order dated Aug. 9, 1946 authorized the corporation to expend an.
aggregate amount of $5,000,000 for the purchase of
shares of its
$3 cumulative preference stock over a period of six months.

ings over the preceding year has occurred. [Full details
regarding the latter °were shown in our article on the.
New ^Capital Flotations for ; the calendar year 1946, in
our issue of Jan. 27, pages 528 to
536.]
The latter com¬
pilations constitute: an accurate index of new financing
done and cover the entire country.
The Stock Exchange
listings relate to an entirely different thing.
They em¬
brace not only new but also old securities which have
just found their way to the Exchange, and they relate
only to the New York Stock Exchange, by which we
mean that they do not include listings of any of the other
stock exchanges of the country.
They also include se¬
curities replacing old securities, which process occurs
chiefly in cases of recapitalizations and of reorganiza¬
tions.
