In scheduling a hearing for April 29,
the Commission /announced
that the proceeding was based upon its review of facts? developed in
an
inquiry conducted recently into the "adequacy andy accuracy" of
the information disclosed in the registration statement ( covering the
issuance of 215,000 shares of common stock.
It appears, the SEC said, that there are "reasonable; grounds for
believing that the registration statement contains untrue statements
of material facts and omits to state material facts required or neces¬
sary
to make the statement not misleading.", At the hearing, the
commissioners will take testimony from witnesses for the purpose of
determining whether "such misstatement or omissions exist and, if so,
whether j, stop order should be issued."

The Commissioner has sold 547 parcels of real estate' under his
liquidation program,
including large hotel, apartment, ranch
and,
commercial properties in Calirornia.
Net returns amounted to $19,843,000. Judge Robinson of the Superior Court inspired high bidding
at the hearings on
sales in Los Angeles and San Francisco, Calif.
The Commissioner's gross income
was $48,682,000 during his six
years of management, with net income from operation of $12,643,000.
The report discloses that no fees are paid to the Commissioner as
takes place under ordinary court receiverships or trusteeships.
A solution of the affairs of the company is now taking place through
an
agreement between Commissioner Mortimer
and Facific States.
Litigation between the company and the State of California, which
has
been
continuous
since
1939,
will cease.
The agreement was
reached under the guidance of Governor Warren.
It was approved
by the Attorney General and the Court.
; 7 Under the agreement the company is borrowing $9,554,756 against
its assets—the full principal balance due claimants.
This sum is now
being paid to them-through the Commissioner.
Simultaneously, a
lien is being taken by the Commissioner on all assets to insure any
payment
of interest to claimants, when the
Courts rule on that
matter.
All sajes authorized by Judge Robinson will be completed.
Until the conditions of
the agreement are fulfilled,
the company
will
continue
under
the
supervision of the Commissioner.
