In the

Indiana—Port Wayne

present further below
we are able to give the final and complete results for the week previous—the week
ended Aug. 14.
For that week there was an increase of 14.7%, the aggregate of
clearings for the whole country having amounted to $8,424,692,564, against $7,342,902,797 in the same week in 1942. Outside of this city there was an increase of 12.8%,
the bank clearings at this centre having recorded a gain of 16.7%.
We group the
cities according to the Federal Reserve Districts in which they are located and from
this it appears that in the New York District (including this city) the totals show
an improvement of 16.4%, in the Boston Reserve District of 5.1%, and in the Philadel¬
phia Reserve District of 12.7%. In the Cleveland Reserve District the totals are
larger by 1.4%, in the Richmond Reserve District by 10.5% and in the Atlanta Re¬
serve District by 29.2%.
In the Chicago Reserve District the totals register an
expansion of 10.2%, in the St. Louis Reserve District of 14.2% and in the Minne¬
apolis Reserve District of 34.6%.
In the Kansas City Reserve District the in¬
crease is
22.6%, in the Dallas Reserve District 16.2%, and in the San Francisco
District

+ 17.8

Michigan—Ann Arbor..

Accordingly, in the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated.

unable to find the plan fair
and equitable to the persons affected thereby, as it makes no pro-:
vision for redistribution of voting power,
The plan, the Commission
said, perpetuates the virtual disfranchisement of the. preferred stockholders and consequently is not fair and equitable to them.
The Commission held that United contributed nothing to the normal
function of the system companies and is therefore economically un¬
necessary to their operations.
For the unnecessary corporate existence
of
United and the complexities resulting therefrom the stockholders
of United have paid a price, the Commission said.
Discussing distribution of voting power, the Commission said that
as
of March 31, 1942, the common stock held 85% voting power and
preferred stock 15%.

Significantly referring to its'single class stock order, the Commis¬

Abandonment of United's present business as a public utility hold¬
