Accordingly, in the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated.
In the elaborate detailed statement, however, which we present further below,
we
are able to give final and complete results
of the week previous—the week
ended Aug. 16. For that week there was a decrease of 0.1%, the aggregate of clear¬
ings for the whole country having amounted to $12,486,226,762 against $12,504,143,198
in the same week in 1946. Outside of this city there was a gain of 7.8%, the bank
clearings at this center having recorded a loss of 7.1%. We group the cities ac¬
cording 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 record a
loss of 6.6%, but in the Boston Reserve District the totals register a gain of 2.5%
and in the Philadelphia Reserve District of 1.9%. The Cleveland Reserve District
shows an improvement of 6.1%, the Richmond Reserve District of 3.4% and the
Atlanta Reserve District of 4.6%.

PURPOSE—The est. net proceeds to the
corporation will be
($223,000)
and will be used for general
corporate purposes as additional
working
capital.
It is the intention of the corporation to
pay off the past-due
accounts payable which total
$107,719 as of April 30, 1947, and
pastdue Federal excise taxes and State
franchise taxes which total
$105,31®
as
of April 30, 1947, with
profits from current operations
plus what¬
ever
part of the .proceeds of this offering is
necessary in order that
the
present
earning position of the corporation wiil no
longer be
burdened by those old debts.
If profits decrease
markedly it is pos¬
sible that
the greater part of the
proceeds may be used for
this

Since
Dec
17. 1945, Manufacturers Credit Corp., of Washington, D. C., has
advanced loans to the corporation amounting to 80%
of the face
■value of, and secured by specified accounts receivable and inventory.
orrow

The

of this outstanding loan balance
for which accounts receivable of
£89 521 and inventory of $75,878 were pledged.
Interest is at the rate
of 12% per annum on the average daily outstanding value of collateral
accounts during each month.
This is an effective rate of approxi¬
mately 15%
a year on the outstanding loan, since the collateral
accounts are 125% of the loans.
If the present loan balance were
maintained throughout the year the total ihterest charge for the year
would be approximately $19,850.
If the financial position of the
corporation continues to improve it hopes to be able to effect such
necessary borrowing at lower interest rates from banking institutions.
WARRANTS—55,000 stock purchase warrants were authorized at
the stockholders' meeting of March 18, 1946.
Each warrant entitled
the holder thereof to purchase, at any t.ime subsequent to May 1, 1947,
and prior to May 1, 1951, at $3.50 'per share, one share of the common
stock.
For services in connection with selling 99,000 shares of common
stock at S3 per share in April, 1946, Willis E. Burnside & Co. was
allowed to purchase 30,000 warrants.
For services to the corporation,
Hamilton Hoge, President, was allowed to purchase 17,000 warrants,
John Hoge,
Vice-President and Treasurer, was allowed to purchase
4 000
and Francis H. Hoge, Jr., 4,000; all of the foregoing 55,000
warrants being purchased at the price of $0.05 per warrant.
As of
April 2, 1946, 55,000 common shares were reserved for issuance when,
