Purpose—Company has made and contemplates making expenditures
of approximately1 $83,600,000 during
1948, 1949 and 1950 for the con¬
struction or acquisition of property.
The net proceeds will be used
by the company to reimburse its treas¬
ury in part for expenditures already made for improvements, exten¬
sions, and additions to its utility plant. In order to finance the above
construction program,
the company will, to the extent available, use
its cash on hand in excess of working capital
(including the proceeds
of the new bonds, $12,000,000 received
during 1948 from the sale of

shares of

He said that, among other things, "we attribute the com¬
pany's failure to its inability to overcome the complexities of distribu¬
tion and the difficulties of financing sales and erection.
Production
and consumer acceptance of our houses has never presented a serious
problem. In fact, close to 400 have been shipped into 20 states, also
to South America, Alaska and Hawaii."
The petition says the Harman plant is located on premises owned
by the United States and occupied by the petitioner under an arrange¬
ment with the Navy Department.
It also is stated in the petition that
the "petitioner is presently in default in payment of rental, and repre¬
sentatives of the Navy Department have threatened to take possession."
