planned, As this is written, labor troubles are holding}
up their production still further.
Fortunately we have been_ able . to,
;
secure
sufficient business elsewhere to run .all our plants at full
capacity.
When reconversion is completed and business stabilized', ;
there
is every indication
thafe the demand for our products will
exceed our present capacity.
In
this period our footage production exceeded that of the sixmonths' period ended Dec. 31, 1944, yet our dollar sales and profits
were
less because the plywood packing cases we are manufacturing
for shipping peacetime products: are very much less costly than th^
cases made to conform to
the specifications of the various • depart?
ments
of
the Government
for war orders.
Nearly alt .war orderS '
called for specially constructed boxes treated to withstand all kinds
of atmospheric conditions and necessarily were more expensive.
.
In November we purchased the plant and equipment of the. Plymouth |
Box and Panel. Co. at Plymouth, N. .C; t With it, aufficient standing
timber was also bought, or stumpage contracted for, to assure a:
continuous
log supply for many years.
This plant has a large
.capacity but. the., increased demand for. Atlas Plywood packing case$.
has already booked it lull for months ahead.
This acquisition also •
gives us greater capacity in-our Southern Division .where .the deman$;
for plywood -cases has been steadily .growing.;

preferred'stock, 3.60% series states:
15, 1946, this company issued subscription warrants to
its
common
stockholders entitling them, or their assigns, to sub¬
scribe to 3/40ths of a. share of cumulative
preferred stock, 3.60%
series lor each share of common stock held. - The warrants expired
at 3 p. m, (local time) Jan. 28.
Of. the 149,000 shares of preferred
stock offered
142,563 shares,: or 95.6 %, were subscribed for by
common
stockholders or their assigns.
Late in December,
1945, the management ascertained that profits
for the month of November had declined substantially, but believed
that such decline was
the result of the abnormally large sales in
October following the late .cigarette: shortage.; However,. within the
last
few days,
the company has been able to compute its profits
for
December,
1945,
and while
they show an improvement over
November,
they
are ^materially
below what had been anticipated.
Accordingly, the comp'any believes that this information should be
made available-'to the subscribers

profits taxes.
The
company claims as a deduction for income tax purposes the intangible
costs
of
drilling wells and computes depletion on a statutory per¬
centage basis.
It is impractical to estimate these deductions and the
income tax liability before the close of the fiscal year on June 30, 194$.
In November, 1945, the company made a bank loan in the amount
of $4,300,000 bearing interest at 2% per annum, repayable in install¬
ments aggregating $361,200 on May l and Nov. 1 of each year beginning.on May l, 1948 to May l, 1953, with a final payment of $326,800
on
Nov. 1, 1953.
Under the terms of the loan the company has the
right to prepay all or part of the indebtedness before maturity-,
without premium, upon 30 days' perior written notice, and it has
agreed that it will not without prior written consent thereto allow
its consolidated earned surplus to fall below
$4,500,000.
With the
proceeds the pre-existing bank loan in the principal sum of $3,300,000
was
retired and $1,000,000 was added to current working funds for
development of properties and other corporate purposes.i

recommendations of its Special Committee, headed by
O'Mahoney. as Chairman. This Comm'ttee has been
•making an extensive investigation and study of petroleum resources
and
the
production and consumption of petroleum and petroleum I
products within
and
outside
the
United
States
for
the
express
purpose of "the formulation of a national petroleum policy." Should
we ignore
the Committee's findings even before they are submitted?
Examination of the proposed treaty will show thafc
by its adoption
the-United States will be definitely establishing a national, as well
; as
an international,
petroleum policy. It would be doing th^s by
indirection;
I might almost say bv subterfuge. Congress and the
nation would be bound, not by their own considered" action, but by
the obligations of a treattv of the, broadest implications.
/
./, •If we are going to .determine national economic
policy by treaty
which would compel us to divide our markets' at Lome and abroad
with other nations;, there is just as much' reason for a ccal, steel
or shipping treaty as there
is for an oil treaty..
