greatly expanded war volume, and Government help made available for
just such situations has been used advantageously by the company.
Borrowing under Regulation V is expected to increase still further, as
sales volume builds up, during the coming year.
The Regulation V type loan of $6,000,000 appearing as a current
liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of Oct. 31, 1942, was

1942, amounted to
37% over the corresponding figure of
$3,637,865 as of Oct. 31, 1941.
Receivables as of Oct. 31, 1942, had increased to $5,034,611; this
compares with receivables one year before of $2,172,506.
Similarly,
the inventories rose during the fiscal year to $8,505,433 from $2,918,169
12 months previously.
Not only have inventories increased substan¬
tially, but inventory control has been made difficult by the frequently
changing Government priority regulations and the ever-continuous
military necessity for modifications in product design.
These sharp
expansions in receivables and inventories reflect the rapidly rising
demand for war material that can be fabricated by Dresser divisions.
In addition to expenditures for the company's own account, outlays

the Baruch Commission led to a material increase in neoprene capacity

raises issues involving, among other things, the corporate
structure of the corporation,
including distribution of voting power
among its security holders and the justification for the corporation's
having more than one class of stock, as well as matters relating to
the continued existence of the corporation and its status as part of
,the holding company system which it is alleged to head.
Hearings in
this proceeding, as well as . on the corporation's own plan, have been
completed.
In a brief filed with the Commission on Aug. 1, 1942,
counsel for the Public Utilities Division of the Commission contended
that the voluntary plan submitted by the corporation should be dis¬
missed and that in lieu of any other action, the Commission should
order the
corporation to be dissolved.
Counsel for the corporation
have opposed both these contentions.
Oral argument was heard by
the full Commission
on Oct.
8, 1942, but as of Feb. 1, 1943, the
Commission had not
announced its decision.
Until the issues in
these proceedings have been finally determined, it will be impossible
to know what may be the requirements imposed upon the corporation
for compliance with section 11 of the Public Utility Holding Company

It has been the corporation's
