company was distributed among shareholders of Lukens Iron & Steel
Co., its predecessor. Proportionate to the holdings of the shareholders
of that company 10,000 shares of common stock were transferred to
A.
F.
Huston, trustee, with the proviso that the shares be held as
treasury stock available for sale to Lukens employees. No sale of the
10,000 shares has ever been authorized, nor has anyone ever requested
the right to purchase any. In
1946, representatives of some of the
stockholders of Lukens Iron & Steel Co. filed a bill in equity against
Lukens Steel Co., in the Court of Common Pleas of Chester County,
Pa., asking the return of the 10,000 shares on the ground that the
stock had not been sold and they were entitled to its return because
the purpose of the
transfer had not been fulfilled. That court and
subsequently, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania held that the return
