14 announced that it had issued an order denying
exemption from registration under the Securities
a proposed offering by this corporation of 2,920
.shares of its 5% cumulative preferred stock, $100 par, and 2,920 shares
of its $1 par common stock, to be offered in units consisting of one
share of preferred and one share of common at an offering price of
$101 per unit.
The Commission's order stated that the Commission
has
"reasonable cause to believe that the terms and conditions of
.said Regulation A have not been complied with, in that the notifica¬
tion
on
Form I-A and
the offering circular omit to state material
facts necessary to make
the statements made, in the light of the
circumstances under which they are made, not misleading" and that
use
of the offering circular in connection
with any offering of the
shares to which the notification relates "would operate as a fraud or
deceit upon the offerees thereof."
If requested, a hearing will be held
on
the question whether the order of denial shall be vacated.—V. 179,

Unless the present offering and the anticipated $2,500,000 deben¬
tures or other financing is successfully concluded in time to complete
the construction of the racing plant and consummate other necessary
arrangements to conduct the meeting on March 15, 1954, it is unlikely
that the corporation will be able to avail itself of the permit presently
granted.
In the event the financing is not concluded in sufficient
time, the corporation intends to either apply for an extension of its
present racing dates or if such extension does not permit sufficient
time to complete the plant, a new application will be made to the
Louisiana State Racing Commission for dates during the next licensing
period. While the corporation believes that said extension or application
will be granted, no representation is made or intended that such ex¬
tension or application will definitely be granted.—V. 179, p. 106.
