established in 1896 by Humphrey O'Sullivan,
was acquired from him by other interests
in 1917 as the O'Sullivan Rubber Co.,
Inc. (N. Y.).
The New York company engaged in the sale of "O'Sullivan's Heels" principally to the shoe repair trade but had no manu¬
facturing facilities, all of its products being manufactured for it by ;z
others.
In
1932, Victor Products Corp., being then engaged in ihe
business of manufacturing and selling rubber heels and soles under
its own
trade name, had
reached a sales volume more than twice ?
that of the New York company, and being interested in a trade mark
of recognized standing
in the industry, approached it with a view
of acquiring its trade,marks and business.
On Aug. 11, 1932, Victor
entered into agreement with the New York company which resulted ;
in the purchase by Victor of the trade mark, trade names, good will,
and molds of
the New York company
for a total consideration of ■
$600,000. Subsequent to this purchase by Victor, the New York com¬
pany
was
dissolved.
The Delaware company
was
incorporated by
Victor on Sept. 27, 1932, and on Oct. 4, 1932, it acquired from Victor
the trade marks, good will, and molds of the New York company and
certain manufacturing plant3 and equipment of Victor, in exchange

Immediately upon the surrender of Japan, in August, 1945, all of the
war production contracts, with the exception of the con¬
tracts covering the production of diesel-powered lift trucks for the
U. S. Navy and for certain special self-propelled gun carriages, were
cancelled.
As
of
Nov.
I,
1945, war orders totaling approximately
$547,000 were still'uncancelled, but the company is unable to make
any
representation: as to when or if such orders will be cancelled.,
Up to Nov. 1, 1945, the company had submitted termination claims,
other than under cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts,
aggregating $131,000,
of which $117,000 had been paid as of said date;, leaving an unpaid
balance of $14,000,
and the company expects to submit additional
such termination claims, aggregating at least $650,000. The settlement
of all such claims involves negotiations with governmental agencies,
and the company cannot predict when; such claims will be paid or
whether they will be allowed in full.
Costa and expenses Incurred
in
connection
with
the
termination
of
the
major portion of the
cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts are being reimbursed by the Government
as
incurred, and, based on past experience* the company does not

production was concentrated at the company's Hegewisch plant, Which,
prior to the war, had been unused for some years except for a portion
of such plant leased to another
company.
During the war period the
company also produced, large quantities of shell forgings and machined
fhells, and processed armor plate for the U. S. Government principally
at -ts McKees Rocks plant.
Beginning in 1944 the company produced
five hundred
deisel-powered automotive lift trucks for the United
States Navy Department.
In addition to such production for war
purposes the company also continued the manufacture, at its McKees
Rocks plant, of railway freight and
passenger cars, industrial cars,
