that-it be permitted to acquire from the: Republic Serviee Corp.

all

the event of net recoveries
or dividend rights in the
absence of such recoveries as would entitle them to PGE stock under
the terms of the Adjustment Trust.Certificates of contingent interest
would
be issued in
appropriate units for distribution among prior
preference stockholders and first preferred stockholders of PEPCo
in two classes to give effect to the respective liquidation rights of
the existing stocks.
■ 'V
■"
(e) The certificates described above would be allocated as follows:
(1)
The certificates of beneficial Interest would be allocated to
PEPCo's bondholders to the extent necessary to cover
the balance
of their claims, (including interest accrued .to the date of allocation
to be fixed or defined in the plan)
after taking into account the
cash and other assets distributed to bondholders as outlined
above;
and the remainder,
if any, would be distributed among the prior
preference stockholders.
For the purpose of such allocation, the cer¬
tificates of beneficial Interest an*^ the-stock of the realization cor¬
poration and of Traction would be valued on the basis of the; values
hereinbefore found for PEPCo's assets as of Dec. 31, 1942, adjusted
according to an appropriate method set out in the plan to reflect,
as of
the allocation date, the net current asset positions of PGE and
Traction (or the proceeds from any sale of the Traction stock), and
the
market
value of Consolidated
securities, without taking into
account any unrealized recoveries from the litigation described above.
Values
as
of the allocation date and allocations pursuant
thereto
would be subject to the approval of this Commission and the court.5
(2)
The certificates of, contingent interest would be allocated to
•the prior preference stock and the first preferred stock, according
to
their respective liquidation rights,
with due allowance for any
certificates
of beneficial interest -allocated to the prior preference
stock under subparagraph (1) of this paragraph (e),.
' :
:
Distribution would ..be-made in accordance with these allocations,
except that the plan may contain provision, for withholding dis¬
tributions to particular bondholders whose-claims shall not have been
/allowed by the court by reason of the contentions made by stock¬
holders of PEPGo that such bondholders are not holders in due course
and are subject to subordination. Provision may also be made In the

Attached to the court petition was a copy of the deposit agreement
dated as of July 1, 1944, under which it is proposed to solicit the

an effort to effectuate the plan in the

railroads for the month
of February are along the same lines of recent months, that is gross
earnings exceeded those of the corresponding month a year ago but
net earnings were smaller, due to higher operating costs. Gross earn¬
ings in February are smaller than those reported in January and
below the all-time peak figure of $800,232,157 reached in August,
1943. Net earnings in February, while higher than in January, were
below the all-time high of $332,944,921 attained in August, 1943., ///>/■:
Gross earnings in February, 1944, were $735,305,465 as compared
with $363,479,220 in February, 1943, an increase of $71,826,245, or

from $255,046,330 in
