week covered by the foregoing will appear
furnish them today, inasmuch as the week
ends Saturday and the Saturday figures are not available at time of going to press.
Accordingly, in the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated.
In the elaborate detailed statement, however, which we present further below
we are able to give the final and complete results for the week previous—the week
ended July 3.
For that week there was an increase of 46.0%, the aggregate of
clearings for the whole country having amounted to $9,904,193,047, against $6,783,911,136 in the same week in 1942. Outside of this city there was an increase of 42.5%,
the bank clearings at this centre having recorded a gain of 49.3%.
We group the
cities according to the Federal Reserve Districts in which they are located and from
this it appears that in the New York District (including this city) the totals show
an expansion of 49.4%, in the Boston Reserve Disrtict of 23.4%
and in the Phila¬
delphia Reserve District of 38.5%., In the Cleveland Reserve District the totals
register an increase of 49.0%, in the Richmond Reserve District of 37.7% and in the
Atlanta Reserve District of 51.1%.
The Chicago Reserve District enjoys a gain of
41.9%, the St. Louis Reserve District of 51.3% and the Minneapolis Reserve Dis¬
trict of 53.7%.
In the Kansas City Reserve District the improvement is 39.4%, in
the Dallas Reserve District 55.6% and in the San Francisco Reserve District 46.9%.

presently to be entered herein, to consider the disposition
of any sales consummated pursuant thereto, to con¬
plans for compliance with the provisions of Section 11 (b) and
of
said order, including the method of liquidating the indebtedness
owed by American Gas to the Minneapolis company, to entertain fur¬
ther proceedings, and to take such other and further action as may
be found appropriate in connection with this proceeding and such fur¬
ther proceedings and plans.
7
We have noted above the filing of a document by Community and
American Gas which purports to be a plan for compliance with Section
11 (b).
The document proposes no specific transactions, and does not
conform in outline to the steps we have found necessary in order to
ensure compliance by American Gas with Section 11'(b)
(2).
More¬
over,
a committee for holders of American Gas debentures has filed
a
petition for leave to file modifications to the plan, and counsel for
the holding companies has indicated on the record that their plan may
be
withdrawn.
Therefore, we do not at this time order hearings
thereon.'
.7'v

We shall direct that hearings be reconvened promptly by-the trial
examiner, to consider in the first instance those issues relating to the
Minneapolis company, Hearings on those issues may, however, be inter¬
rupted at any time thereafter in order to give prompt attention to
whatever specific
transactions and plans may be submitted for com¬

Gas s structure
and while the
management proposes to sell the other subsidiaries and use the piroceeds to acquire American Gas debentures at a discount, a common
stock structure would enable American Gas to comply with Section 1
(b) (1) by distributing its holding pro rata to its stockholders, and
thus eliminate dependence on the market for cash sales.
For these
reasons
a
common stock structure would aid compliance with sec¬

posed of its other subsidiaries.
Reduction, of American
to common stock would materially aid such a program;
■

and our present order thereunder.
these considerations, and assuming a continuation of
American Gas as a holding company owning the stock of the Minne¬
apolis company, the latter's structure is in itself complex, and Amer¬
ican
Gas's junior interest therein would not form a suitable basisfor supporting senior securities.
Two
objections have been suggested to our requiring that holding
company debt be eliminated as a step necessary to comply with Sec¬
tion 11 (b) (2). First, it is urged by the respondent companies and
the debenture trustee that Section 26 (c) of the Act limits our powers
and duties under Section 11
(b) (2), and that we may. not require
any modification of debt structures.
That argument misconstrues the
purpose and effect of Se.ction 26 (c), and lifts it out of its proper

context.

,

the basis of the record in this proceeding, that
elimination from the American Gas corporate structure of the secured
debentures and indebtedness owed to subsidiary companies, and reduc¬
tion of the corporate structure of American Gas to a single class of
securities, common stock, are steps necessary to ensure that the corpo¬
rate structure of American Gas will not unduly or unnecessarily com¬

Redemption of Outstanding Debentures
The fifth issue in this proceeding is whether we should order, pur¬
suant
to Section
12 (c) of the Act, that American Gas shall not
acquire, retire or redeem any of its outstanding debentures except pur¬
suant to a declaration which has become effective in accordance with
the procedure specified in Rule U-23, and whether, pursuant to Rule
U-100, the exemptions provided by paragraphs (b) (4), (5) and (6) of
liule

should be withdrawn as to future transactions of that
character.

option of American
Gas for the purchase of its outstanding debentures in the open market.
A company in the position of American Gas must effect compliance
with Section 11 in a manner that is "fair and equitable" within the
meaning of that section.
A plan of compliance, whether partial or
total, cannot be approved by us unless we find affirmatively that the
"fair and equitable" standard has been met, and it is therefore neces¬
sary that any acquisitions by American Gas of its outstanding deben¬
tures
be
scrutinized
by us
in the light of that standard.
But,
especially in view of the terms of the debenture agreement, substantial
amounts of debentures might be acquired by American Gas under the
exemptions provided by Rule U-42 unless such exemptions are with¬
drawn pursuant to Rule U-100.
It appears, therefore, that in order to
bring transactions of that nature before us for consideration, with¬
drawal of the exemptions in question is necessary and would be appro¬
priate in the interest of investors.
Our order will so provide, and will
further provide, pursuant to Section 12 (c), that American Gas shall
not acquire, retire or redeem any of its outstanding debentures except
pursuant to a declaration which shall have become effective under the
procedure specified in Rule U-23; provided, however, that any deben¬
tures held in the treasury of American Gas at the date of our order

The leverage of holding company control repre¬
compatible with the standards of the Act even
without the existence of debt in the holding company structure
indeed, the debt and preferred stocks of the subsidiary companies
more
than exhaust the maximum of senior securities appropriate to
the structure of the holding company system.
The equity remaining
for the holding company is too thin to permit further stratification.
Our analysis of the corporate structure of American Gas and its sub¬
sidiaries compels us to conclude that only a recapitalization of Ameiican Gas, on a common stock basis, would bring its corporate struc¬
ture
into compliance with the standards of simplicity and fairness
embodied in Section 11 (b) (2).
.7 7*
■
We do not overlook the fact that American Gas upon compliance
with our order undfer Section 11 (b) (1) will probably have only one;
subsidiary, the Minneapolis company.
This does not, however, afreet
our conclusion that American Gas should have a common stock, struc¬
ture.
It is doubtful whether the separate existence of American '^as
as
a
holding company with only one subsidiary could be justitiea,
-.In fact, the debenture committee has proposed that American Gas
and the Minneapolis company be merged after American Gas has dis¬
operating companies.

General

of reorganization for the company, filed last month
Associated Gas & Electric Corp., parent of General
Gas..
The plan, calling ior divestment of General's assets, simplifi¬
cation of its corporate structure and more equitable voting power,
was
proposed as an amendment superseding the plan of recapitaliza¬
tion filed previously by General Gas.
In setting
a date for a hearing the Commission
said that it ap¬
peared inappropriate to consider the plan, not joined in by General
Gas, as an amendment to the plan previously filed by General Gas.
As the proceedings on the plan filed by the trustees involve questions
of law and fact common
to the proceedings heretofore held on the
on

plan

new

a

of

trustees

filed by General Gas and to "death sentence" proceedings insti¬
by the Commission, the Commission consolidated all proceedings.
filed by the trustees is predicated upon the prior or simul¬
taneous consummation of
transactions affecting certain subsidiaries
of
General Gas.
One of these,
the consolidation of the Lexington
Water Power Co. into South Carolina Electric & Gas Co. has already

Otis & Co. received the right of intervention because the firm was

The Pennsylvania executive outlined the road's financial policy and
its program of debt reduction.
The road's present financial policy is
greatly influenced by the necesslt'es of war which, he said, cost the
carrier about $170,000,000 from 1939 to 1942, inclusive, in capital ex¬

Application of Proceeds—The net proceeds to be received by the cor¬
from the sale of the prior preferred stock now offered, after
deducting estimated expenses, will amount to approximately $9,586,450,
plus accrued dividends from June 15, 1943, to date of delivery.
Such
proceeds, together with other cash funds of the corporation sufficient
with such proceeds to aggregate $13,000,000, will be used to purchase
1,044 shares of the outstanding capital stock of National Theatres
Corp., representing 58% of the outstanding capital stock of that cor¬
poration, the remaining 42% of which is already owned by the cor¬
poration,
\ The
stock proposed to be purchased is now owned by the Chase
National Bank, New York, which has entered into an agreement with
the corporation
under which the corporation acquired the right to
purchase such stock, for the sum of $13,000,000 and the other con¬
siderations.
It is expected that the option will be exercised and the
shares of National Theatres Corp. will be purchased concurrently with,

continue adequate telegraph service to every
enjoys telegraph service.
Western
Union will not attempt, to abandon trunk lines which
form
a
part of a protection network to Western Union's existing
lines,
or
which may be necessary to provide adequate margin for
growth of loads resulting from military operations, expanding war
industries or the requirements of the public generally.
.
: Western
Union will plan to discontinue various tributary
parts
of the Postal trunk system which duplicate Western Union facilities,
where the Western Union facilities have more than sufficient capacity
to handle the present and prospective business.
Tne closing of the small Postal offices and tributary facilities will
contribute to a reduction in the message loads ultimately reaching
Postal trunk circuits.
This will greatly reduce the loads handled in
the larger Postal offices, which, in turn, will make availablo operat¬
ing
personnel to handle Western Union's now greatly expanded

preferential dividend, the holders
of the class B stock will partici¬
pate equally share for share in any further dividends.
An opinion
has been received from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to the
effect that, on the change of the present capital stock into class A
stock, no taxable gain or loss will be realized by the stockholders.
"(4) After the expiration of one year from the date of closing,
class B stock will be permitted to convert into class A stock, at the
rate of five shares of class B stock for three shares of class A stock.
"I believe that the proposed acquisition of the Postal System by
Western
Union offers advantages to all groups concerned, including
ultimate improvement of the stockholders' investment, better service
to the public and protection to the employees/
Western Union was
founded in 1851 on the basis of a principle to which we have held
since: namely, that in this country, the best telegraph service
obtainable for the public calls for a comprehensive system, under a
single business management, with uniform standards.

Detailed
plans for consolidating
the physical properties of the
two companies must necessarily follow a comprehensive investigation
and study.
In the interest of prompt action and speedy results, we
are
now
engaged in making such an investigation, so that, if and
when the merger agreement is approved, we can undertake the con¬
solidation with
the greatest promptness and
efficiency, subject to .
the conditions prevailing at the time.
When we have finally assem¬

information, we shall be able to determine,, among other-

service, where and to what extent facilities should
be added to Western Union's plant to take over the additional load,
how
office
space
should be arranged,
and what inter-connecting
facilities between the Western Union and Postal plants are necessary,
but our decision in every case will be based primarily on the requirements of the war and the public interest.

Some of the specific advantages of merger are:
