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modifications to the plan, and counsel for the holding companies has indicated on the record that their plan may be withdrawn.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 .7-V'7;: -77 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¬ maximum the sents ^ ' 1 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 (1) (b) 11 tion from Apart 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¬ find, We upon unfairly or inequitably distribute voting power among security holders, of its holding company system. Our order to be entered herein will therefore require that American Gas change its present capital structure consisting of secured debentures, indebtedness owed to subsidiary companies, and common stock, into a single class of stock, namely common stock. of proceeds the sider 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 U-42 should be withdrawn as to future transactions of that character. to us entirely appro¬ Withdrawal of the foregoing exemptions appears priate must the circumstances. We have found that American Gas dispose of certain of its subsidiary companies and must recapi¬ under talize the on (b) 11 Section with of basis all common stock structure. If compliance is effected by sales of the securities of its which American Gas states it prefers—the an (1) method subsidiaries—the proceeds which, under the provisions trustee will receive the debenture 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 agreement, would be usable at the of the debenture herein shall Years— Corp. 19, 1938, we approved Public Utilities Manage¬ ment Corp. as a mutual service company subject to the condition, among others, that if the operation of its cost-allocation method should not result in a fair and equitable allocation of costs among the asso¬ ciate services companies we would require after notice and opportunity By order dated Nov. for Gross revenues and equitable, and. to the extent that it would retroactive adjustments of such cost the feasible subsequent development of standards culminating . , , Federal excess tax income Federal As result a of for reexamining this and other holding company and service company relationships became apparent.

Accordingly, we find that such changes will meet the requirements of Section 13 of a Act. The common stock the and acquisitions sales of the Management corporation's will, therefore, be exempt in accordance with Rule U-40 (b) (3) from the provisions of Sections 9 (a), 12 and Rule U-43 (b) (d), and 12 (f) of the Act. Reservations Our order of Jurisdiction to be entered and Continuation of Proceeding this time, pursuant to the above findings, will prescribe the broad outlines of action required in order to bring the holding company system more nearly into compliance with Section 11 (b) of the Act. The statute gives the holding companies one year to comply with our order, and they may submit a plan or plans pro¬ posing the methods they consider most appropriate for that purpose.

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. .

The firm to which the issue would be sold is Kuhn, Loeb & Co. of New York. ' ' Otis & Co. received the right of intervention because the firm was a stockholder of the Pennsylvania RR. Halsey, Stuart & Co., Inc., was refused the privilege because it did not have such connection. The ICC's order said Otis & Co. was allowed to intervene "with¬ out the right, however, to broaden the issues inherent in the applica¬ v ..'p; the application July 8 and the refinancing operation alternately was both praised as ."very favorable" and challenged as "entirely improper." Top offic'als of the Pennsyl¬ vania RR. defended the refnanc'.ng as having "advantages too great to lose," while Otis &-Co. described the operation as being "far less favorable" to the railroad than existing financial conditions permit.

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.

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¬ bled our information, we shall be able to determine,, among other- " - ' facilities can be closed down without 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: (1) The pooling of the operating, construction, maintenance and messenger forces in the industry, so as to relieve present manpower * things, where and to what extent impairment .

The combined system will not have a monopoly of the communications business but will make possible a stronger and more efficient telegraph service, better able to compete with the telephone, air mail and post-war radio developments. . Western Union uses over 208,000 miles of pole lines. These are generally located on railroad rights-of-way. Postal has something over 31,000 miles of pole lines, generally located along highways or private rights-of-way adjacent to the railroads.
