Generating capacity of the subsidiaries was 842,358 Kw. at the end of 1942. The company and its subsidiaries have over 30.000 employees. A comparison between the statistics for 1942 and 1932 of the com¬ pany's subsidiaries operating in Latin America indicates that in this ten year period the number of communities served increased 13.8%; electric customers increased 76.9%; output of power plants increased 92.7%; production capacity of power plants increased 10%; gas outGenerating station . went down 1.1% and put Increased 56.5%; whil6 passengers carried miles of electric railway decreased 10.4 %. company Capital stock of subsidiaries—— Funded 1943/ Accrued Accrued —————— taxes interest Expenditures—Construction expenditures by subsidiaries were approximately $8,900,000. Power plants and additions were under construction in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador and Panama. Difficulties in obtaining materials and equip¬ ment under war-time conditions retarded the progress of many projects and in some instances it was necessary to suspend work temporarily. Maturities—Mr. Calder reports that on Feb. 15. 1943 the company made the final payment on its indebtedness to the banks and Electric Bond and Share which had originally been for $50,000,000. The amount outstanding on these serial notes at the end of 1941 was $14,500,000, of which $11,400,000 was paid off in 194? and $3,100,000 was paid off in 1943. The $35,000,000 note payable to Electric Bond and Share due Nov. 15, 1938 was by agreement subordinated to the serial notes and the debentures of the company so long as any part of the bank loons remained unpaid. Upon the final pavment on ihe serial notes in 1943, the subordination feature of this note was removed and the interest rate was reduced from 7% to 6% per annum. It is the view of the Securities and Exchange Commission that no payment may be made on the principal of this debt without prior steps under the Public Utility Holding Company Act ancj the company is committed to give the Commission at least 30 days' notice in writing before making any such payment. This $35,000,000 debt and the $50,000,000 deben¬ tures are the only indebtedness of the company other than current accounts payable. Funded debt maturities of the subsidiaries during the next three years total $243,614. The company and its subsidiaries have bank balance in the United States and U. S. Government securi¬ ties aggregating $14,600,000 at the present time. Financing and Latin American Partners—In 1941, for the first time since the beginning of the depression, the company was able to do — : Deferred liabilities Deferred - credits _ Reserves Earned ; Statement Other $12,880,986 $10,817,915 under the laws of the countries all of these companies have a and as members of their boards of directors' meetings are held locally. every country in which the subsidiaries do business, some securities of the operating companies are held by local investors and, as security markets have improved during the past few years, additional local partners have been brought into the business. As exchange and economic conditions iroorove and further financing by the subsidiaries appears favorable, Mr. Calder points out that the company will continue to avail itself of the opportunity to bring in additional local partners. In all such situations where the com-pany retains a large investment, it naturally and properly reserves the right to watch the affairs and participate in thq management of the property as would any prudent investor. In this way only can the company discharge its obligation to its security-holders who have placed their capital in its hands. Proceedings Under the Public Utility Holding Company Act.—The report, explains that in December, 1939, the 'company and its sub¬ sidiaries were granted wide exemptions from the. provisions of the Holding Company Act except in the case of future offerings of se¬ curities which may be made in the United States. In October, 1942, the company was formally reinstated as a party to proceedings under Section 11-b (2) (the so-called corporate simplifica¬ tion provision) of the Holding Company Act against the Electric Bond and Share Co. and its subsidiary holding companies. This action fol¬ lowed advice from the PubMc Utilities Division of the Securities and majority of nationals as officers directors; and stockholders' gnd Interest of amort, and Sheet Balance Invest, Cash bills—-. receivable Accounts current to the Com¬ pany Act to achieve simplification in the capital structure of this com¬ pany, to determine whether any orders should be issued with respect to payments of interest or principal on debt claims of Electric Bond and Share Co. and related matters.

Due principally to higher prices for leaf tobacco and increased Fed¬ eral income tax payments, net income of the company for the year ended March 31, 1943, showed a decline of nearlv 11% from the previous fiscal period, or to $6,930,933 from $7,784,135.

Improvement in the financial position of the company was revealed in the balance -sheet as of March 31, 1943, showing current assets of $82,066,049 compared 'with $62,197,298 a year earlier and current liabilities of $15,117,635 against $17,204,121 as of March 31. 1942. The rise in current assets reflected the increase in inventories to $70,569,578 from $53,143,337; in net accounts receivable to $8,219,378 from $6,520,261, and in cash on hand to $3,175,093 from $1,936,691. Decline in current liabilities principally reflects the absence of bank loans from the March 31, 1943, statement. On the like 1942 date $4,250,000 of notes due to banks was included.
