This company on March 3 announced the sale of

its plant to Orange

Screen

Co. for $260,000.
Officials of the Seeley concern, which filed a
bankruptcy petition in Federal Court at Newark, N. J., last October,
said the sale places the company in a position to pay all its creditors.
The concern Usted $210,000 in liabilities when it filed the petition.
Referee Schenck on Jan. 28 authorized the company to dispose of Its
real estate.
He has set March 17 for hearing on arrangements to pay

the creditors.

With the retirement of the pre-'

preferred, cumulative preferred, preference and common stocks.
The details of the refunding program will be presented to the stock¬
holders at the special stockholders meetings in May1.
The plan will
result in a reduction in dividend requirements of the company and a
readjustment of its capital structure.
By means of the contemplated

disturbing the satisfactory relationship between the company and its
stockholders.
The company anticipates an exceptionally high rate of
exchange by its present preferred stockholders. The exchange program
will require the services of a large, well organized group of securities
dealers throughout the United Ftates.
Details of the financing and

The company has asked the California P.
