Aireon Manufacturing Co.—Gets $2,000,000 Loan—
Reconstruction Finance Corp. has approved a $2,000,000 loan to
above
company,
it was announced on March 20 by Harold L.
Pearson, newly elected President.
'
Mr. Pearson, former Vice President and Treasurer of Montgomery
Ward
&
Co.,
stated the loan opened the way for resumption of
operations, halted since Dec. 1, 1946.
The $2,000,000 advanced by
the RFC will not be wholly free for
working capital. About $940,000 will be used to pay bank loans due
since
last
Fall and
$400,000 will be set aside for taxes due the
Government. >•//>'■■■ /
:
■••• > ■■/'/■■v •>>•'
'/■
"As it
stands now,"
said Mr. Pearson,. "only about $650,000 of
the $2,000,000 will be available to use which is less than the com¬
bined
accounts
payable of $767,000
and accrued expenses—mostly
payroll—of $179,000."
'<•
The
outlook is promising, Mr. Pearson said. He stated that tbe
nearly $8,000,000 back'og of orders for coin music boxes is more
than the plant's capacity to produce in the next 12 months.
"Production should start within the next 60 days and shipments
will be made during May," said Mr. Pearson.—V. 165, p. 933. '.t

through a local agent. Corporation plans to open new offices in
Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington durnig 1947.
The industry in which the corporation is primarily engaged is part
of the international air express business. Its activities in this field
consist ot\ the forwarding of air
exports and the clearance of air imports through customs and their trans-shipment. The corporation is
also engaged indirectly in the handling of surface exports and imports.

opposed
to
the creation of
non-voting stocks. It has, however, become con—
vinced that other conditions
may exist in a given case which warrant
the listing of a
stock-despite the absence of voting rights, .y • " ^
The Exchange therefore has
modified its former rigid policy.- Under
its modified
policy the exchange will consider in each application for
the
listing of non-voting stocks the reasons
underlying the with¬
holding or restriction'of voting rights. The committee on
listing; will
investigate the proportionate investment represented by the

Referring to Pittsburgh Consolidation Coal
Co., Mr. Humphrey said:
is our hope that this
outstanding coal company in which we are
so
interested, which is well fortified not
only financially but with
ample and excellent reserves of coal in
the ground, may so
develop its
resources and
equip its operations with the
very latest machinery and
improvements and serve its customers SO well that
if
so
rnn
well that it can 'meet the
fh»
severest corirvn+<f1"'"

DOMESTIC PETROLEUM
INDUSTRY IN 1946—Prior to the end
Of
the war, it was the
general opinion in
the petroleum
industry and
elsewhere that there would
be a sharp curtailment of
production and
consumption of petroleum for a
year or more
following the end of the
"war.
Such
predictions, however, proved to be
incorrect, and instead
of a reduction
there was a
constantly expanding demand for civilian
use, whlcn resulted in a
record year for the
petroleum industry.
Crude oil production
(including natural gasoline and allied products)
•veraged about 5,070,000
barrels daily in 1946.
This represented an
Increase of
approximately 70,000 barrels, or
1.4%, above the daily
average in 1945 and was
approximately 1,000.000 barrels daily, or 24.5%,
above the
prewar peak year of
1941,
More crude oil was produced
and runs to
stills were greater in
1946 than in any previous
total
year and
refinery production was at an
all-time peak.
