this company has been faced with serious
financial
problems. These problems have become more
acute as the
maturity of
.Its $5,235,000 debentures approached.
During the latter part of 1945,it was necessary for this
company to sell four of its
subsidiary com- '
.panies in order to provide funds to pay the
$2,489,000 of 5.50%-gold debentures, Series B,- which were to mature on
March 1, 1946.
The
other issue of debentures,
namely $2,7.56,000 of 6% gold
debentures,?
Series A, will mature on Dec.
1, 1946. In addition, no dividends have!
been paid- on the $7 cumulative first
preferred stock of the
company,
since March 1, 1932,

company has a ?
