generally that under the remand it is our
and fully on the merits the question of allo¬
stockholders. Applicants maintain that the
only question presented by the remand is whether we considered the
preference rights attaching to the preferred stock in the event of
actual liquidation
to the extent that they may affect intrinsic or
market values. Prior to passing on these contentions, we will review
briefly the issues raised on the appeal from the order of April 1,
1947, and the decision of the Supreme Court.
Schwabacher decision—In the prior proceeding, interveners Schwabacher et al, contended that they were entitled under the laws of the
State of Michigan to the benefit of certain charter. rights, that in.
a
merger
proceeding under section 5 of the Interstate Commerce
Act ' this
Commission, under the plenary and exclusive jurisdiction
conferred on it by the act, was the one and only forum in which
such rights could be enforced; and that unless we adjudicated the
claimed rights and made appropriate provision for their enforcement
we would fail to perform
our lull statutory duty.
In. the report of April 1. 1947, the division concluded that, having
reached the factual conclusion that the terms and conditions pro¬
posed by the applicants were just and reasonable "performance of
our duty, in
respect to stockholders is complete, in our opinion, when

length the relative l

Act in such
proceedings. With respect to the division's conclusion that the Com¬
mission
did not have
exclusive jurisdiction to enforce interveners'
charter rights under Michigan law, and the finding that any settle-,
ment of such rights through negotiation or litigation in the courts
would not involve a burden of excessive expenditures, the Court said:
Iq its opinion, the Supreme Court discussed at
function and authority of Federal and State law in
approving
voluntary railroad
mergers, and our
section 5 and section 20a of the Interstate Commerce

has found that the liabilities
asse.rted by the appellants, if settled by litigation or negotiation, will
not
impair the 'carrier's ability to perform its service, but it has
not/found the assumption of such liabilities to be compatible with the
public interest under section 5 and section 20a, * *; *
"it appears to lis inconsistent with Ith'e Interstate Commerce Aot
for lthe Commission to leave claims growing out of the capital struc-1
ture of one of the constituent companies to be added to the obliga¬
tion's of the surviving carrier, contingent upon the decisiqn of some
other tribunal or agreement of the parties themselves. We think that
the'Commission must pass upon and approve all capital liabilities
which the merged company will assume or discharge as a result of
the'merger. * * * * We think the Commission was in error in assum¬
ing;; that it did not have, or was at liberty to renounce or delegate,
power,
finally to settle the amount of capital liabilities of the new
company and
the proportion or amount thereof which each class of.
stockholders should receive on account of its contributions to the new

In
in a merger as to
justness and reasonableness, it is not the promise that a charter made
to him-but the current worth of that promise that governs, it is not
what he once put into a constituent company but what value he is
contributing to the merger that is to be made good.

the Commission stated:
"Rule U*50 is a rule of general application
based on weighty considerations of public policy, and exceptions from
its requirements should be granted only under unusual circumstances
where adequate showing is made that competitive bidding would not
be appropriate.
No such showing has here been made.
Wc see no
peculiar facts in the history of
New Hampshire's earnings which
cannot
be
fully
understood by any interested underwriter without
prolonged indoctrination.
The recent drought in New England and its
effect upon hydro-electric operations in the area are already gener¬

such matters.

of April 1,' 1947, division 4 found 'that any settlement
dissenting stockholders based on State law through
negotiation
or litigation in the courts which might result in the
dissenting stockholders receiving settlements in excess of those pro¬
vided for in the merger agreement would not involve a burden of
excessive expenditures. This,
the court held was error, and that it
was
incumbent
upon
us
to
find all capital liabilities which the
merged company will assume or discharge as a result of the merger
will- be- compatible
with the public interest. Since we are of the
opinion that
the dissenting stockholders should not be given any
better treatment than has been accorded other holders of stock of the
same
class, nor should they be permitted to withdraw their capital
from the
company
resulting from the merger, except in accordance
with the terms of the merger,.the merged company will not be re¬
quired to assume capital liabilities in excess of those contemplated
.by .the merger agreement,- Division 4 previously found in the report
of April
1, 1947, that the assumption of capital liabilities contem¬
plated by the merger agreement would be in the public interest, and
we
now affirm
such finding. Accordingly, we consider it unnecessary
to treat of this matter further herein.

made to holders of the Pere - Marquette
Marquette continued as a separate company,
that, in view of the facts of record, all
arrearages on the prior preference and preferred stocks would be paid
-and- that dividends would- eventually be resumed on the ■ common. It
was
the prospect of ultimate payment of these arrearages and the
resumption of payment of dividends on the common, rather than any
possibility of actual liquidation that weighed heavily in giving in¬
trinsic
or
market value to the several classes of Pere Marquette
stock, whether that company were to continue its separate existence
or
merge with some other company.
The record shows further that
the holders of only a small percentage of Pere Marquette stocks were
willing to speculate on the possibility of obtaining full liquidation
preference under the company's charter. Market opinion as reflected
in market quotations discounted heavily any such -possibility;" Under
these
circumstances
little
weight

Certain of the interveners argue that since the Court also discussed
the principles as to how the apportionment in
the merger exchange
should be made,, it intended by its remand that we should reconsider
all relevant
factors applicable to the justness and reasonableness of
the* qierger agreement, despite the fact that the only specific question
before the Court other than the question of our jurisdiction was the
weight to be given to charter rights under State law. In this connec¬
tion,-.interveners Schwabacher et al. contend that we should hold a
further hearing to supplement the record by current financial data,
and to permit them to present expert testimony and other valuation
proof. They argue that in the prior proceeding, they apart from their
contention that we possessed plenary and exclusive jurisdiction, main-'
rained that the measure of the equities of the preferred
stock, in¬

of
unpaid
dividends, had been taken into

concerning liquidation do not survive the
decision we are not to consider these rights
as if actual liquidation
has occurred. Nor do we understand that
any'of the interveners contend to the contrary.
As the court said:
#
congress has made no provision by which minority stock¬
holders, dissatisfied with a proposed railroad merger, may block it or
compel retirement of their capital. » * * And since Congress dealt
with the subject of stockholders' consent, its failure
to provide for
withdrawal of nonconsenting capital cannot be considered an over¬
sight to the supplied by us. A part of the capital dedicated to a rail¬
road
enterprise cannot withdraw itself without
authorization any
more than all of the capital can withdraw itself and abandon the rail¬
road without approval.
It must submit to regulations and to read¬
justments in the public interest on just and reasonable terms.
Consequently, any value that can be placed on the liquidation
rights of the dissenters must be only one that reflects the factual
probability or improbability of an actual liquidation taking place at
some
particular date. The report of April 1, 1947, shows that the
Pere Marquette
was one of the essential transportation facilities of
the country, and could not have been dissolved, liquidated, or wound
up
without serious disadvantage to the public interest. The record
also shows that the Fere Marquette existence could not have been
terminated at any time short of an abandonment of all of the rail¬

considered to the extent that they may

In. his

question of the
justness and reasonableness of the terms of exchange of securities
under the merger agreement, our order reopening the proceeding was
.for such reconsideration as may be required by the opinion of the Su¬
preme Court.
In our view, the Court has directed us to reconsider
the report and order of April 1, 1947, primarily to make certain that
the
liquidation rights attaching to the preferred stock were con¬
sidered to the extent that they may affect intrinsic or market values.
Also, we must find, in the event that the Chesapeake & Ohio will
assume
capital liability in excess of those proposed by the merger
agreement, that such assumption will be compatible with the public
interest;

interveners would be both unnecessary and inappropriate. Consequently,

clearly contemplates merger as a step in

are entitled to an equivalent.
It would be inconsistent to allow State
law to apply a liquidation basis to what federal law designates as a
basis for continued public service.

District of 10.8% and in the
Philadelphia

by 8.6% and in the
