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 contend ^ duty' to consider anew to dissenting cations a further 4 Division as stockholders of the same class are that all make certain treated alike." we treatment of that concluded a said that settling litiga¬ standpoint of such which such »_ expendi¬ . ■ , length the relative l regulating and functions under 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 "The Commission, we as have seen, entity." ... . law, the Court said: 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. * ? . .. ?. * ' Consequently, the liquidation preferences were . only, one factor in \ valuation rather than determinative of amounts pay¬ With the asserted claim under State appraising a stockholder's position respect to * * able. contemplates merger as continuing the enterprise, it follows that what Michigan give these dissenters on a winding-up or liquidation is except insofar as it may be reflected in current values they are entitled to an equivalent."

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¬ ally known to those who. make it their business to keep abreast of such matters. No company can ever expect to enter the financial markets with a perfect score on every point, past, present and future. Nor can it be demonstrated that a company which has an earnings 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. •.? v IA of offering price will bo the denying the , interim the for terms.

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.

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¬ cluding accumulations of unpaid dividends, had been taken into account neither in the merger plan nor subsequently in the report of April l, 1947, and that in order to enable them to support#what.they consider to be the proper theory of the case, a further hearing should hearing. ished law Michigan a to 169, corporation laid be 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 the line. under the court's those rights are to be affect intrinsic or market values. what the appellants are given in this plan is just and reasonable, the record indicates that it may • have declined to consider these claims, even if they are. found to have' some effect on the intrinsic value of the stock because it lacked jurisdiction. Under these circumstances, we, cannot be sure that in arriving at its conclusion that the plan' Vas just and reasonable it ! did; not exclude some factors that it should consider under the views " set out in this opinion. We therefore reverse the judgment below and remand the case to the Commission for reconsideration under the principles herein expressed." ; \ //.'?;/ v v/■/. As we read the opinion, the Supreme Court laid down the prin¬ ciples that this Commission is the exclusive and plenary forum under sections 5 and 20a of the Interstate Commerce Act independent of all other State or Federal authority, and that any rights granted to stockholders on a winding-up or dissolution, do not survive a merger agreement approved by the requisite number of stockholders and ap¬ proved by us as just and reasonable, but that we, in determining" whether, a plan is just and reasonable, must consider such rights "* Vice-President Pitt, Portland This '• Maine, these of concluding the Court said: * :■' * In making that determination, While consideration to these questions.- merger, question not within our province to decide." The division also its conclusion did not preclude the dissenting stockholders from their controversy with the applicants through negotiation and tion-in the courts. Being concerned, however, • from the of public interest as to the effect of the ultimate settlement claims, the division explored the various bases upon claims might be settled, and arrived at the conclusion that "consum¬ mation of the merger will not involve a burden of excessive in charge of industrial division, and in charge of finance, have been elected Vice-President Woods, J. directors.—V. submission of briefs upon the visions J Smith, law RIGHTS—The liquidation rights of the Pere Mar¬ stock are described above in the margin of the report. rights entitle holders of the preferred to preferential treatment of a particular nature in the event that a liquidation oc¬ curs, but only in the event of actual liquidation.

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; To broaden the issues under these views ..as urged by the interveners would be both unnecessary and inappropriate. Consequently, While returned Woods Mr. war, company's Industrial division, which of. automobile radios to the motor sale Vive-President clearly contemplates merger as a step in continuing the enterprise, it follows that what Michigan law might give these dissenters on a winding up or liquidation is irrelevant ex¬ cept insofar as it may be reflected in current values for which they 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.
