10 Months $36,500,000—

made and delivered to the Government $36,500,000 in
radar and radio communications products in the ten , months ended
Oct, 31, and expects to produce and deliver approximately $45,000,000
worth of equipment to the armed services for the entire year, Ross
D; Siragusa, President, has announced.
These sales are the largest
in the company's history and compare with $16,000,000 for 1943.
The corporation has set a sales goal of approximately $38,000,000
for the first post-war year of unlimited production, which would com¬
pare with an output of approximately $12,000,000 in the last year of
civ.lian production immediately preceding the war, Mr. Siragusa dis¬
closed. ,'
* ■ V, [
■
"■
The
$38,000,000 production figure includes the domestic line of
radios,
refrigerators, electric ranges, and home, freezers plus export
and manufacturing of automatic record changers for other set makers,
Mr. Siragusa .said.
Of this output, a $30,000,000 volume is anticipated
for
merchandise bearing the Admiral brand, a $15,000,000 volume
in radio sales and an equal figure in home appliances.
Admiral has
established complete national distribution through approximately 70
companies.—V, 160, p. 1961.

was that of Auchincloss,
Parker & Redpath,
Their bid of 100.45 and
accrued interest being for bonds bearing interest at 11% rate, of 3%
has been accepted.
The cost of the proceeds on, this basis will be
approximately 2.97% per annum.' It is represented that the bonds
will not be offered publicly.
:
"
The net saving to result from the proposed refinancing is estimated
at $7,097,108. ' This is computed by deducting frpm the interest which

$7,097,108.
In addition, it is estimated that the Pennsylvania system
will benefit to the extent of approximately $556,000 through deductions

stated, this is to> be an initial step; jn a program
refinancing a part of the applicant's" outstanding
debt. In addition to the. $15,188,000 of extended first-ipprtgage 3 Vz'./»
bonds to be retired, the applicant's funded, debt also Includes $6,500,000
of first-mortgage 4% bonds of the Toledo, .St. Loyis, & ..Western RR.,
due April. 1, 1950, which are. redeemable on any interest,,date upon
6
months' notice at par and accrued interest, 'and $26,058,000 of
refunding-mortgage 5Vs'/t bonds, series A, due April 1, 1974, which
are
redeemable on any interest date,, upom 60 days' notice, at 107 ?/2
and accrued interest.
The program contemplates the redemption of
these bonds and the creation of a new series of refunding-mortgage
bonds which, the applicant believes,• can be issued at more favorable
interest rates than those borne by the outstanding bonds. This belief
is
based
upon
the favorable market conditions now prevailing and
the fact that the new refunding-mortgage bonds when issued would
be
a
first lien
upon
all the applicant's railroad properties.
It (is
pointed out that after the. retirement of the extended first-mprtgage
3¥2%
bonds; the applicant's funded debt, exclusive
equipment
obligations, will be reduced to $102,433,000 as of the end of the
current year/ representing a reduction of $48,654,000.in funded debt
since Jan. 1, 1937.
The interest payable at the rate' of - 3%% on
the
outstanding $15,188,000 of bonds amounts
to $531,580 a year,
while the interest to be paid on the proposed note -at 1.745%
wjll
be $174,500 for the first year and decreasing as the note is curtailed
each year, representing a reduction in interest initially of $357,080
a
year.
The premium on the bonds to be redeemed at 1%
will
amount to $151,880.

The 1944 provision of $14,510,000 for Federal, Stat% and foreign in¬
come and excess profits
taxes and renegotiation of profits under the
Federal Renegotiation Act is necessarily an estimate, but is considered
adequate to cover the income and excess profits tax liability (domestic
and "foreign) and such refund as-may. be required by the Navy Price
Adjustment Board when finally .determined.
For the year 1943 the
company agreed with the Navy Price - Adjustment Board to a refund
under the Renegotiation Act of $5,602,056, of which
$4,201,542 was
paid on Sept. 21, 1944, ..and the. balance is payable on or before. Dec.
15, 1944. < The net cost of this total refund, after taking Federal
and States taxes on income .'into consideration, amounted, to $987,746
and was adequately provided for in the accounts at Dec. 31, 1943.
At Sept. 30, 1944, dividends on the $2 10-year preference stock were
