Crawford said the management believed that if satisfactory
terms could be worked out for the purchase of the Thompson Aircraft
Products Co. plant in Cleveland, now owned by the Defense Plant

to first offer it to shareholders.
In the event of an offering soon,
Mr. Crawford indicated, it will probably be sold to underwriters.—

be.

1923-1931 the yearly volume of sales, other than refunding, was
approximately $1,400,000,000.
In subsequent years up to and includ¬
ing 1941, the annual average was about $1,000,000,000, but this figure
fhcluded heavy borrowing for refunding purposes.
The impact of
such financing during those years is indicated in the following figures
showing the volume of refunding negotiated in various years: 1941,
$434,509,900; 1940, $482,383,465; 1939, $195,079,000; 1938, $129,144,000;
1937, $190,678,795; 1936, $382,442,632; 1935, $365,150,304; 1934, $136,475,679; 1933, $37,080,049;1932, $87,000,429.
In connection with the
figure for 1933, it may be noted that the yedr in question was prob¬
ably the worst period in the history of municipal credit, defaults and
depression conditions having combined to reduce the total output of
both new capital and refunding issues to a. level of only $520,478,023.
As for municipal financing in the years beginning with 1942, the
diminutive totals reflect the war conditions which made it impossible
for States and communities to undertake new projects or even, to
make other than,nominal improvements or repairs.
Thus in 1942 the
total volume of bond sales was only $523,704,607 and this included

by the City of Los Angeles, Calif., Department of Water and
Power.
This issue was brought out to provide for the redemption ot
an equal amount of outstanding debt which is not subject to call until
December, 1945.
Pending that date, the city will reinvest proceeds
of the refunding issue in Treasury obligations, thus compensating in
some measure for dual interest that must be paid on the debt sched¬
uled to .be redeemed and the current loan.
Another community that elected to anticipate its refunding credit
needs in October was the City of Miami, Fla., which disposed of an
issue of $7,600,000 to provide for liquidation of outstanding obliga¬
tions on which the next immediate call date is July 1, 1945.
As for October borrowings for post-war capital projects, the
outstanding awards of that, nature included $15,000,000 by Portland,
Ore.; $14,000,000 Houston, Texas, and $9,450,000 by Baltimore, Md.
With regard to possible additional financing in the near future
in anticipation of post-war improvement programs, it may be ob¬
served that at the recent general election, voters in various States and
communities approved bond issue proposals amounting to more than
$225,000,000.
As for the results of balloting in the respective units
of government, these are being given in our regular State by State
