The sale, the statement continued, will be "pro rata and upon an
equitable basis," with the rate of distribution approximately one barrel
of whisky for each of the 250,000 common shares outstanding.
The whisky will be sold to the common stockholders at its cost to
the company,
which was estimated at $8,000,000.
This would make
the cost of whisky to the stockholders about $32 a barrel.
The sale
of the whisky at book value was defined by the company as equivalent
to approximately half the OP A ceiling
price value, which is about
$62.50 per barrel, excluding Federal and State excise taxes.
The whisky, the. announcement said,
is four years of age or less,
and most of the'inventory is stored at the company's principal plant
in Pekin, 111.
Other plants are at Philadelphia, Pa., Boston, Mass.

The
company
has filed an amendment with the Securities and

Under the amended plan company proposes to pay Bond & Share
$5,000,000 in cash on account of the note of Feb. 15, 1935, and for
the balance of $30,000,000 to issue to Bond & Share 3% notes in the
following principal amounts and maturing 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years,
respectively/from the closing date: First, second, third and fourth
year $3,000,000 each, and fifth year $18,000,000.
Under the original proposal filed on Sept, 14, last,
the company
planned to borrow $30,000,000 from a group of banks on its serial
notes/with interest not to exceed 3%
per annum.
The $5,000,000
cash payment is to be made out of funds in the company's treasury.
It is further proposed that Bond & Share will sell from time to time
bonds
having a total principal amount of $4,488,500 representing
12 issues of nine utility companies.
With the proceeds of the sale of
such bonds and the $5,000,000 cash which Bond & Share will receive

by the^ foregoing will appear
today, inasmuch as the week
ends Saturday and the Saturday figures are not available at time of going to press.
Accordingly, iri the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated.
In the elaborate detailed statement, however, which we present further below
we are able to give the final and complete results for the week previous—the week
ended Nov. 13.
For that week there was an increase of 14.7%, the aggregate of
clearings for the whole country having amounted to $8,419,187,377 against $7,341,612,246 in the same week in 1942. Outside of this city there was an increase of 44.4%,
the bank clearings at this center having recorded a gain of 23.5%,
We group the
cities according to the Federal Reserve Districts in which they are located and from
this it appears that in the New Xork District (including this city) the totals record
an
increase of 22.8% and in the Philadelphia Reserve District of 6.1%, but in the
Boston Reserve District the totals register a decrease of 2,7%.
In the Cleveland
Reserve District the totals show an improvement of 2.9%, in the Richmond Reserve
District of 7.5% and in the Atlanta Reserve District of 18.9%,
In the Chicago
Reserve District there is a gain of '3.6%; in the St. Louis Reserve District of 4.9%
and in the Minneapolis Reserve District of 10.7%. In the Kansas City Reserve District
the totals are larger by 5.7%, in the Dallas Reserve District by 6.5% and in. the
