feature of the preferred stock
would
have
had
a
call on
the future prosperity of
the combined
t nterprise.
It was felt that the Nickel Plate preferred stockholders
would
have
preferred
to
have
their claims settled
in a tsx-free
exchange of
that character rather than place their reliance upon
ultimate liquidation of dividend arrearages in cash—a process which,
if accomplished at all, will take many years of Nickel Plate prosperity.
''Chesapeake and Ohio plans to renew its offer to merge or con¬
solidate
with
the
Pere
Marquette on
the same terms of exchange
as
those approved by the board of directors of
the Pere Marquette
at
its meeting on Sept. 18.
"Elimination
of
the
Nickel
Plate from
the proposed plan leaves
the status of the Wheeling & Lake Erie uncertain at this time because
the
Nickel Plate, which owns a 33%
interest in the Wheeling, has
indicated a desire to negotiate for the purchase of the Chesapeake &
Ohio's holdings of Wheeling stock."
Opposition
to the proposed unification of the C. & O. and the
Nickel Plate developed openly on Oct. 13 when Donner Estates. Inc.,
which
represents
approximately 60,000 preferred shares of Nickel
Plate out of the 360,577 shares outstanding, said the stock

HISTORY. AND BUSINESS—Corporation was incorporated in Dela¬
ware
Sept. 23, 1936, and acquired all of the right, title and interest
formerly of Grigsby-Grunow Co. in and to the trademarks, "Majestic""
and
"Mighty
Monarch of the Air"
and other trademarks, trade
names,
copyright, patents and patent applications.
Corporation was '
reorganized in October, 1939.
Since
1937, Majestic has manufactured all its radios, its
manu¬
facturing operations being relatively simple, consisting primarily of
the assembly of parts produced by others to its specifications.
Thus
condensers, coils, speakers,
transformers, tubes, resistors and other *'
parts and cabinets are purchased from other companies many of
which also supply such parts to other radio set manufacturers.
:<
From June,
1942, when manufacture of all civilian radio receiving
sets was halted by Government order, to the unconditional surrender
of Japan in August,
1945, all operations of Majestic were for the •
U.
S.
Government on direct
contracts or as sub-contractor, such
operations consisting, except for crystal manufacture, as in its peace¬
time business ' principally of the assembly of parts produced by others
to
Majestic'sj specifications or to Government specifications.
Government officials
have agreed to accept payment of $62,500
less applicable tax credits of $25,000 in full settlement of all liabilities
of Majestic for Government work for the year ended May 31,
1944.
Based upon the formula used by the Renegotiation Board in deter¬
mining the amount of excess profit as defined by the Renegotiation.

products

and other

of

manufactured products, the company dis¬
tributes equipment and supplies manufactured by others which are
used largely by the oil and gas producing industries.
The cessation of all hostilities resulted in the cancellation of the
greater
portion of the company's contracts for war production.
During the month of Aug. 1945, approximately $37,000,000, constitu¬
ting approximately 75% of the war contracts on hand at the begin¬
ning of the month, were terminated.
Company expects to realize at
least the inventory value of the material on hand for the fulfillment
of such contracts at the date of such cancellations.
As
a
protection against the cancellation of war contracts, the
company arranged in
1943 for a $20,000,000 three-year bank credit
with seven banks, expiring Dec. 31, 1946, and carrying a 70%
guar¬
antee by the War Department under the so-called "VT Loan Regu¬
lations."
In
1945 this credit was reduced to $10,000,000,
and no
indebtedness is now outstanding thereunder,
INSTALMENT BANK LOANS—Company has entered into agreements
dated Sept. 10, 1945 with each of seven banks to borrow an aggre¬
gate of $12,000,000 under 12-year term loans, $8,550,000 of which is
payable in instalments before final maturity.
The interest rate ranges
from 2%
on instalments due
on or prior to April 1, 1956, to 2%%
on
the
instalment due Oct. 1, 1957, and the average interest rate
is 2.358%.

Calculating the investments in United States & International Securi¬
Corp. and in Credit & Investment Corp. at their indicated values,
based on underlying assets, securities without quoted market prices at
cost of $713,030, and all other securities at market quotations, the
net assets of the corporation had an indicated value on Sept. 30, 1945,
of approximately $49,145,954, which is equivalent to approximately $285
per share of first preferred stock.
The stockholders adopted, at a special meeting held on Oct. 15, 1945,
a charter amendment, which has become effective, reducing the number
of authorized shares cf first preferred stock from 250,000 shares to
172,319 shares, reducing the annual dividend rate on the first pre¬
ferred stock to $4.50 per share, cumulative from and after Oct. 1, 1945,
and granting to the holders of first preferred stock one vote on all
subjects for each share of first preferred stock held.

Government insurance, and $900 million to their equity in private

At the same time
they reduced their holdings of corporate securities by $300 million.
The $4.9 billion increase in cash and deposits was at a somewhat
lower rate than in the previous quarter. Ii$ spite of the heavy tax
payments which showed their effect on total liquid saving, time and
savings deposits increased by the record amount of $2.3 billion, a
continuation of the trend established in 1944. Individuals' demand
deposits increased $2.1 billion, about the same rate as in the last
quarter of 1944. Currency showed a much smaller increase of ap¬
