The notes and option were issued in connection with financing ar¬

Under terms of a revolving credit agreement dated Dec. 31,
1945,
certain commercial banks agreed to make loans to the company of

One plan provided cash purchase at the rate of $22.50 a share.
.-The second plan provided that the Commission would pay stock¬
holders $1 a year for five years and thereafter 75 cents a year a

The stock would be redeemable by the Commission at any

Latex is the liquid form of rubber,
preserved for storage

for shipment for some time," Mr. Smith stated.
"This delay is caused
by the destruction of all former latex facilities and the difficulty of
procuring necessary equipment under present conditions."
