An effort was made to
investigate It.
After necessary arrangements
had been completed it was discovered that the alleged advance was in
patent conflict with the Sperry automatic pilot; already in use in Jthe
United States.
It j& therefore not true and is misleading to allege that
Bendix did not obtain the objective sought in this matter.
"Throughout the years preceding this war, thq intent of Bendix in
its dealings with companies in foreign nations was known to our Army
and Navy.
The result is clearly reflected in the hundreds of different
types of equipment for aviation, ground warfare, marine warfare and
communications which have been developed by Bendix engineers
in
closest cooperation with the arrned services, and which are now helping
to win the war against the Axis.
Many of these instruments were de¬

Company—Incorporated under Mississippi laws on Nov. 10, 1938, for
period of 99 years, for the purpose of acquiring, pursuant to a plan
reorganization duly approved by the ICC, the business and proper¬
ties, including leasehold interests, of Gulf, Mobile & Northern RR.,
organized in 1916,' and of Mobile & Ohio RR., organized in 1848. This
reorganization and consolidation of previously competing railroads be¬
effective in September; 1940. ". At the time of the reorganization
GM&N was *a solvent company, and had fully earned its fixed charges
all but three of the years 1931-1940, inclusive, and accordingly its debt
assumed undisturbed by the present company and its capital stock
converted into capital stock of GM&O. The M&O, formerly con¬
trolled by Southern Railway Co., had been in receivership since 1932,
and in the reorganization its fixed interest debt, except equipment obli¬
gations, was substantially scaled down and its capital stock was not
recognized.
As a result, on consummation of the reorganization, the
initial fixed interest debt of GM&O amounted to approximately 35%
than the total of its predecessors and its initial fixed charges
amounted to about 40% less than the combined annual fixed charges
its predecessors.
At the present time the company is qualified to

3V2& will be called for
redemption so that the debt reduction can be accomplished this year.
Completion of this financing will bring Nickel Plate's non-equipment
debt down to $102,433,000 as of the end of the year, compared with
$151,087,000 at the beginning of 1937, making a total reduction of $48,654,000, or 32%, in the eight-year .period.
The plan for early retirement of the 3'/2s in the manner contemplated
is designed to lay the foundation for a
refunding operation under
which it is hoped a new series of approximately $42,000,000 of lowinterest-rate refunding mortgage bonds, which would then be a first
mortgage on the entire system of approximately 1,700 miles, may be
substituted for the $6,500,000 of first 4s of 1950, the $26,058,000 of
refunding 5'/2s of 1974, and the $10,000,000 collateral loan.
The 4s
of 1950 can be redeemed at par but only upon an interest date follow¬
ing six months' notice.
The refunding 5V2s can be redeemed at 107V2
on
an
interest date following GO days' notice.
"
The company further announces that "upon completion of the trans¬
actions now proposed, it is hoped that the $59,875,000 of refunding 4 Vis
of 1978, which will then also be a part of the first mortgage on the
entire system, can be refunded at a lower rate of interest."
