S. tem He described the proposed con¬ strength. ing efficiency and financial solidation as "definitely in installments the public interest and definitely in the interests of security holders of the companies involved." Mr. Machold introduced his testimony with a general statement regarding the the Niagara Hudson because of an order of the SEC under the so-called "death sentence" provisions of the Public Utility Holding Company Act. In addition, he said, The Federal Power Commission has issued an order requiring the Niagara Falls Power Co., a subsidiary, to write down its book values. by about $15,500,000, which, if upheld by the?.courts, will more than wipe out the surplus, of that company and its parent company, Buffalo, Niagara & Eastern Power Corp. o As a result of the order, the latter company suspended dividend payments in 1942 and Niagara Hudson Power Corp. rflso was subse¬ quently required to suspend the payment of dividends because of the qrder and the raising of other questions in the SEC proceedings. Approximately $130,000,000 of preferred stocks of the two companies are in the hands of the public. Accrued and unpaid dividends on Niagara Hudson preferred stocks on Nov. 1 will amount to about $3<Q00,000, and on Buffalo, Niagara & Eastern preferred stocks to about $6,600,000. A return is now being earned for stockholders, he continued, and the endeavor of the management is to remove the impediments which stand in the way of the payment of accrued divi¬ dends and distribution of future earnings to the owners of the com¬ panies. There are about 115,000 stockholders in the Niagara Hudson System companies, approximately 70,000 of whom are residents of New York State. • ; Mr. Machold said that the benefits which have accrued to the public disintegration physical integration of the System will be preserved and in¬ creased by the proposed consolidation.; He cited as' among the benefits achieved since formation of the Niagara Hudson System, in saving of $100,000,000 to consumers from rate reductions and the furnishing of an adequate uniformly dependable service throughout .' ; "/Lv V.LL-.1 v':.;V of the reorganization plan, he Approval : 1 stated, will accomplish the following purposes: It will eliminate the present threat of disintegra¬ tion of the System and the consequent loss of advantages to the gen¬ which have resulted from integration. It will assure to stockholders payment of dividend arrearages and permit of the pay¬ ment of regular dividends in the future. Through economies resulting from refunding the System's debts and eliminating separately operated companies, it will enable the consolidated company to meet the future expanding demands for electricity and to finance the cost thereof, and, when present excessive costs and taxes are reduced in the post-war eral the ' 1 public to consider further reductions of rates. It will do away with holding companies and result in the location of the executive as well as'all operating offices, within its territory. L.',.LL.:v Mr. Machold testified that;-since'- Niagara Hudson was organized in 3%% series due 1954, which will be retired at 102'A% and 102%, respectively, plus accrued interest to Oct. 19 in each case. E. L. Shea, President, explained the company would effect an annual Interest saving of $534,495.

Machold, President, announced on Sept. 20. The plan, designed to complete the electrification of the system's rural areas, will enable all customers whose farms meet the requirements of the War Production Board, to obtain electric service by paying a minimum monthly charge of $2. The announcement further went on to say, in part: "Rural electri¬ fication has made more rapid progress in New York during the past 13 years than in the entire previous history of the State, if the rate of growth within the territory served by the Niagara Hudson System may be accepted as a criterion. And well it may, for this area contains 68,000 of the State's 153,000 farms listed in the 1940 census. "To-illustrate the extent of this development, the Niagara Hudson Power System has made public a set of comparative figures showing the expansion of its farm business between 1929 and 1943; 1929 being -selected because that was the year when the separately operated comnanies in the area were merged into a single coordinated system. "These individual companies had fewer than 20,000 rural customers in 1929, as compared with the system's 51,000 last year. Moreover, the 1929 customers apparently used electric service for a very limited ; number of purposes, for their total purchases were only 11,000,000 kilowatt hours, while last year the total was 84,000,000, an increase rural liberalized line extension plan the of a p. 1175. • States Power Co.

North of a plan of reorgani¬ designed to effect compliance with the provisions of Section 11 (b). The proposed plan provides, among other things, that upon .its becoming effective an initial period of 60 days will be fixed within which common stockholders of North American may withdraw underlying securities upon surrender of their common stock and payment of their proportionate amount of the cost of retiring the North American senior securities. The plan then provides for the creation of four regional holding companies to which North Amer¬ ican will transfer its remaining holdings of securities in Union Electric, Washington Railway, Wisconsin Electric, Cleveland Electric and Pacific Gas, Thereupon the regional companies will assume the outstanding unpaid principal portion of the notes and North American's obligations thereon will terminate. However, the proposed issuance of the notes by North American is not dependent upon the consummation of the plan and the company requests that the note transaction be con¬ sidered separate and independent of the proposed plan. North American or the regional companies will have the right to prepay the notes without premium unless such prepayment is effected through other borrowings, in which event a premium is required in an amount which will result In a yield basis to the banks of V/2','0 from the date of prepayment to the respective payment dates of the Concurrently as'an example the falling off in commercial and kwh. in 1932, this total being only 37% of the System's present commercial and industrial load.
