The following
year an extension was built to Butte, Montana.
This enabled the road
to serve the coal mines near Great Falls, the copper mining industry
at Butte, and the intervening winter wheat country.
Surmounting many difficult engineering problems, a route for the
third major segment of the road finally was surveyed and by Jan.,
1893, the road was extended across the Rocky Mountains via Marias
Pass (adjoining Glacier National Park) and through the Cascade Range
(over switchbacks until 1900, then via the original Cascade Tunnel),
leaching Everett and Seattle on Puget Sound.

Great Northern Railway and the Northern Pacific Railway jointly
acquired control of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy in 1901, and

W. L. Maxson, President, states in part:
Renegotiation proceedings for the year 1944 have not been con¬
cluded, and earnings,'previously reported for that year, as well as for
the 24 weeks ended June IT', 1945, are subject to possible adjustment
as
a .result
of such 'proceedings.

•
During this period of the current year the company4 has hah con¬
tracts terminated in the whole or in part, for the convenience of the
Government or customers, having an aggregate sales value of approxi¬
mately $7,960,000 for which
termination claims of approximately
$350,000 have been filed with additional termination claims of an
estimatedi $450,000 remaining to be filed.
Notwithstanding these
terminations, unfilled orders on hand at
June 17,
1945 represented by war production contracts and sub-con¬
tracts, amounted to more than $20,000,000.
This is-the largest back¬
log to be reported in the history of the company.
The company continues to have available for financing its War
production contracts the Regulation V-Loan concluded in January
1945. which,
in effect, provides a line of credit for such purposes
of up to $4,000,000 against which the borrowings as of June 17, 1945
amounted to $600,000."

per

electric, water and ice properties
located at La Grange, Texas, were not retainable with the natural
*, gas properties located at Austin, Galveston and Port Arthur, Texas, and
that the La
Grange properties must be divested by Peoples.
While
the Commission, held Peoples could not retain its interest in the farm
.business of Texas Public Service Farm Co., in view of the possibility of
future discovery of gas reserves on the
farm property, it permitted
the company to retain sub-surface rights..
The plan provides for the issuance of 278,748 shares of new common
stock ($8 part, plus cash, for its outstanding preferred, class A and
f class B common stocks.
Preferred stockholders would receive three
shares of new stock plus $13 in cash for each share of present preferred; class A and class B common stockholders would receive one: i fifth
share of the new stock for each share held. This would result
/;in distribution of 89.5,% of the new stock to preferred and 10.5% to
/common stockholders. ,;. '.

!
The Commission disapproved a proposed payment of a cash dividend
of $1 per share on the new stock on the plan's effectiveness.
It held
t such a payment was unfair, particularly in view of dividend arrearages
on the outstanding preferred of $25.60 Sept. 30, 1944.
The Commission
said it would approve the plan if amended within 30 days to eliminate
;•'! the proposed $1 dividend payment and increase the cash payment to

R.
Young,
Allan P. Kirby and
other business leaders, on
27 filed with the Federal Court in Philadelphia, composed of
Judge E'iggs, Judge Goodrich and Judge Maris, a proposal to pur¬
chase the entire sleeping car facilities of Pullman Inc. at a price of

approximately $75,000,000.
This proposal follows 2Vz years of futile
negotiations for sale between the Pullman interests and the railroads
since the entry of the Court's decree in the Government's anti-trust
suit directing Pullman Inc. to separate its sleeping car business from
its manufacturing business.
In its proposal; this business group commits itself to a vast expan¬
sion of the railway sleeping car service which will enable the railroads
to meet the competitive challenge of other forms of transportation,
notably air transport, and to develop the hitherto untouched travel
market composed of persons of modest means.

proposal are
