management of the company and the
election of its directors.
It is further alleged that, the purpose of the
purported amendment is to effect in the-voting trustees in their indi¬
vidual capacity, continued control of the business after the expiration
of the voting trust agreement on July 1, 1945, and that said action was
motivated by the knowledge that many of the voting trust certificate
holders for the preferred stock are dissatisfied with the management.
The complaint asks for an order declaring the action of the voting
trustees null and void and seeks their removal as well as removal of
the directors because of alleged breach of their fiduciary duties.
The
bill also requests a termination of the voting trust agreement arid dis¬
tribution of the stock to certificate holders, and damages.—\f. 160,

petition filed by the trustees on which a hearing was to have
place Aug, 28 asserted that the New Jersey court opinion hold¬

adjudication concerning the New
Jersey State tax claims has been postponed until Sept. 18 by Federal
Court Judge Guy L. Fake/
■
The road's trustees, Sheldon Pitijey and Walter P. Gardner, contend
that the recent ruling of the New -Jersey Court of Errors and Appeals
does
not
invalidate
the railroacti tax settlement acts of
1941 and
1942 as they concern thp Jgrs'ey' Central.
A representative
of Staffe Attorney General Walter B. Van Riper
appeared in court Aug. 28 to request that the trustees' position be
dismissed as far as it affects the tax problem, on the ground that
the State
cannot be sued.

not be fair

equitable to stockholders."

that when the European war ends all limitations
will be removed, Studebaker has already put,
in orders for standard machine tools which should be delivered about
the middle of November, it was revealed by Harold S. Vance, Chairman
of the Board.
These tools will replace those taken from assembly lines
to make room for war work.
,
With additional capacity in new. machine tools, Studebaker can re¬
sume car production
without interfering with current manufacture of
airplane engines, Mr. Hoffman declared.
Mr. Vance added that a sur¬
vey had been
made of auto accessory manufacturers and tentative
arrangements made with alternate suppliers in case those chosen first
are still filling
war contracts.
This problem is simplified, Mr. Vance
explained, by the fact that 80% of Studebaker's present subcontractors
were associated with it in automobile work prior to 1942.
