The board of directors of the United
States Steel Company has not yet de-
Cided whether it will or Will not put the
preferred stock conversion plan into ef-
feet. 1t is understood, however. that II
is almost certain to decide for the plan
very shortly The majority Of the execu-
tive committee favors it.
The company can use 70 advantage the
money raised by the plan despite the fact
that surplus earnings are very large
The syndicate commitments practically
compel the company in fairness to carry
out its original plan. These are strong
arguments and should govern the de-
cision.
Assuming the plan 20 go through in
its original form. each holder or pre-
fcrred stock will have the right and to
convert 40 per cent of his holdings into
: per cent bonds al par; 10 subscribe at
gar to new per cent bonds to the
amount of 20 per cent of his holdings.
re can do one or both of these things
It will certainly pay preferred stock
holders to convert stock into bonds. as
the bonds will sell above the stock by
probably several points. Probably many
stockholders viii not care 20 subscribe
for new bonds and pay cash for them.
The syndicate will. however. take care
of that. It is presumed that the right TO
convert viii be transferable.
In order TO find the value of the rights
at any given price, deduct from the price
Of the new United States Steel bonds the
price Of United States Steel preferred.
The rights for Steel preferred will be
worth two-thirds of the difference.
