The bill is designed to correct GER

which heretofore existed where some
court decisions barred many corpora

admitted into bankruptcy in another

Of 1867 which has been fully settled
by decisions of the courts. 1t pro-
Vides further that in any compromise
proceedings il win not be necessary
to have an adjucaition where a com
promise is affected thereby removing
the stigma of bankruptcy which all
