would receive $751; so share. Mr.
Trent replied that il the plan went
through Rodiek might consider himself
! certain to receive approximately that
much a share.
Mr.. Milverton presented an amend
ment to the proposed resolution which
was similar to the one adopted but
differed in that it provided that not
more than two thirds of subscriptions
to the stock of the new company
should be paid in Liberty Bonds, thus
assuring Onethird cash for distribu
ton among those who, like Rodiek
wanted cash in lieu of their holdings
Bonds Defended
The proposals of Mr.. Milvcrton were
discussed at length, his limitations or
Liberty Bonds meeting with strong
opposition but the other features being
unOpposed, his point on the advisable
ty Of insuring an early distribution
of proceeds was considered well taken
Relative to payments in bonds Mr.
Trent and Mr.. Hagens said there
should be no attempt made to dictate
to the custodian and that the imita
ton would appear to be such an at
tempt. Mr.. Trent added that whethe,
subscriptions could be paid in whole
or in part in Liberty Bonds would de
pend upon circumstances but that such
bonds would not be ;akPn If they haC
been bought in open market for the
purpose of use in payment for shares
Thus the discussion continued unit
noon when an adjournment was takCr
until two clock. During the recess
difficulties were pretty well adjusted
and when the meeting rrnSscmhlcd lit
tie time was lost before the MiIvertor
amendment was amended, adhcd to the
resolution and the resolution aS thu,
amended was passed. The agreement
was then signed by all save RodieE
and his ratification is expected before
