FINANCE LEFT
TO DIRECTORS
OF REFINERY
Stockholders Session Closes
Peacefully; Several Plans
Discussed.

Affairs of the America itefiuing
company had evidently reached a
peaceable stage Tuesday afternoon,
when the stockholders session,
opened the previous day. zane to a
close. Financing problems Ehich had
been scheduled to come brfore the
Tuesday meeting were not discussed.
and the talk of the stockholders was
that this will be settled in the di-
r%ectors' meeting.
\ group of stockholders are un-
derstood to have prepared 2 plan
whereby they will advance $4,000 TO
be used in clearing the Indebtedness
of the plant and in providing
operating capital. Details of the plan
were not announced at the meeting,
the whole question going oyer to the
directors.
The offers of loans by stock
holders TO the company which We're
started Monday night. totaled be-
tween $1,000 and $1,000 by Tues
day afternoon, according to Earl
Hustled. president.
Directors of the company had re-
ported that they had received sew
efal propositions regarding tue ptahL
and financing questions. They re-
fused an offer made BY Gordon
Campbell through his agents, the
Fidelity Finance company. The plan,
as advanced by Charles Biumhoft,
head of the Fidelity, was for the
formation of Il company with capital
stock of $1,000, 900. Gordon Camp
bell Kelvin syndicate units would be
transferred to stock in the company
on the basis OF 81 in shares in the
new company 70 each 81 par value
Of units. Gordon Campbell Kelvin
syndicate No. = units would be re
ceived on the basis of dollar for
dollar and the shares of the refining
company would be taken at 30 cents
on the dollar.
This would leave a surplus of
10000 shares, on which the FL
deity Finance company would ad-
vance $4,000 to clear the debts and
provide operating capital. The acre
age of the Campbell syndicates would
be drilled out to provide produc-
ton. Gordon Campbell would be
president of the combined companies.
Although discussed somewhat by
the stockholders, the Campbell offer
did not come up for action, the
stockholders evidently agreeing with
the directors on the question.
