ever probably will meet with opposi-
ion on the part of security holders.
Uncertainty and suspense are unfa-
.gorable factors on the trend of security
prices. Reduction Of the interest on
bonds to a point where the owner of
the security knows payment can be met
would have a most constructive effect
which undoubtedly would find ref1ec-

market price Of the security. This, in
turn, would more than offset the re-

Action Only Temporary.
A reduction in the interest rate to a
level that insures payment also would
eliminate the possibility of receiverShip
for a number of corporate debtors who
meet the full amount Of inter-

lesser amount.
The plan does not propose that the
interest rate be reduced permanently,

an Arrangement. of course, would have
to be agreed upon by the owners OF the
bonds and the arrangements OF each
