 More Since January 1

A survey of the Home Loan bond transactions participated in by the receiver for the Merchants Trust Co was submitted by Attor- ney Francis T. Reeves to Judge Arthur F. Ells in superior court to-day. The report shows that the receiver has acquired about $86.000 additional bonds since the first of the year.

 The report shows the receiver exchanged about S375,000 worth of bonds so far for $450,000 worth of savings accounts. Out of the total number of accounts offered for exchange, all but eight of the depositors took advantage of the offer.
 In the Naugatuck Bank & Trust Co receivership, Judge Ells re- served decision on the applicatino of the receiver, the Naugatuck Na- tional bank, asking permission to sell s56,O00 worth of Home Loan Bonds in order to pay depositors in cash.
