be avoided under the new legislation.
What these new laws mean to the
business recovery Of the country can
be imagined when it is realized that
vast sums are impounded In connec-
ton with buildings and companies
that can pay part Of their interest,
but not all of it or can meet interest,
but not sinking fund charges. Also it
should be borne in mind that the re-
adjustments or reorganizations of
these corporations are all to be under
the supervision of the courts and
hence do not come under the require
ments of the Federal securities act,
requiring registration and all sorts of
hindrances to refinancing.
Two-Thirds Needed.
Once the bill becomes law, a group
of security holders can get together
and petition the court to consider the
plan. Then steps to get the necessary
two-thirds would be taken, after
which the, reorganization plan would
be put into effect. The formula can
not ignore the dissenting stockholders
or creditors because provision must
be made for compensating them equit-
ably The essential difference be-
tween past and future procedure is
that the dissenters are given certain
forms of compensation which they
must choose but they cannot refuse
to go along together and. If they do,
then the court issues a decree enab-
ling the consenting two-thirds to go
ahead. and this compels acceptance
by the minority.
One of the interesting aspects of
the problem is that Federal courts
which usually have not had much 10
do with corporate reorganizations, as
most Of these have usually been in

creditor can block or hold up for
nuisance price any reorganization
plan. Rival protective committees
have been known to organize for the
purpose of being bought off" Rather
than go through the intricate steps
necessary to bring about reorganiza-
ton, many corporations remains in
receivership indefinitely.
The House has passed the bill pro-
viding for corporate reorganization
and Senate committee has reported
it to the floor, where it is part of the
unfinished business of the Upper
House. President Roosevelt wants it
passed and Senator Robinson, Demo-
cratic leader, has given assurance of
his intention to press the bill for
passage. AS a matter of fact the
formula for railroad and corporate
reorganizations and the bill govern
ing municipalities that wish to read
just their debt were originally part of
a single bill which passed the House
under the Hoover administration but
got tangled up in the Senate. Now

that each phase has been acted upon
separately-and, indeed, the most
controversial provisions-there Is vir-
tually no opposition to the bill which
deals solely with corporate structures
Some idea of the Importance of the
bill may be gained when it is under
stood that the new law would give
bondholders and security holders of
all kinds the opportunity to modify
tndentures or trust agreements, to ex-
tend the terms of loans or change
the interest rates and do any and all
things which two-thirds of any such
class of creditors may desire.
Court Approval Necessary.
Approval of the Federal courts is,
Of course, necessary, but it would no
longer be possible for one-third in any
group of security holders to block the
plan. Indeed, once tWo-thirds assent
will have been obtained, minorities
probably will fall in line even though
the court gives them full opportunity
for a hearing in which to present
their objections
The original measure, sponsored
by Messrs. McKeown, La Guardia
and Somers in the House and by Sen
ator Hastings in the Senate. has been
changed in many details. but the prin-
ciple remains the same as it was when
sponsored by Solicitor General Thacher
of the Hoover administration, who
rendered an opinion upholding the
constitutionality of all these debt re-
vision plans as coming under the
broad grant of power given Congress
to make uniform laws with respect to
bankruptcies Indeed, bankruptcy pro-
ceedings as hitherto known are not
necessary and in many instances may

HELM COMEBACK
. SEEMS DEFEATED.
Has Only Outside Chance
/ Even to Enter Democratic
I Primary for House.
BY the Associated Press.


BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May s.
"Cotton Tom" Heflin, a stormy figure
in Congress for 26 years, apparently
has tripped up on the political come
back trail over which he sought to
return to a seat in the House Of Rep
Tesentatives.
The fiery Alabaman, striving to un-
seat Representative Miles B. Allgood
of the fifth district, had only an out
side chance today even to enter a
run-off for the Democratic nomina-
tion. On the face of nearly complete
returns from Tuesdays primary, he
was last in a three-man race.
: With only four boxes missing, the
count stood: 1910 for Allgood, ll,17o
for Mai. Joe Starnes of GuntersVllle.
and 1O,597 for Hef1in.
Hobbs Holds Lead.
In two boxes rested the apparent
fate of Representative Lamar Jeffers
in the fourth district, as complete
but unofficial figures from the other
counties gave his opponent, Judge
Samuel F. Hobbs of Selma, lead
of 876 votes.
The two missing boxes were in An
niston, Jeffers' home, and were large
ones, but in that county Hobbs has
slightly better than to with the
incumbent.
Revised figures showed the veteran
George Huddleston, victor in many
battles for his ninth district seat,
lacking a majority over Walter Brow
er. runner-up, and his two opponents.
Returns from 1874 boxes out OF 235
in the district gave Huddleston 1856,
Brewer 1851, Steadham Acker 6,olo
and M. B. Grace 633.
The remaining boxes were large

remedial legislation remaining is that
which will enable the stockholders or
