Appointment of a repre-

of the Reconstruction Finance Cor
poration, on RIGS offer of Is

considered at Los Angeles today in
a meeting of the district bondhold-

Chairman Evan T. HeWes Of the

of the board from conference
with bondholders, explained that
the committee voiced dissatisfaction
with the RFC offer. Its represent

Although dissatisfied with the

standing bonds, the committee did
not feel it would be fair to other

make an adverse recommendation
without further investigation, Hewes

today. The committee represents
