Preferred Arrearaqes
Of Utility Concerns

Action Necessary for
Many Firms
BY the Associated Press.

by tne Associated PreSS.
Robert E. Healy, acting chairman
of the Securities Commission, said
Today something has got to be done
sooner or later" about utility holding
companies which have allowed pre-
ferred dividends to accumulate.
There are dozens of companies
in the holding company field where
arrearages on preferred dividends
have piled up from three to five
and even eight years"-Healy said
in an interview.
S. E. C. statistics show that on
January /, 1888, 48 of 158 registered
holding companies had preferred
stock arrearages amounting to
about $336,0O0,0O0. The total par
value of these stocks on which ar
rearages have piled up was about
81 1880 100000.
Two or three companies, Healy
said, are trying voluntary reorgani-
zation to solve the arrearage prob
lem.
They are taking an intelligent
approach" he asserted.
Asked what action the S. E. C.
might take to have companies pay
up arrears, Healy replied: "One
can't generalize about possible ac-
ton. There are too many differ
ences as between specific COM
panieS"

Steel Rate Estimated
Al asa Per Cent,
Down 1.6Points
Institute Report Cites
30.7 Per Cent Pace
Of Year Ago
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, May 15.-Operations
in the steel industry for the current
week will decline 16 points to 45.4
per cent of capacity, compared with
At per cent last week, the American
Iron & Steel institute estimated
today.
A month ago operations were at
the rate of 500 per cent of capacity.
while year ago they were 30.7 per
cent
The decline predicted for this week
is the seventh consecutive weekly
drop in output and carried opera
tlons in the industry to the lowest
level, with one exception, since last
September II. At that time output
sank to an estimated 45.3 per cent of
capacity.
In the final week of 1888 the
figure dropped to 1873 per cent, but
Christmas and New Year holidays
figured prominently in the decline
and activity rebounded nearly II
points the next week.
CLEVELAND, May IS (P.-Al-
though overshadoWed by unsettlo-
ment in prices of f1at-rolled prod
ucts, the recent downward trend in
steel demand and production is
meeting increased resistance, the
magazine Steel reported today.
The national steelmaking rate,
nevertheless, declined 2 points last
week to At per cent of capacity, a
new low for the year. The publica-
ton said this decline was caused
almost entirely by an 8-point drop
at Pittsburgh and was Influenced
partly by the bituminous coal situa-
ton. A moderate stimulus in steel
orders and operations may be looked
for with partial resumption of min
ing in prospect, it asserted.
Price cutting on sheets and strip
was reported as fairly general after
being localized in the Detroit area
for several weeks.
Outstanding in last weeks market
was increased demand from farm
equipment and road machinery
builders. Tin plate production was
sustained at 10 per cent. Automo-
tive buying, recently at a low ebh,
was expected to turn upward with
additional purchases of 1910 model
material.
