Of Majestic Plea

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE securi.
ties and Exchange Commission
asked the Federal Court today to
discuss reorganization proceedings
Of the Majestic Radio & Television
Corp. on the ground that the petit
tion for reorganization under the
Chandler Act was improperly filed.
Judge John P. Barnes had set to-
day for ruling on a motion of
creditors for appointment of a re-
ceiver. He continued the case to
November 4 for arguments on the
point raised by the commission.
James B. Duggan, 8. E. c. counsel,
asked dismissal on the grounds that
the Majestic petition was filed under
chapter II Of the Chandler Act
although that provision of the law
Mr.. Duggan said, was not available
to the corporation.
A corporation with publicly owned
stock, he said, must file under chap
ter 10, which affords the s. e. G.
the right to enter the proceedings.
James A. Sprowl, counsel for
Majestic, said his position was that
the company could proceed under
either chapter.

Referring to increased demands
that may be made as result of war.
Mr.. Gormley reviewed experiences

could not be unloaded."
Between 1916 and 1918 the in

could be considered as due to the
war load, he said.
If such an increase" he added.
"were now to be handled as trans.
