Consolidated Aircraft
Orders 100 Per Cent
Stock Dividend
Company Also Votes 81
Gosh Payment to Holders
Or Record Sept. 26
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PTess.
SAN DIEGO, Calf. Sept. IT,
Declaration of a 100 per cent stock
dividend and a cash dividend of 50
was announced yesterday by di-
rectors of the Consolidated Aircraft
Corp.
The cash dividend will be payable
on September 80 to stockholders OF
record on September 26. The divi-
dend in common stock will be avail
able TO holders of record on Octo-
ber l.
The action followed Mondays
meeting of Consolidated stockhold-
ers at which a company charter
amendment was approved increasing
the authorized common stock from
100000 to 100000 shares.
Although the increased authori-
zation was voted, company officials
said they could see no necessity for
issuance of additional stock at this
time except that required for the
stock dividend.
The 81 dividend brought the total
cash payment of the company for
the year to $4 per share of common
stock. The first dividend was paid
last June 80.
The amendment affecting the in
crease in stock eliminated the re-
mainder of the company's author
lied preferred stock All but 5l4
shares of this issue were converted
into common before the redemption
deadline last month.
The stock dividend was on the
645, 1877 shares of common stock now
outstanding. and is payable in one
share of common stock of 81 par
value
The company has a backlog of
more than s750,000 900 in defense
orders in land and seaplane bomb
ers. Company officials said the
stock increase was intended to rep
resent more adequately the firms
recent growth and to effect a wider
distribution.

| Railroads to Meet
All Car Needs,
Executive Soys
BH the Associated Press.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 17.-An execu-
tive of the Association of American
Railroads predicts the railroads will
be able to meet all the freight car
supply requirements of the national
defense program.
L. B. Belts. manager of the car
service division of the A, A. r., esti-
mated the demand would reach a
peak in mid-October with weekly
loading totaling between 950,000 and
100000 cars.
He addressed yesterday the 6lst
meeting of the trans MISSOURI
Kansas Shippers Board, which en-
braces all of Missouri and Kansas
and parts of Oklahoma, Arkansas
and Illinois
Because of priorities restrictions,
Mr. Belts said. the number of serv-
iceable cars on the tracks today is
some 10000 short of the anticipated
number for this date, but he stated
a total of 100000 cars should be in
operation by october l. This would
be a gain of 10000 cars since Au-
gust IS.
With additional cars becoming
available between now and October
15," Mr. Belts continued. together
with heavier loading and more
prompt release of cars. there is
every reason to assume the railroads
will be able to meet all the car sup
ply requirements during this peak
period"

Export Control
Continued From First PageD

will have nothing to do with lease
lend requirements.
Hitherto, Latin American coun-
tries have been hit hard by the
priorities program here.
The economic board will provide
a central clearing service to which
exporters, manufacturers and for
eign importers may submit pro-
posals for the export of materials
and commodities. 1t also plans to
obtain clearance for such proposals
from the several Federal agencies
concerned with the control OF ex-
ports and related financial trans
actions.
The effect of the new order,
dated September Is, is TO bring the
Economic Board actively into the
framework Of the wartime emer-
gency setup of the Government.
Up to now. the board has been feel
ing its way.
On the subject of the boards work
relating to priorities, Mr.. Wallace
said:
"Becauses Of our rearmament pro-
gram and our policy of full aid to
nations resisting aggression, certain
materials are becoming increasingly
scarce, which makes the ALLEGATION
of priorities under the Supply Priori-
ties and Allocat tions Board much
more difficult
In the time ahead these Difficult
ties will become greater. I am.
therefore, asking both the Supply
Priorities and Alloca tions Board and
the Economic Defense Board to con-
suit with all affected departments
and agencies at once and report to
me as soon as possible on the extent
to which supplies of critically needed
raw materials can be increased.
Il am asking for an action pro-
gram under which we can step up
the total amounts of raw materials
available to us" He further ex-
planned that part of this increase
will be obtained from within this
country and part of it from other
trade areas, with particular empha-
sis on the republics OF this hemi-
sphere.
Civilian Sacrifices Necessary.
I'VE shall have to secure this in
crease in supply in ways best suited
to the production Of each COM
modify" Mr.. Wallace said. Among
