e-Wage Freeze

By jones Y. Newton

Refusal of some members of thu

postponement. probably until

order.
A high official revealed the hitch
in freeze plans after the top-leyel
Defense Mobilization Board had
examined the economic order
carefully and approved 1t unani-
mously. The board, under Mobi-
lization Director Charles E. Wilson.
is made up Of five cabinet mem
bers and four other high-ranking
Federal officials.
Earlier Eric Johnston, the new
Economic Sterilization admins
traitor, had set a definite deadline
Of this week for imposition of
general price and wage controls.
He did so after a meeting with
Price Director Michael v. Di Sale
and Chairman Cyrus S. Ching of
the Wage Sterilization Board.
Ching Seeks Unanimity.
The official, explaining why the
freeze probably will not be i'm
posed today, said at first that the
wage control formula had not
been completed. Then he re-
vealed that Mr.. Ching is seeking
unanimity of his board members
in the matter and "unanimity

believed that either the industry

Examiners Rule
Against Transit
StockSp|it Plan
ICC Aides Declare
Move May Indicate
Speculation Attempt
By DonoId B. HodIey

The proposed four -for-one split
in Capital Transit Co. common
stock faced new obstacle today
as two Interstate Commerce Com
mission examiners recommended
that the commission refuse to ap-
prove the plan.
The Public Utilities Commission
previously had notified the COM
pany that a $5,250,00O unclassifled
account would have to be elm
mated from company assets before
it could approve the split.
The split would increase the
company's number of shares out
standing to 900, 900 from the pres
ent 100000 and would, therefore.
reduce the value of each share
theoretically to one-fourth of its
present value.
Such plan is not unusual for
a stock selling at $40 to $100, be-
cause the larger number of cheap
er shares enables the smaller buy
er to become a stockholder, but it
is regarded as unusual for a stock
selling in the $35-to-$39 price
range of Capital Transit.
Speculation May Be Indicated.
The ICC examiners, H. C. How
ard and w. L. Fulton, asserted
that there was nothing in the pro-
posal which would improve the
company's ability to give service
to the public and they took note
that the company had no plans
for buying additional service
equipment in the present year.
Recent increases in the price Of
the stock mot supported" by earn
ings, may indicate that specula-
tors rather than investors are
interested in the stock" the exam
liners declared. They suggested
that the plan may be expected to
enhance the opportunities of
present stockholders to dispose of
some or all of their holdings at
a profit"
The two examiners asserted:
"The anticipated wider distribu-
ton OF this stock appears to be
based upon the assumption that
the present stockholders desired
to sell, and can more advantage
ously sell. some of their holdings
II the price per share is reduced.
Would Not Promote Stability.
Under these conditions, to-
gether with the lowered market
price for each share, it is probable
that speculation in the stock would
increase.
Facilitating speculation might
reasonably be expected, and it
doubtless is expected, to increase
market prices temporarily and
thereby enhance the opportunities
of present stock holders to dispose
OF some or of all their holdings
at a profit, but it would not tend
TO promote stability in the market
price of the stock or confidence of
the investors therein, or improve
applicants ability to render service
to the public as a common
carrier"
