Mr.. Mullaney explained that
the reduction in par value of the

to wipe out an earned surplus
deficit Of the purchased COM

authorized stock to 5 million
shares was planned so that they
would be available in case Uni
versal wants to exchange them
for any additional property.
He said Universal has no

or anyone else.
He emphasized that the COM
pany plans 20 continue Marion

Marion Steam Shovel has very
good prospects with new light

He expressed hope that good
operating results could be re-
ported at the next stockholders

Indian Resentment Eases
With Arrival of Dulles

India has steadily opposed the
plebiscite. Mr.. Dulles, never
popular in India, was the main
target of Indian papers. They
viewed him as the prime mover
for SEATO's Kashmir statement.
Informed sources stressed that
the Dulles-Nehru talks would
emphasize noncontroversial ways
to improve American-Indian re-
lations, with probably only pass
ing reference to such continuing
points of discord as SEATO, For
mosa and arms aid to Pakistan.
The sources said Mr.. Nehru
and Mr.. Dulles probably would
concentrate on areas of agree
ment, particularly American aid
to India. They speculated that
this might include a joint re-
evaluation of the aid program to
make the United States a greater
partner in midas second five
year plan starting April /.

If the Stevenson vote in the

sive, Stevenson for President
will believe it has proved its
