War Loa cumulative preference sharehold- ers, the eight per cent preference ordinary shareholders and the or- dinary shareholders.
Counsel recalled that a former sheme for amalgamation with the Iron Steel and South Durham Co., and a reorganisation of capi- tal had been before the courts, but was not proceeded with, and Dorman Long now brought for- ward a new scheme.
The reduction of capital was to be effected mainly by cutting down the six per cent preference shares of £1 to fifteen shillings, the eight per cent. preferred ordinary shares of £1 each to Ave shillings, and the ordinary shares from £1 to two shillings. All arrears of dividend would be cancelled.
The £5,135,944 or 5 per cent. debentures was to be divided into two portions. Sixty per cent. of it was to be represented by Ave per cent. debenture stock, having axed charge ranking in front ot all existing securities, other than the £400,000 4 per cent. debenture stock and charge in favour of the banks,
