"The market value of these securities has since declined to $25,000,000, but even this figure appears grossly inflated when compared to the present book value and the obscure outlook for earnings." Eaton charged that Frazer and Macdonald "guided the market performance of Kaiser Frazer stocks, and said the SEC will be delinquent if it does not expose the "parallel techniques" used in the Graham-Paige and Kaiser-Frazer stock marketing. HE SAID that Graham-Paige's banker, Allen and of New York, obtained a secret contract from K-F out of the February underwriting debacle, and that it "represents a shameful imposition on Kaiser-Frazer stockholders." Allen and Co. was associated with Otis and Co. and the First California Co. in the February underwriting contract.

Eaton and H. T. Birr, of the First California, "terminated" it, but Allen refused. The substitute agreement was Allen's reward, Eaton claims. Dividends BY JAMES M.

HASWELL Of Our Washington Bureau WASHINGTON Edgar F. Kaiser, general manager of Kaiser-Frazer and Joseph W. Frazer, president, will be called back to the witness stand by the Securities and Exchange Commission Thursday. The SEC is investigating the $10,000,000 K-F stock underwrit ing failure in which Otis and Cleveland investment brokers, their underwriting contract last February. Out of that row arose a feud between Henry Kaiser, noted build er, and Cyrus Eaton, famous rail and utility promoter, who.

heads Otis and Co. THE SEC FILED answers Wednesday in its pending suit to force two of Eaton's lawyers, Marvin Harrison and Harold Allen, to testify. A hearing on their claim of the lawyer-client right of privacy is scheduled Monday. Eaton challenged the SEC to ask Frazer about his earlier Graham-Paige financing. He said that Frazer was president and W.

A. Macdonald, another witness scheduled to appear Thursday, was vice president of Graham-Paige when they came to Kaiser-Frazer in the same capacities in 1945.

Voeel securities firm and member of the Detroit Stock Exchange. Formation of the atomic by product firm, first in Michigan, was announced recently. It will manufacture instruments to measure radio-activity and process ra dio isotopes to be obtained irom the atomic piles at Oak Ridge, Tenn. The isotopes are useful in medicine, biology, laboratories, industry and agriculture. Directors include Homer ST.

Mvers and John R. Niles, super visors in secret programs at the University of Michigan Engineering Research Institute at Willow Run; Dr. John C. Grebe, research assistant to Dr. Willard Dow, of Dow Chemical and Everett C.

Swanson, of the underwriting firm. Directors of McLouth Steel Corp. Wednesday called a special meeting of stockholders for July 26 to consider and approve a proposed capital-stock increase plan. The board of directors has recommended that capital stock be increased from 300,000 shares, of $5 par value, to a million shares with $2.50 par value, and that the now outstanding shares be split on a two-for-one basis. The action was proposed to pro-' vide capital adaptable to increasing business volume and expected expansion of facilities.

M. A. Yockey, secretary and treasurer of Pfeiffer Brewing announced that net income for the first six months of 1948 had totaled $866,390, or 52.02 a share, compared to $745,422 in the like 1947 period. He also disclosed tnat Pienter had realized a net profit of $80,340 from liquidation of a wholly-owned subsidiary. Dividends paid out by steel com panies in 1948 will approximate those of 1947, according to a sur vey published Wednesday by Mer rill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Beane.

The survey analyzes the problems of the steel industry and presents detailed information about 24 leading steel producers. In discussing abandonment of the basing point pric-; sj'stem the firm states that adoption of the t.u.ts. price system may prove to be detrimental to steel plants in the Pittsburgh-Cleveland- Youngstown area and of benefit to steel mills close to new steel markets. The report suggests, however, that the effect will be gradual. High-grade iron ore reserves are running low, the survey notes, and then points out the two alterna tives, processing of low-grade ores and importing high-grade ores.

The legality of a strike, the opinion said, has no bearing on the question of relief for strikers. The only question is one of need, it said.

The opinion, responding to another question by the Governor's office, said relief for strikers cannot be considered as a loan. Michigan Deaths ALBION Mrs. B. T. Caldwell.
