By the Associated Press. AKRON, Ohio, September 29.— Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. has pro- posed to its stockholders a refinancing plan which its statement said is “de- signed to make possible the resump- tion of dividends when current earn- ings and surplus permit.” President Paul W. Litchfield said a stockholder’s meeting will be held here November 2 to pass upon the program. The statement said the plan con- templated: “1—The creation of a new issue of $5 convertible preferred stock, senior to the present first preferred stock as to both dividends and assets, and con- vertible until October 1, 1946, into common stock for one share of new preferred stock. “2—The offering by the company to the holders of its existing first pre- ferred stock of one share of $5 con- vertible preferred stock and one-thinrd of a share of common stock for each share of existing first preferred stock.” Under the present capitalization, Litchfield’s statement showed, Good- year has 759,719 outstanding shares of first preferred, $7 cumulative, no par value stock in which arrearages total $8,546,000. Common stock, without par value, totals 1,540,399 outstand- ing in an authorization of 5,000,000 shares. The new $5 preferred stock issued prior to March 15, 1937, Litchfield said, “will bear dividends cumulative from February 23, 1936, so that the total dividends payable on the new stock during the year 1936 wijl be $4.25 a | 88 share.” ‘The name of the existing first pre- ferred stock would be changed to “second preferred stock,” Litchfield | said.
