Aiic luwcai puuiL icauicu vy the index this year and also the low est siiice 1934 was 70.3, in the sec ond week of August. The year's high point was 77.8. A decline in the food price index look it to the lowest point reached 1 since the sharp upturn in prices be gan in early September. The farm product average receded moderately, with lower quotations for hogs, poultry- and wool more than offsetting advances in cotton and grains. The cotton index is at the highest point reached since 1937. The group indexes representing the prices of miscellaneous com modities and farm machinery were off slightly. Increases took place in the textile, building material, chemi cal and drug, and fertilizer material indexes. In tne metal group a rise in tin prices offset a decline in steel scrap. • C. & 0.

Asbury Davis, receiver of Chesapeake Corp., announced yesterday a distribution November 30 of common stock and scrip certificates for common shares of Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Co. in the amount of 6-10 of a share for each share of Chesapeake Corp. held.

The Allegany Corp., as owner of 71 per cent of Chesapeake Corp., would receive approximately 766,800 shares of C. & O. Financial circles said these shares would replace the present Chesapeake Corp. stock now deposited as collateral for the three i Alleghany Corp. bond Issues. 1 Bondholders Attack Denver & Rio Grande Plan of I. C. C. Pomise Long Fight If Examiner's Report Is Certified By the Associated Press. Major bondholders of the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad op posed as "absolutely unacceptable” yesterday a plan to reorganize the road submitted by an Interstate Commerce Commission examiner. In a brief filed with the commis sion, the bondholders objected chiefly to terms under which the road would be consolidated with two subsidiaries, the Salt Lake & Den ver and Salt Lake Western Rail roads. These roads are controlled by the R. F. C., which holds their capital stock as collateral for Den ver & Rio Grande Western loans. The commission examiner pro posed the issuance of new first mort gage bonds to the R. F. C. to the full extent of its claim. None of the new first mortgage bonds would go to the holders of Denver & Rio Grande Western bonds. An insurance group committee, which filed the brief in behalf of major bondholders, previously had reached an understanding with the R. F. C. whereby the latter would accept for its claim 61.07 per cent in new first mortgage bonds and 44.78 per cent in new income bonds. The R. F.
