Holding Companies

AGENCY: Office of Thrift Supervision.

ACTION: Proposed rule; extension of comment period.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) is extending the

comment period until July 18, 1994 for its proposed rule regarding

conversions from mutual to stock form and mutual savings and loan

holding companies that was published on May 3, 1994.

DATES: Comments must be received by July 18, 1994.

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are invited to submit written comments on

this proposal to: Director, Information Services Division, Public

Affairs, Office of Thrift Supervision, 1700 G Street, NW., Washington,

DC 20552, Attention: Docket No. 94-49. These submissions may be hand-

delivered to 1700 G Street, NW., from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on

business days, or may be sent by facsimile transmission to FAX number

(202) 906-7755. Comments will be available for inspection at 1700 G

Street, NW., from 1:00 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. on business days. Visitors

will be escorted to and from the Public Reference Room at established

intervals.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael P. Vallely, Senior Attorney

(202) 906-6241, Kevin A. Corcoran, Assistant Chief Counsel, (202) 906-

6962, Corporate and Securities Division, Chief Counsel's Office; Diana

L. Garmus, Deputy Assistant Director, (202) 906-5683, Corporate

Activities Division, Office of Thrift Supervision, 1700 G Street, NW.,

Washington, DC 20552.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule, published in the Federal

Register on May 3, 1994 (59 FR 22764), indicated that public comments

were to be submitted to the OTS no later than July 17, 1994. This date

was not properly calculated by the Office of the Federal Register. The

requested closing date for comments was 45 days from date of

publication, or June 17, 1994. A correction was published on June 7,

1994 (59 FR 29480). However, in order to afford the public adequate

time to comment, the OTS has determined that closing date in the

original notice should be used. The OTS believes that there has been

sufficient level of confusion about the closing date to warrant

reinstating the later date. Therefore, the comment period is hereby

extended until July 18, 1994, as July 17 is not a business day.

Dated: June 8, 1994.

By the Office of Thrift Supervision.

Jonathan L. Fiechter,

Acting Director.
