United States Properties, Inc.; Order of Suspension of Trading
October 7, 1997.
It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that there is
a lack of current and accurate information concerning the securities of
United States Properties, Inc. (``USPI''). Questions have been raised
regarding the accuracy of assertions by USPI, and by others, in
documents sent to and statements made to market-makers of the stock of
USPI, other broker-dealers, and to investors concerning, among other
things: (1) the identity of the persons in control of the operations
and management of the company; (2) the purported members of USPI's
advisory board; and (3) the trading and true value of the common stock
of USPI.
The Commission is of the opinion that the public interest and the
protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the
securities of the above-listed company.
Therefore, it is ordered, pursuant to Section 12(k) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that trading in the above listed
company is suspended for the period from 9:30 a.m. EDT, October 8, 1997
through 11:59 p.m. EDT, on October 21, 1997.
By the Commission.
Jonathan G. Katz,
Secretary.
