Opinion of the Court

This is an application for writ of mandamus to compel the respondent to passs upon petitioner's *Page 522 application for approval of a plan for issuing profit-sharing securities. The attorney-general has held that such profit-sharing securities are in effect preferred stock without the right to vote. In short, that the scheme proposed is a scheme for the increasing of the capital stock of the corporation without compliance with the laws relating to such increase of stock In this we think he is correct.
