    Within thirty days of the date of the order, any person desiring to

    Absent a request for hearing within this period, Gelber is 
authorized to issue securities and assume obligations or liabilities as

some lawful object within the corporate purposes of the applicant, and 
compatible with the public interest, and is reasonably necessary or 
appropriate for such purposes.
    The Commission reserves the right to require a further showing that 
neither public nor private interests will be adversely affected by 
continued approval of Gelber's issuances of securities or assumptions 
of liability.
