This Amendment No. 34 (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D, as amended (the “Schedule 13D”), relating to the common shares of beneficial interest, par value $.10 per share, of Public Storage, Inc., the predecessor of Public Storage (the “Issuer”), previously filed by B. Wayne Hughes, B. Wayne Hughes, Jr. and Tamara Hughes Gustavson (together, the “Reporting Persons”). This Amendment is being filed to update the Schedule 13D to reflect that the Reporting Persons no longer constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Unless otherwise indicated, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Schedule 13D, and unless amended or supplemented hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect.

Item 4.

Purpose of the Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following:

The Reporting Persons no longer constitute a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act. Because neither B. Wayne Hughes nor B. Wayne Hughes, Jr. is individually a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding common shares, they are no longer subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13(d) or (g) of the Exchange Act. Tamara Hughes Gustavson is separately making a Schedule 13D filing reporting her beneficial ownership.

Item 5.
