Plans Looking to Reorganization o1

terests in the Southern Textile com.
pany, a proposed 100000 900 textile
combination are discussing, says The
Journal of Commerce, plans looking to
a reorganization of the company.
Nothing definite has yet been deter
mined on, but the fact that the con,
cern which is now in the hands of re
ceiVers, has comparatively few cred,
itOrS, who will, no doubt, facilitate
any plan to reorganize the company.
All the stock in the enterprise, which
originally intended to take over some,
thing life 40 concerns, was taken by
parties personally interested. 1t sue
ceeded in acquiring only four textile
mills, all of which have been shut
down except one, which has been
running by the receivers.
1t has been reported that under the
reorganization plan the reorganized
capital stock will be scaled down from
$20,000,000 to $500,000. Persons who
are in a position to know say that il
will take several weeks before any
thing approaching a definite statement
regarding the company's future may
be made public. Ancilliary receivers
have been appointed in these states;
North Carolina, w. S. Whaley, James
Holt; South Carolina, Walter M. Dun
lap; Alabama and Missouri, w. G.
Whaley.
The receivers have qualified in all
the states, and have taken possession
Of the property.
