Two committees, one headed by in

the other formed by George b. Atlee,
have deposit agreements for West
Chester, Kennett and Wilmington

ing bonds with the Integrity Trust
Company, while the Atlee committee
has named January as the last day
on which bonds wiu-be received by
its depository, the Girard Trust Com
pany. The first named committee
holds a majority of the bonds, but the
Atlee interests feel that through their

work out a better proposition for the
bondholders than can be offered by
the majority committee. which, il is
stated, have been in charge of ths
situation for several years without

suits.
