interests involved have accepted
the plan. These include the bank
ing and commercial creditors and
tbe note holders. The first and
sacond preferred stockholders, 1t is
said. are holding out for better
terms.
As the plan now stands, accord
ing TO reports current in La Sale

consist Of 100000 of Z per cent
debentures, SIO,000,000 per cent
first preferred stock, $500 z per
cent second preferred and an in
definite amount of common stock.
The two preferred stocks will be

the reorg anization on an equal foot
ing. These claims approximate

ceiye 50 per cent of debentures at
mar and so per cent of first pre-
