The reorganization committee for Northern Pacific Railroad reports that earnings since last November fall short of interest on second mortgage bonds, prompting a shift to a general reorganization role. It calls for deposits of second, third, and consolidated bonds, notes defaults, and a $1 million advance to cover first mortgage coupons. Receivers confirm $7.244 million floating debt, $4,116.90 past due mainline coupons, and $11.355 million in collateral obligations, with estimates of nearly $10 million needed for three years of upgrades. The committee claims broad bondholder support, representing over $18 million in consolidated bonds and near majority of third mortgage bonds, plus $5.5 million in second mortgage bonds.
