Chicago and North Western Rebuffed in Debt Payment Bid
In Chicago Tuesday a federal judge refused the Chicago and North Western Railway permission to file for authority to pay in full its debt of 48.3 million to the Reconstruction Finance Corp. The judge cited the already affirmed reorganization plan and no interference by higher courts. Attorney Luther Walter said the railroad’s cash rose from 12.25 million to 17 million during approval and to 80 million by April 18, and payment would release about 135 million in RFC securities for stockholders.
