Louis Taub Seeks Creditors’ Federal Bankruptcy Plan
Louis Taub states his creditors and friends should withhold judgment until facts are known and a plan to secure all assets is formulated by his attorney Arthur Ross. The plan would pool secured and unassigned claims to yield full payment, with Taub Realization Company to recover and liquidate securities. A receiver, Arthur V. Dalziel, was appointed with a $2000 bond, and creditors await a meeting as Taub aims to restart business once supported.
