Knox Seeks Favorable Rate for City Debt Refinancing
City Manager E. M. Knox, back from New York conferences, reports brighter prospects for refinancing floating debt. He aims to attract bids for 759000 in school bonds and to convert short term notes to long term bonds, aided by a conservative New York firm and bond attorneys Reed Hoyt and Washburn. Grover H. Jones accompanied Knox. Jones returned early while Knox stayed for further banker talks. The effort aligns with the new charter debt limits and delinquent street assessment provisions.
