Lincoln Telephone & Telegraph seeks financing via bonds
The Lincoln Telephone & Telegraph Co filed with the State Railway Commission for permission to issue half a million dollars in bonds to be sold at 94 to Harris Trust & Savings Bank. The plan includes $1,106,000 in expenditures for replacements, equipment, and construction across Lincoln and nearby exchanges, funded partly by depreciation reserves and new bond financing. Commissioner Taylor supported the issue as a good price for utility bonds without a hearing, pending checks on additions and betterments.
