North Side tract bondholders seek extension plan
Victor Johnson of Johnson and Haddock plans to visit New York early next year to press a new contract for the North Side tract settlers. After a default on November interest, bondholders seek a six percent interest plan and a five year grace, consolidating debts into a single instrument while completing the Jackson Lake dam. The plan gains broad support from the Canal Users Association and local landholders, with final decisions due after a January meeting of the bondholders.
