POWER FIRM SEEKS 10 REFUND BONDS Permission Sought to Issue New $400,000 Series on Ex- change Basis A refunding program of a portion ‘of the bonded indebtedness of the Ottertail Power company of Minne- sota, which operates in approximately | 300 communities in North Dakota, was revealed in an application to the state board of railroad commissioners Wed- nesday. The application, made by Thomas ©. Wright, president of the utility company, asks permission to issue $400,000 in a new series of general mortgage bonds, to replace a portion of a previous issue. None of the new bonds proposed, would be sold to the public, but would reach only holders of the previous issue on an exchange basis, the appli- cation showed. The company proposes to issue the new bond series at 4 per cent, with a maturity date of July 1, 1950. These bonds, it is planned, would replace in part a $500,000 block of 6 per cent yonds, which have been called for redemption Oct. 1 of this year. The new bonds will be known as “Series In addition, not to exceed $25 will tbe paid holders of the older series, for each $1,000 so exchanged, it is pro- neoodo ae mone nt! The petition stated the company thas outstanding $4,181,500 in all series ‘at the present time. The board set Aug. 27 as the date for hearing on the application.
