Through the years the Rio Grande had gone into receivership several times with the Utah Fuel company being held by the bondholders, for their securities. Recent court action by the various - bondholder groups brought the issue into the open where it was necessary to liquidate the stock to pay off the bondholders. Various rumors have been circulating within the past several months that many companies would be bidding for the outright ownership. Among these have been the Kaiser Steel company, the U. S. Steel company, the present management of the Utah Fuel company and other companies who definitely need coking coal. The coking coal reserves of the Utah Fuel company are very large and constitutes one of their most important assets. Regardless of who might be the new owners the industrial picture in East Carbon will, so the reports state, remain in the same condition as at present. for .
