a majority interest in Globe Metallurgical Corp.,
proposed to Globe Iron shareholders cn April 9.
The
plan must be approved by holders of 97 Va%
of Globe Iron
stock
as well as by Interlake directors and shareholders.
If approved,
it
would put Interlake in a position to produce a
broad r nge of
ferro-alloys, including silvery iron, ferro silicons,
ferro-chromes and
ferro-manganese, in addition to its standard grades of merchant pig
iron.
According to Ronald W. Thompson, Interlake President, the
products of .t'~c two Gloh» r<vnr>ani»s romr'em^nf those of Interlake,
and their customers and markets correspond closely.
1,
April 24 has boen sec as t.ie date ox a special meeting of Globe
Iron shareholders to consider the plan.
The proposal was developed by principal officers of Interlake and
of both Globe companies.
It calls for the exchange of Interlake stock
for Globe Iron's holdings of Globe Metallurgical stock,
and of addi¬
tional Interlake shares for all of Globe Iron's remaining assets.
If
the
plan is made
effective, Interlake would offer additional
shares
in exchange
for the Globe Metallurgical stock now publicly
held, at the rate of 0.4666% of a share of Interlake common for each
share of Globe Metallurgical.
This would be the same rate proposed
in connection with the Globe Metallurgical shares owned by Glooe Iron.
Globe Iron operates a bla5* furnace and an electric furnace at its
plant in Jackson, Ohio, southeast of Columbus.
It also owns iron
