by the foregoing will appear

today, inasmuch as the week
ends Saturday and the Saturday figures are not available at time of going to press.
Accordingly, in the above the last day of the week in all cases has to be estimated.
In the elaborate detailed statement, however, which we present further below
we are able to give the final and complete results for the week previous—the week
ended July 24.
For that week there was an increase of 24.3%, the aggregate of
clearings for the whole country having amounted to $8,480,244,779, against $6,821,250,198 in the same week in 1942. Outside of this city there was an increase of 21.2%,
the bank clearings at this centre having recorded a gain of 27.6%.
We group the
cities according to the Federal Reserve Districts in which they are located and from
this it appears that in the New York District (including this city) the totals show
a gain of 27.5% in the Boston Reserve District of 10.9% and in the Philadelphia Re¬
serve District of 17.8%.
In the Cleveland and Richmond Reserve District there is an
increase of 17.2% and in the Atlanta Reserve District of 24.4%. The Chicago Reserve
District has enlarged its totals by 24.4%, the St. Louis Reserve District by 24.5%,
and the Minneapolis Reserve District by 28.8%.
In the Kansas City Reserve District
the increase is 39.0%, in the Dallas Reserve District 52,5% and in the San Francisco

For the first time the number of telephones served by this company

Figures available up to July 21 show
that this total was attained during the week ending on that date.
The gain from January 1 to July 21 was about 107,000, producing
a
total of approximately 3,004,000 telephones in

during that period was greater than for any entire year since 1929,

Total airmail pounds
shot up to 391,033 in June, an increase of 15,228 over the previous
record set in May.
Through the month of June NWA planes, their
loads
swelled by new needs for swift correspondence between
war
centers from Chicago to the Pacific Northwest, flew a total of 278,650,825 pound-miles.
The new record exceeds the total of airmail
pounds in June, 1942, by more than 166,000, and the pound-miles total
is more than 90,000,000 over the same month a year ago.
Spotlighting the increase in service of air transportation to the war
effort of the nation, NWA planes carried a total of 7,990 passengers,
mostly on war business, during the month of June, Mr. Hunter stated.
The new figure, he
said, shows an increase of 783 passengers over
the total for the previous month, and: an increase of more than 1,200
over the
total transported by NWA planes during June, 1942.
The
planes flew an estimated 5,197,590 passenger miles during the month.
Northwest Airlines planes, loaded with materials for war industries
in
centers between
Chicago and the Northwest, carried a total of
102,081 pounds of air express during the month of June, Mr. Hunter
added.

indicating that the proposed financing would result in an annual saving
of approximately $173,000, or $4,325,000 over the 25-year period.
How- '
ever the interest savings are estimated as follows:
Interest on series-A
bonds at 4(4%, 25 years to July 1, 1968, $32,043,375; interest on serles-D bonds at 3%%
for the same period, with allowances for an¬
nual retirements through

savings of $8,546,812. The 2(4% premium on the called bonds; amount¬
ing to $712,075, would reduce the interest savings over the period to
$7,834,737, indicating an average annual saving of $313,389.
The ex¬

the redemption of the series-A bonds amount to'
$251,072, and consist of Federal taxes. $31,331; Philadelphia cfty lax,

In view of the fact that there was a further increase in the price
of the principal items in
the inventory, the Board of Directors, in
continuance
of the policy
established in 1941, authorized a further
appropriation for possible future inventory losses in the amount of
$1,000,000; increasing such reserve to $6,000,000, as compared with
$5,000,000 on Dec. 31, 1942, and $4,000,000 on Dec. 31, 1941.
