week covered by the foregoing will appear
furnish them 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 31. For that week there was an increase of 24.7%, the aggregate of
clearings for the whole country having amounted to $8,676,489,751, against $6,959,798,002 in the same week in 1942. Outside of this city there was an increase of 17.7%,
the'bank clearings at this centre having recorded a gain of 31.8%.. 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 record
an improvement of 32.1%, in the Boston Reserve District of 12.0% and in the Phila¬
delphia Reserve District of 15.0%. In the Cleveland Reserve District the totals are
larger by 17.1%, in the Richmond Reserve District by 16.2% arid in the Atlanta
Reserve District by 14.6%.
In the Chicago Reserve District the totals show a gain
of 12 2%, in the St. Louis Reserve District of 16.4% and in the Minneapolis Reserve
District of 26.7%. In the Kansas City Reserve District the increase is 34.8%, in the
Dallas Reserve District 10.5% and in the San Francisco Reserve District 19.3%.

Everything
the corporation is producing is either directly or indirectly essential
to the support of the war program.
The increase in dollar volume
of other authorized products in the second quarter is largely due to
release by
the Government of certain types of goods for essential
civilian use.

"Net income available for dividends for the second quarter of 1943
amounted to $36,316,164, as compared with $24,613,218 for the same
quarter a year ago and with $53,579,568 for the corresponding period
of 1941, the last peacetime year,
After paying the regular dividend
of $2,294,555 on the $5 series preferred stock, there remained in the
quarter under review net income of $34,421,609 available for the
common
stock.
This was equivalent to 78 cents per share on the
average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
V "It frequently becomes necessary to make substantial charges against
earnings of a particular "uarter which have no direct relation to the
operations, of that quarter.
Thus, the earnings records of any single
quarter should not be taken as indicative of a trend.
Later adjust¬
ments
may
necessarily result in substantial modifications, in either
direction.
For the second quarter of 1942 net income available for
the common stock
amounted to $22,318,663, equivalent to 51

on the proxy voting:-the annual meeting in

Sloan, Jr., Chairman of the corporation, on Aug.n5,
declared that the support of stockholders through the trying period of\
complete conversion to
war production,
which brought many new r
management responsibilities, has been extremely gratifying. '
r
Recalling
that a number of stockholders,
aside from comments.";
on
matters directly before the annual meeting, also referred to
the
matter of
dividends, Mr. Sloan again reviewed the various factors
affecting dividend payments during the war:
"First:
Current profits before taxes are largely a matter of pub\
lie war policy which is reflected both in the corporation's own profit
limitation policy and in that embodied in legislation which requires
the renegotiation of war production contracts;
,
' '
- "
''
"Second:
Income taxes and surtaxes are absorbing a constantly
increasing proportion of profits.
v.-;";';'-'y .y.
"Third:
Excess profits taxes and profit limitations on
war con-^tracts have the effect of establishing what is practically a ceiling on
net income available for dividends during the war pe'riod, thus off¬
setting the normal effect of expanded sales, yr'• ■
"Fourth:
War conditions require, from time to time, the establish¬
ment of reserves in addition to those normally required in peacetime
and in amounts which may importantly influence earrings of any par¬
ticular period.

service would represent an extension of the Boston-to-New York opera¬
tion for which Northeast has previously applied.
President S. J. Solomon,
in his proposal, asks that Northeast be
granted permission to operate a service covering three routes: Route
No. 1, between the co-terminal points New York, N. Y„ and Newark,
.N J., and the terminal point Pittsburgh, Pa.; Route No. 2,
between
the
co-terminal points
New Yrok City, N. Y., and Newark, N. J.,

Niagara Falls, N. Y., Erie, Pa., Detroit, Mich., Grand Rapids, Mich ,

points New York, N. Y., and Newark, N. J., the intermediate points
Atlantic City, N. J„ Philadelphia. Pa., Harrisburg, Pa., Pittsburgh, Pa.,
Akron, Ohio, Cleveland, Ohio, Toledo, Ohio, and the terminal point
Cnicago, 111.
•
This was Northeast's third proposal for its expansion and develop¬
ment.
It had previously asked the C. A. B. for a permit to establish
a
post-war air service to London, Paris, Moscow and other Northern
European capitals and for permission to operate a helicopter mail and
express system serving over 400 cities and towns.—-V. 157, p. 1849.

Reorgani¬

In

Progress

of disposing of its investments
and the reorganization and liquidation of its public utility subsidaries
of the corporation,
was reported by B.
H. Brewster, President, in
the semi-annual report to stockholders, issued' August 4.
Progress in
the plan for
The Laclede Gas Light Co. and The
Laclede Power and Light Co. was the major activity reported.
Part
of the plan relating to the sale of the electric properties has already
been
approved,
and other
phases of the proposed procedure are
awaiting final approval by the Missouri P. S. Commission and the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
The ultimate aim of this plan
is to have The Laclede Gas Light Co. emerge as a gas utility company,
with
the
electric
properties
of that company and of The Laclede
Power and Light Co. disposed of to the Union Electric Co. of Missouri.
Upon completion of the plan Ogden proposes disposing of all holdings

In discussing the recent dividend paid by Ogden Corp., Mr. Brewster
said:

holders of record at the close of
business
on
June 14,
1943.'
This dividend amounting to $2,552,786
was declared out of surplus of the corporation at May 31, 1943, payable
out of
the
corporate earned surplus to the extent thereof on said
date
in
the
amount
of $1,284,363,
the balance in the amount of
$1,268,424 being payable out of capital
surplus."
Mr. Brewster also pointed out that the total assets of the corpora¬
tion recorded as at June 30,
1943, after giving effect to the dividend
payment, and deducting all liabilities except surplus and the reserve
for
adjustment of assets
required in reorganization, indicated an
assets value of $5.54 per common share.—V. 158, p. 195.
