Municipal Financing for 1946

1946, the record reveals that

borrowing by states and municipalities aggregated $1,-

160,496,166, this being the largest total achieved since the
sales of $952,615*173 in 1941, a prewar year. Sales dur¬
ing 1945 were $794,740,667, contrasted with $638,909,818
in 1944; $435,223,191 in 1943, and $523,704,607 in 1942.
The volume of new capital borrowed during 1946, as
distinguished from refunding operations, was substan¬
tially greater than for any year since 1939* For com¬
parative purposes, we give the following tabulation of
operations for the past several years:

The

^profits for its 1947 fiscal year to be as good"maybe a little better" than 1946, John W. Whitehead, Presi¬
dent, stated following the ; annual meeting.
1
The company reported earnings of $2.25 a share for the fiscal year
«nded Sept. 30, 1946, giving no consideration to dividends paid on the
preferred stock, which was retired during the year.
The company had a net profit, after taxes and charges, for Oc¬
tober and November, 1946, of $93,284. This compared with $99,441 in
the like 1946 period. During .the first two months of the 1947 fiscal
year, however,'the company's activities were curtailed by a
strike
which, it is estimated, cost in the neighborhood of $40,000.
,s
Gross sales before taxes, in the first quarter of-the current fiscal
,.year were $3,407,848, compared with $2,789,137 in the like 1946 period.

Em-

Jployees who will have been with the company during four of the six
months' period, and in the company's employ at the time of dis¬

The new bonus system is the direct result of a greatly increased
production of motors during the last three months of 1946.
When Mr. Bland and his associates assumed ownership and man¬
agement of the plant last April, production was at a standstill.
The
company was in the grip of a two months' strike and was definitely

shortages of raw materials added to the production problems.
Mr. Bland scoured the country for all short materials and was suc¬

requiring the mining of many more tons of material and the use
and equipment than in the case of direct shipping ores,
but also the further reclamation of fine ores now being lost in tail¬
ings. Extensive fundamental research work on magnetic and non¬
magnetic taconites will begin this year, as an extension of the work
done by Batelle Memorial Institute with which Oliver's research lab¬

Recently the Oliver company established a new research laboratory
at Duluth to continue and intensify its pioneering program of re¬
search in the general improvement of Lake Superior district iron ores
used by the steel making facilities of the United States Steel Corp.
While the laboratory is not yet in full operation, it already has an
annual payroll of over $100,000.
The company has been carrying on for many -years ft program de¬
signed to study ways and means of improving iron ores currently
being mined and to make experimental investigations of the concen¬
tration of lower grade iron ore formations for future use.
