advised you that the Bureau of Internal Revenue
income and excess profits taxes against this
company for the years 1939-1942 inclusive in the aggregate amount i f
$92,247 plus interest, and that the company was contesting the claim.
Adding the interest, the amount of this proposed assessment was ap¬
proximately $100,000.
This claim has now been settled for $54,450
including interest.
In view of this settlement, it is estimated that the final liquidating
payment on the stock of Midwest Vessel Corp. will probably be between
$30 and $33 per share.
There are still several matters to be taken
care
of before final payment can be
made and the exact amount
cannot be determined at this time, but the final payment should be
approximately as indicated.
;
Your officers and directors are hopeful that all matters can be dis¬
posed of and the final payment made before the close of this year,
and will use their best efforts to that end.
Further notice will be

post-war refund of $31,300 in 1942 and $203,500 in 1944, and

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 22.
For that week there was an increase of >32.5%, the aggregate of clear¬
ings for the whole country having amounted to $10,706,589,712, against $8,080,210,013
in the same week in 1943.
Outside of this city there was a gain of 23.4%, the bank
clearings at this center having recorded an increase of 42.4%.
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 an
expansion of 41.6%, in the Boston Reserve District of 8.0% and in the Philadelphia
Reserve District of 4.2%.
The Cleveland Reserve District enjoys a gain of 7.7%,
the Richmond Reserve District of 12.4% and the Atlanta Reserve District of 18.4%.
In the Chicago Reserve District the totals are larger by 11.7%, in the St. Louis Re¬
serve District by 24.1%, and in the Minneapolis Reserve District by 10.7%.
In the
Kansas City Reserve District the increase is 3.3%, in the Dallas Reserve District
2.3% and in the San Francisco Reserve District 10.1%.
In the following we furnish a summary by Federal Reserve Districts:

1943.—V. 159,

substatnial contract services for the
of $1, Juan T. Trippe, President,
held on July 20. Mr. Trippe
said the decrease in 1943 earnings, to about $1,900,000 from $3,700,000
in 1942, resulted largely from these wartime
services. He said that
while
passenger
revenues
would
increase in 1944 over 1943, the
corporation was going to
continue its policy of helping the war
effort at nominal cost as long as the war continued.
He held out
only a moderate hope of an important increase in earnings for this
•year.
;r- : ;'v
'■■
Mr.
Trippe said that all North Atlantic operations at the start
of 1943 were transferred to Navy jurisdiction, and no fare receipts
or
mail pay was recorded from this division, one of the reasons for
the earnings decrease.
Another was a reduction in the rate of mail
pay for the Latin American division.
Mr. Trippe said that the Latin
American
mail pay
question had been under review by the Civil
Aeronautics Board and that a decision was
handed down July 19,
but that Pan American had not yet had time to calculate the effect
on
future mail revenues.
Mail revenues in 1943, he stated, declined
about $5,250,000, to
about $6,800,000. The Latin American division
mail service was on
a self-sustaining
basis at the 1943 rate, Mr.

according to Harry Boyd Brown, Manager of air

"The fact that very few people understood wh'at a room cooler was,

"But the performance, service and utility of single-room air con¬
