corporation into the medium-priced, high-volume mar¬
and executive-type planes was announced on March
20.
The company, it is expected, will soon release detailed informa¬
tion on a new type all-metal, four-place single-engine plane of which
four models have already been turned out by hand and are undergo¬
ing tests at Wichita, Kans.
The new plane, known as "Model 35,"
places the company in position to expand peacetime production and
supplements production <of the D18, a twin-engine, 6- to 10-place
craft in the $60,000 price class, and the G17, a single-engine biplane
in the $30,000 price class.
Price of the Model 35 will be in a range
that will enable Beech
to compete favorably with other major pro¬
ducers of medium-priced aircraft,
the announcement said.
Approxi¬
mately 500 of the Model 35 Beeehcrafts have been sold on a "sight
unseen, specifications unknown" basis with substantial cash deposits
on
each airplane. YVYY
V/.;.:..v,iv;Yv pp.. • .p/pY '~Y
It is believed by corporation officials that the maximum possible
output of the Model 35 Beechcraft for 1946 will be purchased on a
firm order
basis within
a
short time - after specifications are re¬
leased.
These specifications, it was stated, are being withheld un¬
til guaranteed figures can be established.
i.^YiYvYpp;-.
pp.- YP '
"Prior to
the war, the company devoted its production largely to;;
private and executive type plants of the more expensive class.
In
now broadening
its field with the Model 35 the company has placed
itself In position to expand production and sales and to utilize more
of the facilities and workers employed in wartime production.
Beech
now employs
some 4,200 workers.
/Y?/p/PSYPYYYPY
John
P.
Gaty, Vice-President
and General Manager, said that
Beech anticipates no
difficulty in financing continued development
of the peacetime program, of which the new plane just announced
is an example.
The largest distributor organization in Beech's his¬
tory is being built up, both in the United States and abroad, to supply
present lines. Mr. Gaty said.—V. 163, p. 1153. p

of the company in 1945, although better than in 1944,
were "again subnormal notwithstanding the increased revenues result- •
ing from a record volume of business," the company states in its an¬
nual report issued March 13..
'
v
"The return on invested capital was only 5.7% for the year, and
during the four war years averaged 5.6%," says the report, "This av¬
erage of 5.6%
compares with average earnings of 6.4%
during the
four prewar years, and is lower than the return in any year from
1921 to 1941, including the worst years of the depression.
/.A/A,./"'/A
"During the years preceding the war the company made definite
progress
in giving constantly improved service at reasonable cost.
Essential to maintaining this process ate additional capital funds with
which to build new and improved plant and equipment. In order that
funds may be obtained, earnings must* be sufficient to provide an ade¬
quate return on the capital invested. The level of earnings in 1945
fell short of this important objective."

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 of the week previous—the week,
ended March 16.
For that week there was an increase of 11.1%, the aggregate of
clearings for the whole country having amounted to $12,792,648,346 against $11,510,,520,108 in the same week .in 1945! Outside of ..this city there was a gain of 7.2%, the
bank clearings at this center having recorded an increase of 14,4%.
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 record
1
an improvement of 13.8%, in the Boston Reserve District of H.9% and in the Philadelphia Reserve,District of 5.4
' In the Cleveland Reserve District the totals are
smaller by 7.4% but in the Richmond Reserve -District .the "totals are larger by 9.5 %
