$6,611,365,710 in the same week in 1941. Outside of this city there was an increase
of 15.1%, the bank clearings at this center having recorded a decrease of 4.8%.
We group the cities according to the Federal Reserve districts in which they are
located, and from this it appears that the New York Reserve District (including
this city) recorded a decrease of 4.6%.
The best gain was had in the Atlanta
District, where there was an increase of 34.9%. At Kansas City there was a 29.9%
gain in volume of checks cleared; St. Louis followed with an improvement of
22.9%. San Francisco was next with a rise of 20.3%, Chicago of 18.6% and Richmond
of 18.5%. Minneapolis had an increase of 12.4%, Philadelphia of 11.5% and Cleve¬
land of 11.4%. Dallas had the lowest increase in the country with a gain of 9.4%,
while the Boston Federal Reserve District had the other loss of 3.5%, besides

Grace stated

that gross billings in

the first quarter of 1942 were

$306,000,000, a new record, against $185,000,000 in the first 1941
quarter. Gross billings for all 1941 were $961,000,000. The increase in
billings over a year ago is largely due to greater volume of shipbuild¬
ing and general ordnance work, as steel production a year ago was
about at capacity.

enjoyed net
sales
of
$3,971,269,
resulting in
a
net
profit, after depreciation,
amortization, and
extraordinary
charges, but before Federal and
State income taxes, -of $620,933.
The foregoing compares with net
sales of. $1,113,072-and net profit of $155,810 for the six .months'
period ending Jan. 31, 1941.
On
account
of recent regulations of
the War Department, com¬
pany is unable
to furnish figures as to unfilled orders.
However,
present unfilled orders are substantial, and shipments are satisfactory.
Directors have declared a dividend of
7Vi cents, payable May 1,
1942.
This includes an extra dividend of 2'/2 cents.
While earnings
might be considered to justify the payment of a somewhat larger
dividend, nevertheless it was felt- that a conservative policy should
be adopted in regard to conserving company's cash,
largely because
of
income tax requirements and
the tremendously increased payroll
required on account of the company's greatly enlarged operations.
