For approximately 27 years the company has been engaged in the manu¬ facture and sale of ball bearings under the trade name ''Aetna Ball Bearings," In the years preceding the current war the company's principal products were clutch release bearings for the automobile, .truck and tractor industries. Company also manufactures bearings for aircraft, oil field equipment, overhead conveying systems, freight catdoors. washing machines and other industrial appliances. Featured among the company's commercial products is a patented self-lubricat¬ ing clutch release bearing introduced by the company in 1934 and used by a number of the principal automobile, tractor and truck manu¬ facturers. The patent covering this bearing expires in 1951. The industry in which the company operates is highly competitive, with price and quality of products being the primary factors affecting sales.

We cannot furnish them today, in as much as the .week South 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, complete results for the week previous—the week ended Oct. 23. For that week there was an increase of 1.0%, the aggregate of clear¬ ings for the whole country having amounted to $9,824,728,343, against $9,722,742,704 in the same week in 1943. Outside of this city there was a gain of 3.6%, the bank clearings at this center having recorded a decrease of 1.2%. 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 register a loss of 0.9% and in the Philadelphia Reserve District of 0.1% but in the Boston Re¬ serve District the totals record a gain of 7.6%. In the Cleveland Reserve District the totals are smaller by 0.2% but in the Richmond Reserve District the totals are larger by 8.1% and in the Atlanta Reserve District by 10.2%.
