Purpose—During the past. 12 months' period the company's shortterm loans payable to banks have varied between $48,100,000 and zero,
the peak of such short-term loans having occurred during the latter
part
of February
through March, and aggregated $i5,000,000 on
Oct. 16, 1944.
During the coining 12 months' period the company
contemplates target acquisitions, in quantity and in dollar amount, of
both burley
and flue-eured tobaccos, as well as greater acquisitions.
under more favorable conditions of Turkish-type tobaccos, than duriiig
(he prior similar period.
Company, particularly as ceiling prices of
and allotted quantities from the buriey 1944 crop have not yet been
established, cannot at this time determine the amount which will be
expended in the purchases of tobacco during the current season.
How¬
ever,
the company anticipates
the possibility that such purchases

Phillips, Chairman, and K. S. Adams, President, on Oct. 25
-stated in part as follows:
•
•
"In the report to stockholders for the first six months of 1944, it
was stated, that the, company contemplated the completion Of 500 Wells
before the end of this year.
To date, 425 wells have been drilled and
it now appears that approximately 600 will have been finished by the
year-end.
Net production of crude oil for the month of September',
averaged approximately 82,000 barrels per day.
This record level of
production reflects the initial development of reserves recently disT
covered.
In the new West Edmond Field, near Oklahoma City, the
company has completed 25 producing wells and drilling operations are
in progress on 43 additional weils at this time.
"Since the formation of the Foreign Department a few months ago,
acreage or exploration rights have been acquired in Canada, Venezuela,
and Colombia,, and a test well has been started in Canada.
"The company's manufacturing facilities have continued to accom¬
plish steady-and substantial increases in output of critical war prod¬
ucts."

details for the week covered by. the foregoing will appear
>n our issue of next week.
We cannot furnish them today, in as much as the week
ends Saturday 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.
,l
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 Oct. 21.
For that week there was an increase of 6.8%, the aggregate of clear¬
ings for the whole country having amounted to $10,459,937,802, against $9,793,163,917
In the same week in 1943.
Outside of this city there was a gain of 7.6%, the bank
clearings at this center having recorded an increase of 6.4%.
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
■improvement of 6.3% and in the Boston Reserve District of 7.3% but in the Phila¬
delphia Reserve District the totals record a decline of 1.1%.
The Cleveland Reserve
District has been able to better its totals by 6.7%, the Richmond Reserve District,
bv 7 3% and the Atlanta Reserve District by 14.5%.
In the Chicago Reserve Dis¬
trict the totals register a gain of 8.7%, in the St. Louis Reserve District of 11.3% and
in the Minneapolis Reserve District of 10.0%.
In the Kansas City Reserve District
the increase is 4.7%, in the Dallas Reserve District 16.7% and in the San Francisco
He serve District 7.5%.

D. I. Walker, President, in a letter to the stockholders on Oct., 12.
stated in part":
■ ■'
The shareholders have been fully informed from time to time of
the difficult conditions which prevailed in the flour milling industry
of Canada during the periodfrom 1929 to 1939, largely as a
result
of : greatly 'reduced voluriie of sales to
export) markets.- Intensive*
competition
for the
remaining
volume
resulted in reduced profit
margins on both : export' and domestic -sales and-consequently the
earnings of the company were drastically reduced.
In addition - to
the ■ reduced earnings the working' capital position of the
company
was seriously depleted during this period, by-reason of the investment
by the company, in common with other large-milling companies, in
bakeries operating in-a number of cities and towns across Canada.

everywhere except for room sales, and the fact that most of the
decreases are sharper than in July is attributable to the
transpor¬

The only other declines shown by our table are in
beverage sales, in Cleveland, Detroit and Texas.
Occupancies were decidedly higher everywhere than in July.
Cleveland led with 95%, followed closely
by New York with 94%
and Detroit with 93%.
For the miscellaneous hotels included in
All Others, an occupancy at 88%

represents a record high, as does
countrywide average of 89%.
The best showing on room rates is a rise of 9% over
