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.

Again Philadelphia showed minus signs everywhere except for room sales, and the fact that most of the decreases are sharper than in July is attributable to the transpor¬ tation strike. 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%.
