Corporations Showing
Gains Over 1962
By SAM DAWSON
NEW YORK UP — Increased
earnings — some at record highs
— are being reported daily by
most of America’s corporations,
large and small. The profit gains
delight stockholders and stock
traders, enhance the life expectan
cy of many jobs, trim estimates of
the Federal treasury deficit, as
sure financing of future business
expansion plans.
Companies with household
names lead the parade.
Profits after taxes in the July
Sentember quarter increased over
last year for: General Motors.
American Telephone, IBM, General
Electric, Jersey Standard Oil, and
for most of the steel companies,
chemicals, drugs, airlines, tobac
cos, foods, utilities and even the
long-ailing rails.
The majority predicts the year
as a whole will be well ahead of
1962.
There is a minority, as always. A
few individual companies in all of
the industries falter. And in some
industries most firms report earn
ings running behind a year ago.
Behind the increased earnings
are many things: increased sales
in an expanding economy, auto
mation and other labor-unit-cost
cutting, increased depreciation al
lowances for tax purposes — even
the population explosion.
And sparking the optimism
about the future of profits is the
expectation that corporate income
taxes will be cut.

Haines-Pt. Chilkoot Plans
Include ‘Dance of Alaska'
The Haines-Port Chilkoot Cen
tennial Committee is planning the
creation and production of a spe
cial dramatic dance presentation
by the year of the Centennial.
Carl Heinmiller, Chairman of
the Haines-Port Chilkoot commit
tee, said the presentation would be
entitled “The Dance of Alaska.”
Planning of the presentation is
in its early stages, he said, but
the outline is drawn. Opening
with the lines, “I am the voice of
the Raven . . the program would
begin with the dances of Alaska’s
native peoples.
Following this, there would be
dances of nineteenth century Rus
sia, dances appropriate to the time
of the American transfer and of the
Klondike gold rush, and finally,
dances of 1967.
A narration based upon the his
tory of Alaska would provide con
tinuity to the presentation and con
tribute to the total dramatic effect.
Mr. Heinmiller, who is Mayor
of Port Chilkoot, is well known as
the director of the Chilkat
Dancers.
How they got started: Brigitte
Bardot was a model. . . . Nikita
Khrushchev was a coal miner. .
Opera singer Joan Sutherland
worked briefly as a secretary. . .
Actor James Stewart hauled bricks.

NEW YORK CP — The credit
' card business is firming up after
! going through some rocky times.
This is due mainly to two fac
tors: The card companies have
weeded out the bad risks that cut
into their profits in the early days
of the business.
New Internal Revenue Service
regulations on expense accounts
have made substantiation of cer
tain expenditures necessary.
And. says Howard L. Clark,
president of American Express Co.,
which is observing the fifth anni
versary o fits entrance into the
credit card business: “The rise in
credit card use is a reflection of
more and more people deciding
that a credit card is a respectable
and useful document."
The Big Three of the credit card
field are Diners Club. American
Express and Carte Blanche. To
gether they represent about 2.5
million cardholders who pay dues
of $8 million annually and account
for $450 million in receivables.
Clark said that credit card vol
ume for 1963 will total $235 million
against $189 million last year.
Diners Club had $200 milion in
worldwide receivables in 1962 and
said volume and profit would be
up this year.
Carte Blanche’s receivables
dropped from .$104 million in 1961
to $85 million in 1962. Current
figures were not immediately
available.
Cardholders pay an annual fee
for membership. They can charge
meals, hotel expenses, etc. The es
tablishment patronized pays the
credit card company a percentage
and the company bills the member.
Mary Livingstone Robbed
NEW YORK — A gunman who
took the time to select the pieces
he wanted stole jewelry valued at
more than $150,000 Saturday from
Mary Livingstone, wife of Come
dian Jack Benny. Police say the
man entered the Benny suite in a
Manhattan hotel, The Pierre,
about one-half hour after the com
edian left. Mrs. Benny was alone
as the man entered and an
nounced:
“This is a stick-up.” Benny had
left the apartment for Pittsburgh
where he was scheduled to give a
concert.
The gunman picked out the
jewelry he wanted — including a
square-cut diamond ring valued at
about $150,000. He left behind
some jewelry and about $3,000 in
cash lying on a dresser. Of the six
pieces of jewelry taken, the most
valuable was the 27-carat diamond
ring.
Many Americans go in for
weight-lifting with the wrong
equipment — a knife and a fork.

THE DISCOVERY OF ALASKA _
Fhe Beginnings of The Great 49th State
(Continued)
By BOB REDDING
EPILOGUE
The St. Peter’s unfortunate crew
remained on Borins Island, as it
is now called, until August of 1742.
After a winter during which thirty
men died, a small boat was fash
ioned from the remains of the
wrecked vessel. With courage born
of desperation, t h e survivors
launched their flimsy craft and
with incredible luck reached Kam
chatka two weeks later. The long
voyage of exploration had come to
an end.
• • •
We must mention a word about
the faithful Chirikov. After their
separation, Alexi coursed the 46th
parallel for three days, then turned
north-east as he had been ordered.
On July 15th, in latitude 55 de
grees 17 minutes, he reached
North America — a full day ahead
of Bering.
UnlikL< his chief, Captain Chir
ikov had severe trouble with the
fierce Kolosh Indians of the re
j gion. In Chatham Strait, he lost
two parties of men to them and his
only landing boats. Mourning the
loss of his sailors, Chirikov was
forced to find friendlier regions.
As with Bering, scurvey struck
the St. Paul. A terrible time came
with sickness, storms and starva
tion. On October 10th, after more
than four months away, the St.
Paul crabbed slowly into Avatcha
Bay. She was a shambles, her gear
broken and in tatters. Twenty-one
men had died, among them Louis
LeCroyere who breathed his last
as he was being carried ashore.
Chirikov, who was ill himself,
could only croak, ‘Good enough
Good enough!”
Recuperating at Okhotsk, Alexi
anxiously scanned the ocean for
sight of his superior and friend,
but the commander never came.
Though Chirikov sighted Alaska
a day ahead of his chief, the credit
for discovery must go to the com
mander. For eight long, discourag
ing years he had been adminis
trative leader of the largest under
taking of its kind the world had
ever known. That it succeeded so
well despite government meddling
and the hate campaign waged by
his enemies, can be contributed to
Bering’s personal courage and
stubborn perserverance.
The list of the commander’s per
sonal achievements are many and
significant:
I
He was the first to sail through
the Rering Strait. He proved there
was no isthmus connecting Amer
ica to Siberia. He showed that
Kamchatka was a peninsula, and
exploded the Gama Land myth.
From these accomplishments alone
came the opening of a large part
of the globe, but it was his Amer
ican Expedition that contributed
most. Because of this voyage, Rus
sia gained a new country rich in
furs. Later, in 1867, Russia sold
her possession to the United States,
and Commander Bering’s vision
ultimately resulted in the Forty
Ninth State of the Union, Alaska.
