LEADERS PREDICT
FURTHER ADVANCE
Executives Cautiously Optimistic Over
1939 Prospects;
NEW YORK, Dec. 31 (UP) Busi
ness men generally are optimistic
over the prospects for 1939, a United
Press Survey revealed today. Bank
ers were niore outspoken in their
idea of an increasing level of pro
duction. Railroad and utility executives
were more hesitant than others be
cause of government factors in their
lines. Oil men anticipated better
things, notably a more stabilized
price structure. Tire makers defin
itely looked for improvement and
gains were foreseen in such lines as
food, meat packing, and farm im
provement. Following is a series of statements
of leaders in various lines:
J. J. Pelley, President, Association
of American Railroads The outlook
for the railroads in 1939 is clouded
with many uncertainties. Whether
or not it will be a good year, a satis
factory year, another lean year, or a
disastrous year for the rail carriers
depends lagely on the answers to
two questions. Will general eco
nomic conditions continue to im
prove, thus creating a larger volume
of rail traffic What transportation
legislation will be passed by the new
congress and how will it affect the
railroads?
Duncan J. Kerr, President, Lehigh
Valley R. R. Co. Unless railroad
costs are reduced or users of other
forms of transportation are made to
bear a fairer share of their upkeep,
much of the business which hereto
fore has moved on the railroads will
go to other forms of transportation.
The answer i3 a properly co-ordinated
policy for the country, which would
place all forms of transportation on
an equal basis.
J. M. Davis, President, Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western Railroad
All signs point at this time to an im
provement in business during 1939,
partly as the result of enormous
spending by our government.
II. A. Scandrett, Trustee, Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific R. R.
General business conditions this
year have hit us pretty hard. Rev
enues for the first seven months were
less than required to meet operating
expenses, taxes and rents. There has
been an improvement in recent
months but our net for the year will
be far below that of 1937.
Wendell L. Willkie, President of
the Commonwealth & Southern Cor
poration Duplication of utility prop
erties with federal funds or the com
bined efforts of the PWA, TVA and
power boards to force the utilities to
sell their property at less than their
true value is' preventing a building
program on the part of the utilities
throughout the country in the next
few years running into billions of
dollars.
Preston S. Arkwright, President of
the Georgia Power Co. Under pres
ent conditions it is difficult to pre
dict future trends with much ac
curacy; insofar as we can now tell
industrial activity in Georgia during
1939 will be about the level of 1937.
Gerard Swope, President, General
Electric Co. We in the General Elec
tric company look forward with con
fidence to a better year in 1939 than
1938.
George II. Bucher, President, West
Inghouse Electric & Manufacturing
Company The year 1938, though
not a big year as far as business is
concerned, was notable for important
strides In research and engineering.
If general business becomes better
during 1939, the electric industry is
in excellent position to measure up
to its opportunities.
J. Howard Pew, President. Sun Oil
Company There has been too much
administrative law enacted in recent
years, putting controls over business
In the hands of the government and
narrowing the area in which free
enterprise might operate. Prosperity
in future depends on government
adopting reasonable regulations, re
linquishing these controls, and light
ening the tax burden.
Frank Phillips, Chairman, Phillips
Petroleum Company In view of the
upswing in general business and the
reduction in petroleum inventories, it
seem reasonable to expect both an
improvement in the price of petro
leum and its products and an in
crease in demand in 1939.
William O'Neil, President, General
Tire & Rubber Company General
business should show steady improve
ment in 1939. because I believe there
is growing demand for all classes of
merchandise-. Shelves are bare and
the consumers need goods of every
kind.

SHARP BUSDJESS GAIN
TOPS LIST OF RECORDS
NEW YORK, Dec. 31 (UP)
The 33 13 par cent recovery in
business in the six months from
May to November broke all past
records for a soaring rally. Sev
eral other rocords were made
during the year, including:
New highs in public debt, U. S.
holdings of gold, London gold
price, trading; in hide and cop
per futures, U. S. soy beau crop,
world carryover of American
cotton, government holdings of
cotton, and spot butter sales,
and
New lows in French franc in
gold terms, und in Santos cof
fee. David M. Goodrich, Chairman, the
B. F. Goodrich Company The rub
ber industry enters 1939 with high
hopes for a goc-d business year.
Col. Leonard P. Ayres, Vice-President,
Cleveland Trust Co. Unless
some international calamity inter
venes, 1939 will be definitely better
business year than 1938 has been.
John W. Sandstreet, Executive
Secretary, National Association of
Mutual Savings Banks All in all,
1939 begins more auspiciously than
any year since the events of 1929.
Henry R.- Kinsey, President, Na
tional Association of Mutual Savings
Banks Prospects for savings in the
new year will be limited by certain
brakes upon tusiness. Rising em
ployment and payrolls are providing
increased means to save, but higher
prices and taxation simultaneously
absorb most of the surplus other
wise available.
Clarence Francis, President, Gen
eral Foods Corporation Despite in
dustrial uncertainties of recent years.
I believe that conomic improvement
is at hand.
Robert H. Cabel, President Armour
and Company The outlook for the
coming year i.s encouraging.
Thomas J. Watson, President of
the International Chamber of Com
merce and of International Business
Machines Corporation The new
year offers favorable possibilities for
progress because the development of
this country is not finished.
S. G. McAllister, President, Inter
national Harvester Company The
1939 outlook for those industries de
pending upon agricultural prosperity
is definitely nlated to the prices of
farm commodities. I do not believe
that it is now possible to know what
the trend of farm prices in 1939
will be.
Donald L. Erown, President, Unit
ed Aircraft Corporation The air
craft industry has enjoyed a fairly
large volume of business during
1938. United Aircraft Corporation
has operated all of its plants on
either one or two shifts throughout
the year. We anticipate receiving
sufficient business during 1939 to
maintain and possibly expand this
schedule.
George J. Stanley, Vice-President,
Aluminum Company of America
Because of a decided upturn in busi
ness during the past few months,
prospects for the aluminum indus
try during 1939 are encouraging.
John D. Biggers, President, Lib-bey-Owens-Ford
Glass Company
Outlook for the flat glass industry in
the first quarter of 1939 is good.
Kenneth Collins, Vice-President
Gimbel Brothers I have no reason
to believe that industry will do any
thing but continue its steady rise.
O. C. Huffman, President, Contin
ental Can Company, Inc. Although
reduced activities in the capita;
goods industries have deprived can
ners of part of their normal mar
ket, the 1938 pack of canned goods
has been moving into retail con
sumption reasonably well. General
revival in production of capital goods
during 1939, which would increase
payrolls and purchasing power in
this important segment of American
industry, should substantially bene
fit the can-making and the canning
industry.
C. W. Young, President, C. W.
Young Management Corporation
The North American continent is en
tering a new phase of industrial ex
pansion which may prove to be the
greatest boom in its history if it is
not unduly, retarded by inept poli
tical meddling.
Axtc-11 J. Byles, President, Amer
ican Petroleum Institute In the
petroleum industry, 1938 has been a
year of progress if not of profits.
For 1939, e.s always, the industry
lookg forward to sharing with other
industries the benefits of the expect
ed improvement in the general eco
nomic situation.
David Sarnoff, President, Radio
Corporation of America The year-
end finds the many services of radio
in the fUlds of communications,
broadcasting and manufacturing en
joying a high degree of public ac
ccptance and confidence. During
1939 several new and important radio
products will be introduced, includ
ing those related to television.
Governor May
be a Witness in
Insurance Case
Deposition That Was Given by State
Executive May Be Used in Civil
Action for Recovery.
LINCOLN, Dec. 31 (UP) Gover
nor R. L. Cochran has been drawn
into the civil court action brought
by Chester C. Kaderli of Potter for
recovery of $916 alleged to be due
from former Lieutenant Governor
Walter II. Jurgensen and the recent
merged Western Union Life Insur
ance company of Lincoln, the United
Press learned today.
The governor gave a 50-page de
position taken at the capitol last No
vember 10 by Roy J. Peterson of
Lincoln, a notary public. William M.
Byrkit of Lincoln, private investi
gator for Kaderli said the deposition
would be offered in evidence in
Kaderli's behalf when the case is
heard in Cheyenne county district
court at Sidney early in January.
Governor Cochran was questioned,
it was learned because he was a for
mer director of the American An
nuity Insurance company and the
American Thrift Assurance company
of Omaha and because his jurisdic
tion includes the state insurance de
partment which approved a merger
of the two companies (under same
management with the Republic Na
tional Life Insurance company of
Dallas, Texas last June 1.
The Republic National company
on May 17 had taken over thg West
ern Union Insurance company which
Jurgensen formerly headed. Jurgen
sen's appeal from an embezzlement
conviction and subsequent two to five
year penitentiary sentence on a crim
inal complaint brought by Kaderli in
volving a stock transaction is pend
ing before the supreme court.
Byrkit, who was present at the
deposition taking, said the governor
replied that he knew of the merger
but was unfamiliar with details, say
ing they could be ascertained from
the insurance department. Governor
Cochran stated in the deposition that
he had been a director of the Omaha
companies for ten years, resigning in
1926.
The governor was asked in the de
position whether anyone employed by
the state had threatened any per
son, or persons seeking to recover
money lost through insurance trans
actions in Nebraska. He denied that
such tactics were used.
Cochran said today he considered
deposition a "farce." It had been in
tended he said, to have it taken dur
ing the recent political campaign but
it was delayed.
"They might as well have asked
me about something in China," he
said. "Ninety per cent of the ques
tions concerned things I knew noth
ing about, but they were intended to
intimate that I did.
"On the face of it the deposition
had no constructive purpose and very
evidently was an item to infect poli
tics. It is unfortunate that the pro
fession of law, an honorable one, has
members in its organization which
permit such practices which are back
of this thing."
WOULD RETIRE JUDGES
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31 (ifP)
Attorney General Homer S. Cumm
ings revived memories of President
Roosevelt's unsuccessful judiciary re
organization bill today by suggesting
a constitutional amendment requir
ing retirement of all federal judges
at 70. Cummings' proposal was made
in the annual report of the depart
ment of justice. In addition to com
pulsory retirement of judges he urged
congress to establish 13 new circuit
and district court judgeships and tc
create a new administrative office for
all federal courts.
AMERICAN HOSPITAL BOMBED
CHUNUGKING, China, Dec. 31,
(UP) Japanese airplanes, raiding
Keweilin dropped incendiary bombs
on the American Baptist hospital and
the American church mission, Chinese
sources alleged today. It was added
that 200 houses were destroyed and
that 200 civilians were killed in a raid
on Chungteh.
