financial condition was further
strengthened.
Life Insurance at New Peak.
H. Cochran Fisher, president, Dis
trict Life Underwriters Association,
stated that life insurance set new
record in 1915, as did benefit pay
ments, Americans being the best in
sured people in the world. Return
ing veterans with their large
amounts of service insurance, will
Undoubtedly increase their protec-
ton in 1916.
In the days ahead, insurance will
be effectively applied to stem the
tide of imitation. Life insurance
dollars are anti-inf1ationary dollars
and help hold price levels down and
keep stable the whole economy.
Electricity Sales Turn Down.
Alfred G.. Neal, president of the
Potomac Electric Power Co., pointed
to an increase of 1859 per cent in
sales of electric energy in the first
10 months of 1915. In the final two
months, however, there was an ap-
preciable decline evidenced in sales,
due to reduced activity in Govern
ment departments following VI
day.
In the 10 months, net income in
creased more than $1,000, despite a
$3,000,000 expenditure for improve
ments. Operating expenses, taxes,
depreciation showed a greater per-
centage increase than did operating
revenues. In spite of higher taxes,
labor, fuel and materials, electric
power was sold at the lowest aver
age price in the company's history.
Mortgage Loans Up Sharply.
Rudolph w. Santelmann, presi-
dent, District Building and Loan
League, reported a gain of $20,-
100000 from SITS, 000, 900 to $195 ,000,-
900 in mortgage loans made by the
27 member associations in 1915. As
sets increased $4,000, 900 to $780,
100000, highest point on record. Re
serves kept pace as the number of
patrons increased by $500.
Supporting the war effort, the as
sociations have bought for their
own portfolios approximately $50
100000 in Government securities
They have sold a great many bonds
to the public and cashed bonds
when requested. An outstanding
service has been extending loans to
veterans for the purchase of homes
under the CT loan plan. A host of
loans have been granted.
Banks Ready for New Era.
Bruce Baird, president of the Dis
trict Bankers Association, declared
the Capital is facing greater bust
ness opportunities than ever known
before. Demand for new housing
residential and business, is acute and
will not soon be fully met Every
day sees new businesses being estab-
lished. While the end of the war

approach 1000 900 tons by the time
the final figures for the year are
totted up In January.
The national income told some
thing of the same story. Despite
the drop in production, the Federal
Reserve Bank figured that the ma
tional income during the first half
of the year was above the $50, 700,-
000,0 rate set in 1914. Final fig
ures were not available, but one
usually reliable quarter gave full
year estimate of around $157, 000.-
000, 900.
Even airplane manufacturers, who
took one of the worst contract ter
mination jolts OF all, figured they
had reached. the bottom Of their
curve and would come out Of 1t with
much more business than they had

mated that 100000 more vehicle

Low Whisky Stocks Seen

BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE distill-
ing industry, after three years OF
war alcohol production, ended 1915
preparing to resume normal peace

Continued shortage of raw mate
rails, particularly corn and storage
barrels, and the need to replenish
aged whisky inventories will prevent
the industry's returning to normally

Bourbon stocks, depleted during
years OF nonproduction, are now

Treasury Seen Facing
Pay Load # Unions
Win Portal Suits
By Paul R. Leach

Correspondent for The Star and the
Chicago Daily News.
The Treasury will do most of the
paying if union members win their
many suits to collect millions in
wages back to 1888 under the Su-
prene Courts portal-to-portal opin-
ion.
Wages paid are a part of an en-
ployer's cost of doing business. He
deducts them from his gross income
in making out his Federal tax return
of taxable net income.
| If he has to pay up for five to
eight years. depending on the
statute of limitations, can he ask the
Bureau of Internal Revenue to re-
open all his tax schedules for those
eight years and give him refund?
He cannot, Internal Revenue
experts say, in off -the-cuff opinions.
There are other ways of making it
up.
However. they add. just by way
of making conversation, it's some
thing else if worker does collect
eight years of overtime and it's more
than Is per cent of his years in
come. He would be able TO take ad-
vantage of the lower income tax
rates of previous years in paying his
own taxes.
How the employer makes it up de-
pends on his bookkeeping. If he
kept his books on what the Treasury
calls cash basis-that is, so much
taken in and so much paid out-he'd
be out of luck.
All he could do would be to take
the bump and report 1t on his in
come tax schedule as business
cost deduction for that year in
which he has to pay off. The Treas
ury would lose by collecting lower
or no taxes from the employer for
that year.
The employer might operate at a
loss that year because of the portal
pay. In this case he could carry
back the loss against income taxes
paid out of profits for the previous
two years.
If he kept his books on what the
Treasury calls an accrual basis he
might be in better shape. That is.
if he had anticipated any such
things as portal-to-portal pay and
charged them off as future obliga-
tionS
Chances are he would have done
nothing of the sort, because he never
heard of such a thing And so he'd
do what the cash-basis bookkeeper
did-charge 1t ON his next income
tax schedule.
There are many 'ifs" in this whole
"iffy" business of garnering overtime
back to 1888 for Eorker minutes
spent in getting to and from his job
after punching the time clock.
Senators Byrd, Democrat, of Vir-
ginia and Wiley, Republican, of Wis
consin are talking of introducing
legislation to limit retroactive pay
mentS.
There might be compromise set
Elements between unions and COM
panies, and then again the corpora
tions might have to pay-that is, If
they didn't go broke before the
Treasury bailed them out.

 But authorities said the party of James Watt, Yakima, Wash, school teacher, his wife and bro- ther-in-laW, was only 24 hours overdue from a prospecting trip. Previous reports had said the par ty was more than l2 days overdue.
 Inspector H. H. Cronkhite, head of the WhitehOrse Division, Roy al Canadian Mounted Police, told reporter that if the party did not appear at northerly Watson lake within the next seven days, necessary action will be taken" He said the party travelled up the Alaska highway by car to Watson Lake, then flew to Sea plane Lake, at the edge of the headless valley in the northwest territory, July 9. The three planned to hike to the headwaters of Green River and down the riv- CT to Hyland River, which they intended to follow to the highway and Watson Lake.
 Concern over the whereabouts of the Watts party was first ex- pressed at Yakima when the Jun for High School teacher and for mer Alaska geologist failed to re- port for school opening a week ago.

Bob Hope Cavorts ln Pirate Tale

Giving the versatile Bob Hope the funniest vehicle of his career, The Princess and the Pirate" presents hun as cautious ham actor who gets mixed up with bunch of bloody pirates in the days of the Spanish Main.
 Filmed in Technicolor, the Samuel Gold vyn production plays at the Orpheum theatre Sunday and Monday.
 Combining Bob Hopes brand of peak comedy with an action filled plot. the story starts when Bob, the actor, on an English vessel bound for Jamaica, brags how he would like to meet a pirate. He makes the boast to 8 passenger, Margaret Warbfook, who is really a princess in dis gulse fleeing her parents, and then the boat is captured by a pirate crew, headed by rough and tough Victor McLaglen. To keep from walking the plank, Bob assumes the disguise of a woman, finds missing treasure map and soon has the whole boat of .cutthroats after nm.
 Playing Margaret is lovely Virginia Mayo. and colorfuI characterizations are supplied by Wal CT Slezak, Walter Brennan and Maud Eburne.
 In conjunction with Pirate Bob's appearance the ushers of the Orpheum will further the at- mosphere by wearing pirates costumes.

Ice Pool
(contlnued from page D

In 1914 there were II tickets shared by 50 individuals on the winning minute.
 The pool last year amounted to $l00,000 and was won by Tom Rlngen and Rita Harding, who, after getting $20,000 each after taxes, combined their wln- nings by marrying.
 Last years tragic story con- cerned Vivlenne Clason, former Kodiak waitress, married to a serviceman at the base, who mis- sed by one of winning the whole pot.
 Ice fans have tried every method known to figure the time but the winners disprove all rules. Mrs. Brentlinger of Hot Springs won one year on a hunch, but if she had followed the bunch through and put 2 tickets on the same minute would have won twice as much. A star expert one year won $32,383.50 but next year missed mile.
 Many have put down the win ming minute and changed it, to their everlasting regret. Once Jack Welch, q foreIorn oldtimer who was lamenting he had only 50 cents, was told by a Joe Mills to mark a ticket and that Mills would put in 50 cents more for him. The ticket won.
 The least happy story is of the woman Tn Anchorage who once marked the winning mil ute on 8 card and after the ice broke dis covered she had forgotten to de- posit it.
 Tickets are now being distrib- uted and will be available later at Ersklne's, the Mecca and To- ny's Tavern. At the time the Mirror will carry the times of all the past winners.
 (The tickets arrived here yes terday by air express via Pacific Northe n Airlines.)
