Gross Income S4,811,838.
Gross income for the year was
$4,811,838 VS.. $5,228,435 in the
preceding period. Operating ex-
penses rose to $3,235.854 VS.. So
267.958.
"The decline in business was
about evenly divided between room
sales and sales of food and bever-
ages" declared Mr.. Weakly. "Op-
Grating costs were up mainly due
to increased payroll costs arising
from general wage increase of
10 per cent in September, 1851.
The cost of foods and beverages
also advanced along with other
supplies.
THE heavy burden of taxes
upon income remains. and for this
last year required 2.76 times the
amount of earnings left for stock
holders" he said.
Shares to Be Retired.
"The cash and shares of capital
stock applicable to certificates of
deposit for our predecessors Sc
curities that had not been pre-
sented for exchange were recap
tured and the proceeds, less ap-
plicable income, has been added
to capital surplus.
Directors have recommended
that the 181 shares of capital
stock so acquired be Cancelled, re-
ducing the capital stock of the
company by their stated value Of
$181. This recommendation will
be acted upon at the annual
stockholders meeting on jan
uary 81"
Current assets at the end of the
year totaled $1.656.156 and cur
rent liabilities amounted to $782.-
SCI. Totals for a year earlier
were S1,653,855 and $1,004,243,
respectively.
