Salvation Army Kettle BOILING for Needy
By Bernie Goodrich

A freckled 12-year-old boy
walked up to the Salvation Army
Christmas cheer booth at Thir-
teenth and F streets NV, yes
terday. He reached into his
pocket and dropped a dime in the
little red kettle.
II just want some poor kids to
get some toys for Christmas. too,'
he said smiling down at a shiny
new football helmet his father
had just bought for him.
His contribution fell into the
kettle among pennies, nickles
dimes, quarters and even bills
given by people who feel the
same way.
1T isn't just because they make
a lot of noise in the street." one
woman explained above the booths

Man Returns Lost $3.50,
SIS Of II Given 10 Hospifa|

Moved perhaps by the Christ
mas spirit, an anonymous Wash
ington area man returned a Ia
koma Park woman's wallet by
special delivery after she had lost
it in a taxicab last Thursday.
And since Mrs. Zena Greenberg
didn't have adequate Identification
in the wallet the man first had to
call the District hack inspectors
Office to find out to whom the bill
fold belonged.
AS a result of this piece OF
Samaritan work, and at the request
|of the anonymous finder, Chill
Idren's Hospital is SIS richer today.
A note sent by the finder, who
spent As cents to get the wallet
and its $296.60 back to Mrs.
Greenberg by special delivery
asked her il she felt like giving q
reward to make a contribution to
the hospital.
Mrs. Greenberg lost the wallet
in the cab as she was going from
her home at 1905 Lockney avenue,
Takoma Park, to visit a friend in
the District. After being unable
to locate the cab, she notified the
hack inspector and the police of
the loss.
The anonymous finder told the
hack inspectors Office, when he
called to see If he could get the
owners name, that he had kicked
the wallet out of the cab as he
was leaving it and the taxi drove
away before he could stop it.

Transit Profits
Fail 10 Cover
S1.40 Dividend
Drop in Passengers
Offsets Benefits of
Increase in Fares
By Donald B. HodIey


A sharp drop in passengers Of
the Capital Transit Co. has offset
benefits Of substantial fare in
crease on August 81 and ended
hopes that 1852 earnings will
cover company dividends of $1.40
a share.
The company last night reported
that November net income de-
clined to 500, Alb, a decrease of 23.6
per cent from the $82, 1856 net in
November, 1851. Net income for
IL months this year was $936,212,
a drop Of "a per cent from 81 ,23l,-
478 for a year earlier.
Company earnings must reach
81 1000 for the year to meet
dividend requirements of $1,344,-
600 and bond interest of $3.50 900.
To reach this level, net income
for December would have to soar
to $657,788. In December last
year. it was $180.841.
Below November of 1851.
The company carried 24,266. .524
passengers in November-the
smallest monthly figure since July,
1851. and Ill per cent below the
27 ,284.269 carried in November,
1851. The latest total also was
well below 27,559,193 in October
this year.
Company officials said part Of
the drop in passengers was due to
the fact that November this year
had five Saturdays and Sundays,
with comparatively light loads.
However. they declared, the major
factor was the continued decrease
in patronage.
Because of a more favorable
passenger trend before the fare
increase in August, the total num-
ber of passengers for IL months
this year was 294.825,173-a de-
cline Of only 3.9 per cent from the
3O6, ,720,968 carried a year earlier.
Despite the higher fares,
November operating revenues
amounted to only $2,368,17l, a
lag of SO of l per cent from
November, 1851. Operating ex-
penses of $1,879,894 were up 1.3
per cent.
Operating revenues for the IL
months were 26,490,511, a gain
of SO of l per cent, while operat-
ing expenses of $20,918.9l9 were
So per cent higher.
Bus Mileage Drops.
The company reported it's
buses operated only 1,838,5l7
miles in November, the lowest for
any month in 1852 or 1851. The
total compared with zoos, ,668 in
the previous month and was 7.6
per cent below the 1,990,381 for
November. 1851.
The number of streetcar miles
was reduced last month to 1,125,-
IA from 1,218,103 in the previous
month and was 81 per cent below
the 1,149,468 total for November,
1851.
Amidst some criticism the COM
pany directors increased the quar-
terly dividend rate last February
to IS cents a share, placing the
stock on an annual basis of $1.40
q share for the 100000 outstand-
ing shares. The rate previously
was 81 a share.
Back in September, 1949, when
Louis E. Wolfson and his asso-
ciates acquired control of the
company, the company was pay
ing 81 share on 100000 shares,
which were split later four for one.
The $1.40 a year rate on the new
stock equals $500 a share on the
old stock, which the Wolfson
group picked up for $40 a share.
Last January stockholders also
received a special dividend of
$3.50 on new stock, equivalent to
$40 q share on the old stock.
