Steamship Agent So Years
And Never Took Boat Trip

JUNEAU, R-Until today, Ben
Barnett of Haines could say he
was a steamship company agent
for So years without going to sea,
an airline agent for five years
without having flown and an AL
aska resident for 81 years with
out going Stateside.
But Ben is changing all that.
After selling tickets for Alaska
Coastal Airlines for half a dec
ade, the 74-year-old sourdough
boarded plane and flew to Ju-
neau. On Sunday, he'll sail on the
Baranof, owned by the Alaska
Steamship Company, for which he
has been passenger agent at
Haines since 1916.
And when he steps off the
gangplank in Seattle it will be
for the first time since he left
there way back in 1898.
With him will be Mrs. Barnett,
whom he married in Juneau in
1902 Saturdays air flight was her
first also, and the trip outside
will be her first in II years.

Eisenhower Meets With
Committee He Named
To Streamline Govt.

NEW YORK, Up - President
elect Eisenhower arranged to con-
fer Saturday with a committee he
named recently to study re0rgan-
ization of the executive branch of
the federal government.
Eisenhower headquarters said
the general would confer at his
Columbia University home with
Nelson Rockefeller, chairman of
the committee, DR.. Arthur S.
Fleming, president of Ohio Wes-
leyan University, and possibly
with his brother, Milton Eisen-
hover, president of Pennsylvania
State College.
Eisenhower created the COM
mittee to work in conjunction
with a Temple University project
on reorganization and stream
lining of the executive branch.
Eisenhower apparently is steer
ing away from policy commit
ments in most cases as he meets
steady stream of callers in these
pre-inauguaration days.

New Board to Test
Anew Loyalty of
Diplomat Vincent

WASHINGTON, President
Truman has ordered a five-man
board created to test anew the
loyalty Of career diplomat John
Carter Vincent, long a target
of Communists in : government
charges by Sen. Mccarthy and
others.
The President agreed with Sec
rotary of State Acheson, in an
exchange of memoranda, that a
study by the governments top
loyalty review board was too con-
fusing and inconclusive for a final
decision ''in good conscience"
The review board ruling found
reasonable doubt of Vincent's
loyalty and recommended that he
be fired
Among other things, it cited
what it called Vincent's studied
praise" of the Chinese Commun-
lists and criticism Of Chang Kai-
Shek's Chinese Nationalist gov
eminent in the early 194O's.
Vincent, So, key figure in
shaping US. Far Eastern policy
in those years, was suspended by
the State Department after the
loyalty board findings were an
nounced Dec. Is.
Vincent, a veteran Of 80 years
in the diplomatic service, said
there was no doubt in his mind
about my absolute and constant
loyalty to the United States"
The new board will be the third
group to consider Vincent's 10y
atty.
In explaining his unprecedented
action, Acheson said the board
recommendation was made by a
3 to 2 margin. The minority, he
said, found mo evidence had been
produced which lead them to have
a doubt as to Vincent's loyalty"
AS for Vincent's criticism of the
Chinese Nationalist and praise
of the Chinese Reds Acheson said
this was not necessarily proof of
any disloyalty.
He said it was Vincent's duty
as a Foreign Service officer to
report facts as he saw them re-
gardless of whether his conclu-
sions followed official policy. To
prevent a diplomat from doing
this Acheson declared, would
lower the high tradition of our
own foreign service"

rose substantially through the last
four months Of the year. For mann
facturers as a whole, inventory ac-
cumulatiOns of purchased materials
alone mounted to almost a billion

Retailers began their program of
inventory buying at about the same
time manufacturers entered the

course of the twO-month steel
strike, merchants stocks of auto
mobiles, major appliances, and a
wide range of lesser items made
wholly or partly of steel had been

ers' purchases in the last four
months of 1852 added about $500
million in durable goods, but addi-
tons to stocks of nOndurables
were less than half that amount.
The most recent behavior OF bust
ness inventories, relative to sales,
differs markedly from the trends
prevailing during the KOrea-inspir-

since it came at time Of Ligh-level
industrial production and individual
savings, and when many consumer
items were selling below their es-
tablished retail ceilings. DecOntrols,
applied in successive package"
lots beginning on February z, have
officially removed ceilings from all
but a few commodities and items
comprising the Bureau of Labor
Statistics wholesale and consumer
price indexes. AS expected, price
advances have occurred in a few
markets, notably in petroleum pro-
ducts, copper, tobacco, and coffee.
Consumer prices, meanwhile, had
decreased fractionally in January
and slightly further in early Feb
ruary, prompted in large part by
reductions in food nrices.
What Inventories Are Doing
An appraisal of the inventory
situation as it has developed thus
far indicates that successive in
creases which began late last sum-
mer were of a selective nature, pri-
marily for replenishment. They
were chiefly in the area of durable
goods at factories and stores. What
little inventory building occurred
in nOn-durables was of short dura-
ton in so far as manufacturers
were concerned. 1t conferred in tex
tiles, where activity was just re-
from a prolonged spring
to midsummer slump. Retailers re-
plenished supplies of non-durables
no more than might have heen ex-
pected in preparation for the more
active fall buying season. Nor were
inventory increases at the whole
salers' level at all out of line, sug-
costing that goods moved promptly
from manufacturers to retailers
shelves. Preliminary figures for
January indicated a small decline

sharply than inventories during
September and October 1852, and
they were not very far out of line
in the succeeding two months. No
such relationship existed in the
earlier post Korean period. At that
time, business sales rose somewhat
erratically along with an uninter-
rupted rise in business inventories
until the early winter of 1851:
thereafter sales declined until mid
summer, while inventory accumu-
latiOn continued unchecked I'D to
that point. This situation created a
wide disparity between inventory
and sales levels. At the end of
1852, the SIS billion in total bust
ness inventories compared with to-
tai business sales of $48 billion.
Nearly a year and a half ago, when
the initial pOst-KOrean inventory
rise ended, total holdings amounted
to $74 billion compared with a sales
total of $44 billion.

f~@--AAaA-
With the first quarter of 1858
rapidly passing into history, there
IS convincing evidence nationally
and locally to indicate that BUSH
nessmen who put their faith in the
continuance Of a healthy climate
for business, at least through
March, were quite justified. The
ability to maintain a near full
employment status, even in the face
of depressing year-end seasonal in
huences, is being demonstrated. The
impact Of price decontrOl measures,
initiated early in February and now
largely completed, has been negli-
gible thus far in all but a few mar
kets. Finally, the rise in business
inventories in recent months ap-
pears to have been little more than
was necessary to replace holdings
Of durables depleted in last sum-
mer's steel strike; moreover, ac-
cumulatiOns were accompanied by
an even greater rise in business
sales. By the end of January it was
becoming apparent that restocking
at all levels had about run it's
course.
Production Edges Up
Nationally, productive activity
continued to expand we'll into Feb
ruary. Total civilian employment
decreased no more than seasOnallv
in January and in the manufactur-
ing sector, earlier peak levels were
largely maintained. Operations in
the construction industry have been
exceeding seasonal expectations,
with activity in the important
housing field continuing at advanc-
ed levels for the middle of the win
ter. Retail sales of soft goods have
been somewhat disappointing late
ly but consumer purchases of dur
ables have held up very well. with
a rising trend developing through
the first half of February.
In the Philadelphia Federal Re
serve District, recent developments
in employment, construction, and
trade have paralleled trends at the
national level. Here, too, the usual
mid-Winter factors tending to re-
duce employment in trade, con-
structiOn, and agriculture have
been operative since the turn of the
year. But in manufacturing lines,
production-worker employment has
more than held its own and the
very latest data suggest the immi-
hence Of g spring upturn of crafty
ing proportions. On the basis of
building contracts awarded in jan
UaFy, construction activity promises
to continue above its year-agO lev
els. This Is especially true in the
fields of small home and factory
