LocoI 'copter Line
Planned to Serve
Resorts in Florida

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla
This resort hopes to become the
fourth city in the United States
to offer helicopter service early.
An application filed recently
with the Civil Aeronautics Board

as headquarters for Florida's
first short-haul air service. The
plan would link Fort Lauderdale
with commercial airports in
Miami and West Palm Beach.
The line also would serve Holly
wood, Deerfield, Boca Ration.
Delray Beach. Boynton Beach
and Lake Worth on the lower

glittering capital of Brazil.
Seashore recreation in Uru-

magnificent city are literally
scalloped with beaches. Among
the outstanding ones are Ram

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-Activ-

alike are peering at both old and

porate bond market fluctuated in
a narrow and irregular vein. But
investor attention focused pri-
marily on several gigantic f.
nancing projects.
Big Issues Offered.
The largest tax-exempt issue
of the year came to market
Thursday, $3.50 million of In
diana toll road commission
bonds. Earlier, 90 communities
sold $121 ,225,000 public housing
bonds on the auction block.
Michigan's Mackinac Bridge Au-,
thority floated $99.8 million rev.
enue bonds. The Commodity
Credit Corp. disposed of $3.50
million of price support cotton
loans.
Trading in the corporate list
also reflected more caution than
has been customary for the big
board" in recent months. Short
term situations seldom affect
high-grade bonds. But this week,
reports of oil surpluses depressed
oil company obligations. And
slipping sales of cigarettes sent
"gilt-edged" tobacco bonds tum-
bling more than a point.
Treasury Issues Decline.
The Governments 30-year
3I4s climbed 4/32 to equal the
record los 2/32 bid set December

declined. Victory 2l2s and bank
eligible 212s of 1912 lost
quarter of point at 95 1892 bid.
And the 234s of 1861 were down
6/32 at 101 24/32 bids.
Foreign liens were especially
quiet. Some japanese and Aus
tralian dollar bonds improved
modestly. German bonds moved
