must encourage for us, in the Pacific
Northwest, to realize the full potential
of our region"
FIRMS EMPLOY MORE
THAN 10000
I'm 1856" stated West, 'the three
aluminium producing firms of Alcoa.
Kaiser and Reynolds employed more
than 10000 persons in the Pacific
Northwest operations of the three com
panies."
at is estimated, continued West,
"that more than 100000 people in
the Northwest are influenced, direct
ly or indirectly, by the aluminium in
dustry and that the livelihood of
these 100000 people is based in
whole or part on the aluminium op-
erations now going on in the Pacific
Northwest.
Mr. West continued that, THE en-
ployment in the aluminium field in this
region has grown steadily since the
industry first began operation in this
area during World War II, and the
contributions made to the various com
munities and the region as a whole
have expanded along with the in
creased employment.
AS an example, West stated that, I'm
1856 the purchases of Northwest ma
terials, supplies and services by Alcoa,
Kaiser and Reynolds amounted to more
than $37 million and the electric power
purchases of the three companies i'll
the Northwest were more than SIT
million.
HUGE AMOUNT OF TAXES
Industry contributes greatly to the
welfare of all the people of an area,
continued West, citing the s4h mil
ions in state and local taxes paid N
1856 by the three aluminium producers.
These monies are used to better the
living conditions of all the people of
he region"
Continued West, "The way toward
expanded operation for the aluminium
and other industries lies in
our national resources and
Utilizing them for the benefit of the
'eople of the area in encouraging and
.ttracting industry through available
abor forces, industrial sites and in
reased quantity of low-cost hydro
lectric power as we'll as inland trans

'To0ffer Credit
In Few Stores

NEW YORK. Sept. 5 Rl.-
J. c. Penney Co.. one Of the
country's largest retail mer-
chandise firms. plans to expert
ment with credit selling next
year.
Since its foundation in 1902
the company has been strictly q
cash-and-carry business. It will
try credit selling in only four
or i've Of its 1891 stores. Loca-
ton Of the stores was not
named.
A. w. Hughes, president, said
yesterday that the main factor
in influencing the chains de-
cision was the change in at
titude toward credit in the past
generation.
Credit. Mr.. Hughes said, is
now regarded as a mark of
character rather than a sign
of inability to pay. He noted,
also. that there now are greatly
improved facilities for check.
ing and handling credit.
(Ohicials Of three Penney
stores in this area reported
they know Of no plans to try
credit selling in their estab-
liShments.)
Penney's stores are located
mainly in cities and towns with
less than $4,000 population. In
recent years, stores have been
opened in metropolitan shop
ping center areas. The COM
pany has stores in all 48 States.
