Imperial Sales Up
113 Per Cent Over
Last Year

Imperial automobile sales nation
ally, during the first 30 days fol-
lowing introduction of 1860 models,
were 133 per cent greater than dur
ing the comparable Introductory
period last year.
This was announced here today
by c. E. Briggs, Chrysler Corpora
ton vice president and general
manager of the Chrysler and I'm
perial Division.
He said present indications were
that ImperiaPs fourth quarter sales
would be the best for that period
in ImperiaIs history, barring fur
ther cutbacks in production because
of the steel scarcity.
Conferring with Los Angeles
dealers, he also disclosed that Los
Angeles county continues to be the
top Imperial market in the nation,
with Cook County (Chicago) in Sec
ond position.
Mr.. Briggs said dealers through
out the nation delivered 2539 I'M
perials during October, compared
with 100 during the comparable
period last year.
"Our Imperial sales, like those
of many other makes, would be con-
siderably higher if we were able
to build more cars" he said. I'VE
attach special significance to the
Imperial sales record this year be-
cause Imperial was the first of
Chrysler Corporation cars to be
introduced and has been in rela-
lively better supply. 1t is clear that
the public acceptance of our pro-
ducts is excellent, and it is evident
also that there is a good demand
for luxury cars as well as for the
lower priced economy models"
Mr.. Briggs said public reception
of Chrysler models was just as fav-
orable as for Imperial but that,
with later introduction date and
greatly restricted production due
to the steel strike, there was less
basis for comparison with last year.
He added, however, that the curr-
ent sdaily rate of sale for Chrysler
is about 105 per cent above the
comparable period last year.

HOWLETT'S FORTY
MILLIONS SUBJECT
TO OTHER CLAIMS
County Moves to Attach Mining
Claim to Repay Wei
fare Fund

The County of MERGED, Calf, ha.
moved to attach the $40 million Gin
nebar mine in Alaska now claimed
by T/Sgt. Thos. T. Hewlett to
whom it was given by the widowed
Cora Dinsmore whom he and his
wife befriended shortly before hel
death.
According to the MERGED Sun.
Star, Kenneth Riggs, the Public
Administrator has filed a petition
with the court to have the property
surrendered for probate, and tt
have himself named as administra.
tor, for the estate of Mrs. Dins-
more and her husband James who
died in 1866.
Riggs said the county's claim is
based on the fact that nearly $780,.
600 in old age assistance was paid
to the couple between 1889 and
1858. According to old age assis-
lance law, discovery of assets after
the Recipients death, entities the
welfare department to recovery Of
benefits paid. If fraud is dis
covered, the claim is doubled.
Whether the map of the mine by
itself constitutes property will be
up to the court to decide.
It is to be expected there will be
controversies about so big a piece
of property, whether it turns out to
be worth anything or not. Some
mighty smart people will move in
seeking gains. Perhaps the foster
children and a son, or imposters
will turn up, and make claims.
Apparently Dinsmore didn't at
tach much value to the mining
claim. He had worked as a carpen-
ter in Alaska from 1892 to 1896.
In 1886 he was in MERGED, Calf,
seeking emergency relief. His son
Grin entered military service and
was transferred to Alaska in 1854
Whereabouts of the two foster
children were also unknown last
week. One of them, Marie Mines
was living in Fresno in 1852.
There are some confusing angles
about the mine. 1t. Hal Wingo, as
sistant information Service Officer
at Castle Air Force Base where
Hewlett is stationed said he had
seen copies of the Recorded claim.
He said there was no doubt in his
mind as to the presence of the
mine.
However, Don Eberlein of the
Interior Departments Geological
Survey Section in San Francisco
said he had heard of no mercury
mine "of this magnitude" in Alaska.
He said however, that the Red
Devil Mine near Fleetmute, Alaska
on the Kushokwim River was an
active producer of mercury.
