1862 Seen Best
By Economist
For Du Pont

MENLO PARK, Calf, Nov
10 (AP).-All factors are pres
ent to make 1862 the best busi-
ness yesf this country has ever
seen, Ira T. Ellis, economist for
the Du Pont industrial empire
said yesterday.
He said his forecast, prepared
for the annual meeting oi
Stanford Research Institute AS
sociates, assumed no serious in
crease in international tensions
THE business trend is now
rising strongly" he said.
Spending by the Federal
Government is reinforcing this
trend. Business inventories are
relatively low and they are
DSlIlB lIlCTedScu.
Employment and personal
income are rising. indicating a
favorable situation for pur-
chases by consumers.
THE excesses in business
plant capacity which existed
in 1859 and 1860 will be signifi-
cantly absorbed in the year
ahead"
Mr.. Ellis said an outstanding
development in all receSsions
since World War II has been
stability of personal income
and consumer spending.
This relative stability of
personal income during recess
sions is expected to continue.
Therefore, we do not expect
any major decline in the level
of business activity over the
next several years" he said.

holders to form a committee to

The association again has
suspended Withdrawals at its

Attorney Harold G. Apple

because approximately $780,
900 has been withdrawn by
shareholders in the last several
days.
The suspension first was i'm
posed last week because of
what was termed adverse

placed in receivership. Mutual's
suspension was modified the

NIT Withdrawals up to 5000.
Mr.. Applegarth said the asso-

suspension next week. He said
the suspension was sound busi-
ness practice in view of the
situation and that such action
Is permitted under State law
and the bylaws of the firm.
He said a letter will be sent

TALKING OF BUSINESS
Airlines Venture Into Experiments
In Quest for Midas Touch

Star Staff Writer

Like Stephen Leacock's
famed general who leaped on
his horse and rode off in all
directions" the Nations air.
lines are currently trying and
dropping fare schemes at a dig
zy pace.
Last week Continental Air
lines announced a cut of Is
per cent in jet fares aboard
certain flights between Chicago,
Houston and Los Angeles, ef-
fective December 1.
Three days ago three airlines
abandoned cut-rate youth fares,
making a total of II lines that
have tinkered with the plan
and abandoned it since Au-
gust.
Another surprise was Ameri-
can Airlines' announcement
this week that it is cancelling
its family and transcontinental
excursion fare plans December
is.
Shuttle Fare Rise
Meanwhile, though insisting
its scheme is a success, Eastern
Air Lines is seeking a 81 rate
increase on its no-frills shut
tie" service between Washing
ton, New York and Boston. The
plan was launched last April.
Among other schemes by
various airlines are commuter
runs in Pennsylvania, an "air-
bus" plan between Pittsburgh
and Miami; and even a Cold
en- Age" rate for oldsters.
The reason for all this man.
euvering is not hard to find.
United States trunk airlines
had 12.4 billion unused seat
miles in the first seven months
of 1861. There were 717,683
empty seats on North Atlantic
runs alone in the period. The
trunk lines suffered losses Of
$13,316,000 in the first eight
months.
Statesmen Help
If anyone is helping pull the
industry out Of its troubles, it's

Washington research and de-
velopment firms made by the
Board Of Trade, an overwhelm-
ing proportion of businessmen

Study Nears End
Mr.. Ellis was not available
for comment, but a spokesman
for his office pointed out that
an intensive study to determine
what to do about residual oil
quotas is nearing an end and
some decision in hoped for well
before January l.
More than 1876 briefs have
been filed by various segments
of the oil business, the coal in
dustry. railroads and various
regions along the East Coast
which is affected principally by
the restrictions, he said.
All briefs from outside Of the
Government are in and most
of those from Federal agencies
also have been received, he de-
clared.
A spokesman for the National
Coal Policy Conference yester-
day expressed concern that
Federal restrictions on residual
fuel oil may be relaxed or elm
mated entirely.
He said that despite restric-
tions, the volume Of residual
imports have risen to an esti-
mated 261 million barrels this
year, compared with 157 million
barrels in 1857. The conference
has appealed for a return to
1857 levels.
The conference is an organi-
zation Of coal producers, union
lied miners, railroads, electric
utilities and mining equipment

ief from the Oil Imports Ap-
peals Board Of the Department

He emphasized that his COM

facilities in nearby Maryland
and in the District of Columbia,
which are used for storage OF
tanker loads of residual oil for
use in various Federal and
local governments. These ter

"Due to residual fuel oil i'm

Federal Government will pay rs

should for 100000 barrels Of

area buildings in January, Feb

He deplored the award of
this large contract on Wednes-

Perth Amboy, N. j., for a price
Of $2.39ls q barrel.
His own company had Of

Area Prices Jump
Since the import restrictions
started in 1858, the cost of resi-
dual fuel oil per barrel delivered
in cargo lots to the Washington
Metropolitan Area has risen

wired Mr.. Ellis.
Residual oil is used for heat
ing Of large buildings. includ-
ing government. Apartments,
schools, industrial. offices and
churches. It is not used for
individual residences.
Mr.. Steuart charged that
around rs per cent of all quota
tickets for the importation of
residual oil were held by only
three companies along the en-
tire Eastern Seaboard.
"The concentration Of quota
