Mrs. Caudill said, neighbors who like bear meat reported that the steaks from the two- or three-year old bear made very good eating.

 And another bear story came from Anchorage this week. A runaway bear created some extra excitement at the Shrine circus. The trained black bear got loose before the Sunday afternoon show and had to be chased down the street, accord ing to Shriner Cloyce Parks. Bruin was captured when he sought refuge in a tree.
 Two performances are sched- uled by the circus each day through Saturday, starting at 2:30 and 8 pm. at the Sports mems Arena.
 Public appearances of the wildlife at the Caudill arena are entirely unscheduled, ac- cording to Mrs. Caudill.

 Davis, recently made chair man of the Palmer City Park committee, will outline to the businessmen the progress so far on the proposed park plan.

Labor's Argument

Labor economists note that
faster depreciation has been al
lowed In recent years. That is,
corporations now are permitted
to write off a bigger share of
the cost of buying new plants
and equipment in the early
years Of the investments.
Since depreciation allowances
are subtracted from profits,
labor argues, fast depreciation
results in corporations under
stating profits compared with
earlier years. and causes q false
picture Of a profit squeeze.
But the Commerce Depart
ment study reported that the
profit share Of corporate pro-
duction declined by nearly one
fifth between 194S and 1852,
even II the effects of accel-
Grated depreciation are ex-
cluded.
Labor economists prefer to
talk about cash flow - after
tax profits plus depreciation =
in judging the adequacy Of COR
poration earnings. The Gov
eminent study estimated that
cash flow increased by 90 per
cent between l94S and 1862,
while corporate output rose
113 per cent.
The study supported to a de-
gree the labor viewpoint In an
other area, the argument over
whether wages and benefits
have caused initiation by ris-
ing too fast.
Corporate labor costs have
risen by the same percentage
lib per cent - as corporate
production between 1948 and
1862, the study calculated. La
Dor costs in 1862 accounted
for the same "a per cent of
output as in 1946.
