Word of Thanks

Human decency dictates thai
services and favOrs must be ack-
nOwledged in time and in the
proper manner.
In all sincerity, therefore, we
would like to acknowledge our
Indebtedness to the various can
didates in the queen contest we
have just conducted, their par
ents or guardians who had con-
scented to allow their daughters
to go through the ordeal of
strenuous campaigning, their
many friends and supporters
who gave their untiring and I'M
selfish efforts to the last minute
of the contest.
Special mention must be made
of Maria Teresa Gutierrez cam
paign manager, her own aunt
MarylOu DOmingueZ-, who
travelled to California and Ari-
IONA in the interest of her
niece's candidacy. Limited in
time, because Maria Teresa's en-
try in the race was quite late,
Miss DOminguez has demon
Strated an inexhaustible store
of energy and determination.
The candidate, Miss Gutierrez
herself, has shown sportsman
ship and sincere friendliness.
Mr.. and Mrs. Marcelo Porras,
parents of the Queen-elect, and
family were devoted to the last
minute in the royalty race, and
had shown exceptional patience
as well.
We would like to say the
same Of the parents of Joan
Mendoza, MIR. & Mrs. Juan Men
dOza, who were silent and per-
severing throughout the cam
paign. Josephine Kinder's guar
dams, Mr.. & Mrs. Parrot, like
wise had been understanding
and sympathic.
Last, but not least, we wish
10 acknowledge our indebted
ness to the Queen Contest Com
mittee that conducted the COM
petition with absolute impartial
ity. We would like to mention
the following committee mem
bers: Ralph AysOn, Jimmy Zapa-
ia, Mr.. & Mrs. Mariana B. An
geles, Ray Hipol, Stanley Cor
puz, Mr.. & Mrs. EmilianO Fran
cisco, Mr.. & Mrs. Max Salvador.
Many others, who have in one
way or another contributed their
services along the way, and
whom we could not all recall al
the moment, also merit mention,
and we wish to express to them
our gratitude with all apologies
for any shortcomings that we
have shown.

Babson Says Some Railroad Stocks Attractive

BABSON PARK. MASS, May
81 Investors are like flocks
of sheep. They all run together
and blindly follow a leader. It
was not many years ago that in
vestors were enthusiastic about
railroad stocks: now they are
dumping such stocks indiscrimi-
nately. They are putting their
money into armament stocks
that are largely dependent upon
government contracts VIII ic h

The wise investor will not only
diversity among many indus
tries - railroad. chemical, oil.
gas, and public utilities. etc.
but should keep his investments
fluid and remember that each
classification is growing either
better or worse. Hence a few
airplane stocks are advisable;
and a few shipping stocks. Ger
tainly Greyhound should not be
forgotten. But don't have too
much invested in any form of
transportation.
Without doubt the passenger
business of railroads is coming
to a virtual end, except where

Experiment


believe the most forward
looking railroad president in the
country is w. Gordon Robertson,
head of the Bangor and Aroo-
stock Railroad, which runs from
northern Maine southerly to tide
water. It one prospered greatly
by hauling wood and pulp, and
later newsprint. It also prosper
ed from the great potato indus
try of Northern Maine. President
Robertson realized that he must
have the most efficient rolling
stock to make profit during
the seasons when this freight
was hauled, but he also devised
a plan of renting the roads
most modern diesel engines in
the off seasons.
Even under the most efficient
operation, his railroad could not
compete with trucks. He there
fore turned to a very original
plan: He organized the Ban
gor and Aroostook Corporation,
which owns 80 per cent of the
stock of the railroad company.
This new corporation, however,
is able to carry on any kind of
business which shows a profit.

courts tilt the scales Of Justice
in favor Of the lawless, and ex-
perimentations by some parole
officials in prematurely releas-
ing habitual offenders defy com
prehension."
Chief Parker: Lone of the Ma
jor complications Of our work is
what l would call the eXaggerat-
ed or misplaced emphasis on the
possibilities of rehabilitating
hardened criminals. Because Of
this. there are being released
back into society many criminals
who prove their inability to be
rehabilitated by the depreda-
tons they continue to commit
against other members Of our
society"
Beth Hoover and Parker also
appreciate the need for cOntinu-
ing efforts to rehabilitate Grim
mails. especially those new to
crime. But they speak from
long experience when they warn
against the criminal feedback'
which results from OversOft
treatment of hardened offenders.
Startling facts are these:
A total of 156 criminals have
been placed on the FBI's "Ten
Most Wanted Fugitives" since
that practice was initiated Il
years ago. Of those 1877 crini-
nails, 140 had been granted some
form of leniency before making
the Most Wanted" list. Ano
more than 1000 parole and pro.
baton violators are now listeC
in FBI fugitive stop notices"
Chief Parker points out, in ad
tion, that more than so per cent
Of the prisoners released from
California jails on parole are
back in the penitentiary within
five years.
The most distressing aspect Of
this whole situation is the pub
lies acceptance knowingly 0,
InknoWingly-of a state Of at
fairs which endangerS its own
protection from laWleSs ele-
merits.
Here again, Director Hoover
and Chief Parker share similar
views. They deplore the lack
of religious training on the part
OF large segments of the citizen
~ the laxity of control over
youth, ard the teaching of re-
lative-rather than absolute
standards of conduct.
One by-product of all these
factors is the dismal prospect Of

Chrys|er Lists
Profit for 81
SIT Million

NEW YORK, Feb. 8 (AP).-
The Chrysler Corp. finished
1861 with an Sill million prof
it resulting from a fourth quar-
ter improvement in earnings,
the company's directors an
nounced today.
The December quarter profit
of $31.6 million, second best
fourth quarter in company his
tory, erased a loss of $20.5 mil
lion during the first three quar-
tiers.
In 1860 the Nations No. 3
automaker earned 1922 million,
or 1851 a share, on sales of
So, 007, 100000.
The fourth quarter surge,
credited by the company to
manufacturing efficiency and
cost control, resulted in 1861
earnings equal to $1.24 a share
on sales of $2,127, 100000.
The directors declared the
regular quarterly dividend of
rs cents a share, payable
March I to shareholders of rec
ord February 10.
Two new directors were
elected, bringing the board to
10 members.
Named were Admiral (ret.)
Arleigh A. Burke, former Chief
of Naval Operations, and Rob-
ert B. Semple, president and
chief executive officer of
Wyandotte Chemicals Corp.
Since both are non-manage-
ment men the board now con-
sists of nine outside directors,
seven management men and
another who is a member of
the Chrysler Corps legal coun-
sci.
Although 1861 figures failed
to approach those of the year
before, they repres ente d a
sharp improvement from the
first part of the year. The COM
pany'S first quarterly report
showed a loss of $21.9 million
and little improvement there
after.
General Motors had listed
earnings for the year at $685.
100000, or $3.11 a share, COM
pared with $959,042,OO0, or
$685. a share, in 1860. Ford
Motor Co., the other of the Big
8 automakers, has not yet pub
lished 1861 earnings.
The fourth quarter net of
$31.6 million was equal to 1882
a share and compared with ST.
million or II cents a share in
the final 1860 quarter. The
company's highest fourth quar-
ter was in 1949 when earnings
equaled 1897 a share.
