Bank Debits Show Increase Over '34 The February index of far western business conditions was 66.4, according to Bank of America's business review released today. This is the highest point recorded since July, 1934, at which time the index stood at 67.2. With this exception, the February index was the highest since February, 1932. Bank debits in the twelfth federal reserve district for February, 1935, totaled $2,006,423,000, which is a gain of 13.5 percent over the same month one year ago. Bank debits, according to the business review, are an index of business and the turnover in February represented an increase of 23 percent over the same month in 1933. Employment in the industries of California showed a gain of 4.4 percent over February of last year. The total amount of weekly pay rolls in February showed a gain of 12 per cent over the same month one year ago. Encouraging building gains throughout the far west were noted by the business review. Building permits issued in 56 cities in eight far western states during February showed an increase of 56.7 percent in aggregate value over February, 1934. Total dollar volume of retail sales in the twelfth federal reserve district increased 8.3 percent over sales in the same month last year. The general level of prices received by farmers in California for 24 major products during February was 91 percent of the July 1910-15 average.

Increase In Crop Offsets Florida Loss That the reduction of 25% in the Florida orange crop this season compared with last has been more than offset by increased production in California and other States, is the finding of the U.S. department of agriculture. Orange and grapefruit production from all sources in the United States this season is now estimated at 72,721,000 boxes, as against 61,532,000 boxes last year. OBSERVE DAY The W.C.T.U.

Tourist Season To Eclipse Peak Years Belief of All-Year That California's winter tourist season of 1934-35 promises to eclipse the peak period of 1929-30 was indicated by official figures filed with the All-Year Club of the California Department of Agriculture. "The report shows that during last month, 46,290 out-of-state motor tourists arrived in California, registering an increase of 43.2 per cent over February, 1934," said H. D. Ivey, vice president of Southern California's non-profit tourists bureau. "From November, 1934, to the end of last month, the total number of out-of-state motor tourists alone was 222,-323. This figure does not include winter vacationists arriving via other modes of transportation, and the figure for the winter season will be expanded when arrivals during the balance of the season, March and April, are included. "The grand total for the peak winter season of 1929-30, including arrivals by way of all modes of transportation, during the period from November through April, numbered 346,354." "February marked the seventeenth consecutive month in which the number of out-of-state motor tourists arriving in California has shown a consistent increase over the corresponding month of a year previous, and on top of this, arrivals by way of rail, air, and steamship are showing a 30 to 50 per cent increase over last winter. "This increase is reflected in the official reports of the hotels in this area to the effect that they are enjoying 20 to 60 per cent more business, and again in the Apartment House Association of Los Angeles County's announcement of a 96 per cent occupancy of apart- Robert Hutchins To Give Lecture In Los Angeles Robert Maynard Hutchins, the famed youthful president of the University of Chicago, will talk about "Higher Learning in America" on the Modern Forum series at the Philharmonic auditorium, Los Angeles, on Monday evening, March 25.

Class "A" housing shows the best occupancy in a decade. In fact we have enough tourist buyers this current winter season to populate the cities of Dallas and Des Moines, an dthey in turn are buying our house-ing, food, clothing, transportation, recreation, etc., and these same tourist dollars are promptly paid out by those who receive them, for materials and supplies, payrolls, taxes, etc. Inquires in response to the All-Year Club's national advertising campaign of last fall, bear out this substantial gain, and confirm the statements that high calibre tourist travel is definitely on the increase, with more tourists, planning longer stays in California, than in previous years."
