Merchants Aid All-Year Club In Advertising Los Angeles business leaders and corporations are stepping to the front with their own cash to support the money appropriated annually by that county to the All-Year Club of Southern California for national tourist advertising. This was learned here recently when a report arrived that virtually every line of industry represented in Los Angeles had pledged large sums, and volunteer workers were calling on individuals for their subscriptions. Calculated to increase Southern California prosperity generally, the fund raising move was opened at a meeting, where James R. Page, newly elected president of the club, said the $188,891,139 paid this region by tourists last year was far from satisfactory. "The tourist industry," he asserted, "has proved it can be increased every time it is backed by multiplied advertising." He pointed out that this industry last year stood second only to the oil business in new primary income. It even exceeded the movies and citrus industries in this respect, which respectively produced $165,000,000 and $86,-088,574. Page said tourist money reaches everyone, increasing general prosperity and keeping thousands of southern Californians in employment. By passing from hand to hand, it enriches every individual, he continued. New Equipment Budget Stated More than $290,000,000 will be spent by the steel industry during 1937 for new construction and equipment, the American Iron and Steel Institute reports. This estimate was based upon reports from 85 companies constituting more than 90 per cent of the capacity of the steel industry. The $290,000,000 represents an increase of about 45 per cent over the estimates for expenditures on new equipment in 1936. Nearly every branch of manufacturing operations in the industry will be affected by the large scale improvement program. The Iron and Steel Institute did not estimate the amount of punitive taxes the steel industry would have to pay on these expenditures under the corporation surplus tax act. Frank Buck Offers World's Fair Show Frank Buck, master of jungle animals, may "bring 'em back alive" to the 1939 Golden Gate International exposition. The noted animal trainer and explorer proposed construction of an authentic Malay village and jungle camp as one of the attractions for the world's fair on Exposition Island. Buck's village would be complete—with Balinese dancing girls, wild animals caught and selected by himself, bamboo huts, native bush women and sati men. The jungle camp would display Buck's equipment for bringing 'em back alive, together with animal acts. Life Insurance Concern Closes Year With Gain Gratifying increases in new business, total insurance in force, surplus and assets were reported to District Agent Paul W. Neff, of Santa Ana, in a special communication from M. J. Cleary, of Milwaukee, president of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance company. Assets of the company, one of the leaders in the nation, have reached a new high, it was shown in the 79th annual report of the company, made by President Cleary to the board of trustees at its meeting recently. The figure stands at $1,129,853,696, an increase of $57,861,740 over the previous year. Investments and all other assets of the company are sufficient to provide for its liabilities, provide dividends of $30,600,000 payable in 1937, and leave a surplus of $54,458,802. The increase in surplus amounted to $5,961,259. New paid-for business for 1936 was $206,722,873, an increase of $11,270,454 or 4.4 per cent over the 1935 total. The new business of life insurance companies generally was approximately four percent below that of 1935, showing Northwestern Mutual in a very favorable comparative position. Total insurance now in force in the Northwestern Mutual is $4,-778,148,862, held by 1,007,857 policyholders. President Cleary also reported a satisfactory increase in savings resulting from a decrease in the percentage of actual to expected mortality, which dropped from 59.46 in 1935 to 56.78 in 1936. Income of the company for 1936 totaled $207,774,699 and disbursements aggregated $146,871,580. Business is Strong In Spite of Strain A strong upward surge in business throughout California blocked by the waterfront according to a report given to directors of the California chamber of commerce in meeting held at San Francisco Friday. The report said that general business activity in formia has moved toward higher levels since November, unfavorable conditions exist in industries associated with foreign trade where other labor conditions tardy operations. While the general rains in the middle of December, been favorable to agriculture replenishing the needed soil moisture, the low temperature frosts during January caused considerable damage to the citrus winter truck crops and retains the growth of range and pawfeed. The heavy snowfalls in mountain districts improved prospects for irrigation water the summer months. TEAGUE REPORTS ON NATIONAL MEETING "I am more convinced than that conferences with trade groups such as we have been hold have tremendous possibilities benefit to agriculture, especially for groups such as citrus and nuts, where we are organize cooperate in national sales advertising campaigns," C. Teague, president of the California Fruit Growers exchange at the exchange directors yesterday upon his return for a month in east. Teague had attended the annual meeting of the National Operative Council, of which he vice president and chairman the national agricultural committee, in Washington. an authentic Malay village and jungle camp as one of the attractions for the world's fair on Exposition Island. Buck's village would be complete—with Balinese dancing girls, wild animals caught and selected by himself, bamboo huts, native bush women and sati men. The jungle camp would display Buck's equipment for bringing 'em back alive, together with animal acts. Correct this sentence: "Let us close this meeting of the jobless," said the chairman, "by singing 'Happy Days are Here Again'." Digging 80 Miles of Desert Ditch Across the snow white sand of the southern California desert, the Bureau of Reclamation is cutting America's greatest irrigation ditch, the All-American canal. Here a gigantic dragline is shown at work where the deepest cut, approximately 100 feet, is being made. The All-American canal will carry water from the Colorado river 80 miles over these wastes to the flourishing Imperial Valley. It follows closely the international boundary and will replace a canal which now extends 50 miles in Mexican territory.
