1960 Business Topped Record, Says Chamber California's economy set a new record in 1960, the Research Department of California State Chamber of Commerce said in its annual report this week. Although the 1961 picture has been darkened recently by general condition, California can look forward to another year of growth that should be marked by the long term rate of expansion of the state's industrial pattern, it was clared. Here are the highlights of the report: With productivity still increasing and population continuing its rapid expansion, 1961 should witness new records in employment and consumer spending though these should exceed the totals set in 1960 by rather more moderate margins that has often occurred year-to-year in the past. In the new year it is likely that California will see the attainment of the following goals: 1. A population of 16,400,000 by mid-year (a 3.4 percent or 540,000 increase over 1960 with gains of 305,000 from in-migration and 235,000 by natural increase). Kuchel Names 23 for Service Academy Bids Twenty-three young Californians from 11 different counties have been designated by U.S. Senator Thomas H. Kuchel of California to compete for entry this summer to the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis and the U.S. Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs. Safety Meet To Draw 1400 Approximately 1,400 representatives of management labor, and other individuals organizations concerned on-the-job safety in California will attend the Industrial Safety Conference at the Biltrush Hotel, Los Angeles, on February 9 and 10, John F. Henning director of the State Department of Industrial Relations and chairman of the conference, announced this week. margins that has often occurred year-to-year in the past. In the new year it is likely that California will see the attainment of the following goals: 1. A population of 16,400,000 by mid-year (a 3.4 percent or 540,000 increase over 1960 with gains of 305,000 from in-migration and 235,000 by natural increase). 2. Personal incomes of California residents may reach $45 billion, representing an increase of 4.2 percent over 1960. 3. Payrolls should attain an annual rate of nearly $30.5 billion, or about 5 percent over 1960 (this item accounts for two-thirds of all incomes of individuals). 4. Retail trade may reach $23.5 billion, or 4 percent over 1960. 5. A civilian labor force of 6,640,000, or 3.6 percent over 1960. 6. Employment of 6,265,000, or 3 percent over 1960. 7. The agriculture outlook is that California will do better than that of the nation as a whole, due to larger anticipated agricultural production during the time when the income of individuals in the national market is on the increase. An examination of the broad changes in California's unemployment pattern over a period of two decades indicates that the state is rapidly becoming more and more like the nation as a whole. An examination of the national outlook, therefore, is pertinent to an outlook of California's immediate future. The outlook shows: 1. The gross national product of goods and services) may act (the value of the total outrise moderately to more than $510 billion—nearly $7 billion above that of 1960. 2. Business and industrial investment in plant and equipment is expected to decline from $49 billion in 1960 to not over $45 billion in 1961. 3. Domestic demand for petroleum products in 1961 should be about 2 percent higher than Academy Bids Twenty-three young Californians from 11 different counties have been designated by U.S. Senator Thomas H. Kuchel of California to compete for entry this summer to the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis and the U.S. Air Force Academy at Colorado Springs. The senior California senator has not yet made his selections from young men in his state seeking to attend the Coast Guard and Merchant Marine institutions, and this year has no vacancy to fill at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. The largest number for the Navy and Air Force institutions comes from Los Angeles County, home of four Annapolis aspirants and of three seeking Air Force careers. The county from which the next biggest group was named is Orange, with three for the Navy and one for the Air Force. Using a new system first tried a year ago, Senator Kuchel did not designate "principal" or "alternate" nominees to the Naval Academy. With two places available, 12 California youths will compete for the chance to be members of the class entering Annapolis. For one place in the Air Force Academy class, 11 Californians will be considered by the service. All of the selections were based on comparative scholastic scores made last summer in competitive examinations given by the U.S. Civil Service Commission. Each of the aspirants designated by the senator still must pass further examinations given by the respective institutions. Senator Kuchel's choices included the following candidates from Orange County: Naval Academy—Stuart Edgar Meador, 861 Willow Dr., Brea. Attended Brea-Olina Union High School, Wilbur Elkinson Approximately 1,400 representatives of management labor, and other individuals organizations concerned with on-the-job safety in California will attend the Industrial Society Conference at the Biltrite Hotel, Los Angeles, on February 9 and 10, John F. Henning director of the State Department of Industrial Relations and chairman of the conference, announced this week. The conference, which held a two-day meeting one year since 1950 and which presents every occupation in industry in California, has single aim—the reduction work injuries and deaths. Following the first gen assembly on the morning of February 9, the nine major dustry groups that make up conference will meet separately that afternoon and the next morning, to discuss their particular safety problems to make plans for the year combating the toll of on-job injuries and deaths. In 1959, the last year which complete figures available, 740 California workers were killed in on-the-accidents, and 164,000 others were disabled to the extent that they could not report work the following day. Panel discussions, demonstrations and films will feature programs of the various industries; agriculture; construction; forest products; governmental agencies; manufacturing; mineral extraction; special research; trades and services; and transportation communications and utilities. New Egg Washers On Display Today Local egg producers, gathering at the Farm Bureau Hall in Orange at 10 a.m. today, will be taken on a tour of six new, large capacity washers.

Use of films, charts, demonstrations, slides and displays of the essentials of a baby's layette are included in the course of instruction. Booklets are provided for the home library. Enrollment is effected by attending the classes. Californians can anticipate paying slightly less for this year, Olan D. Forker, University of California Agriculture Extension economist, forecase. He also predicted that other manufactured dairy products such as butter, ice cream, cottage cheese, skim milk, dried milk will probably come about the same in 1961 as the previous year. Other predictions made by Forker on the outlook for the state's dairy industry in the coming year are: 1. Milk production is likely to climb to an all-time high close to eight billion pounds, slight increase from the 7,850 million pounds in 1960. 2. Per capita consumption of milk and most other dairy products probably will not rise. 3. Normal population increase will boost the use of milk and cream one per cent about 4,850 million pounds. 4. With some 3,150 million pounds thus available for other uses, the production of manufactured dairy products can be expected to continue rising.

Reports All-Time High In Resources All-time highs in total resources, dtposits and loans as well as record earnings during 1960 are reported by Bank of America in its end-of-year statement of condition. "Our loans outstanding at the year's end totaled $6,699.494,437, as compared with a high of $6,599,668,231 at the close of 1959," said President S. Clark Beise. "This is evidence that business activity in California has continued at a generally high level," he addtd. Total deposits on December 31 stood at $10,805,891,450, as against $10,624,958,182 a year ago. Total resources of the bank amounted to $11,941,981.259 at year's end, compared with $11,869,404,364 on December 31, 1959. U.S. Tax Take Hits 91 Billion During Year Federal tax collections reached 91 billion, 775 million dollars for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1960, the largest ever recorded, according to Commerce Clearing House, national reporting authority on tax and business law, in its annual federal tax review. The huge total amounted to an unprecedented peace-time increase of $12 billion, exceeded in only two other years. 1944 and 1951, when tax boosts brought somewhat larger gains in collections. There were no income tax boosts in 1960. The federal per capital tax burden rose to an average of $508.37, an increase of $57.80 per person during the year, the CCH review said.

Total resources of the bank amounted to $11,941,981.259 at year's end, compared with $11,669,404,364 on December 31, 1959. Investments in securities totaled $2,702,508,087, whereas a year ago they aggregated $2.725,392,943. During the year, we added 43 new branches to keep pace with the continuing growth of our state," Beise reported. "We also brought into operation seven additional ERM centers, thus putting behind us the major portion of our program of conversion to electronic processing of checking accounts." Beise said net operating earnings were a record $93.228,177, or the equivalent of $3.64 per share on the 25,660.000 shares outstanding. This compared with the previous high of $86,297,920, or $3.37 a share, earned in 1959. Transactions in securities showed a net loss of $3,123,870 resulting from a realignment of the bank's investment portfolio early in the year. A total of $9,219,000 was transferred to reserves, after tax benefit, leaving $80,885,306 for dividends and addition to capital funds. "Dividends totaling $49,920.000 were paid to our more than 200,000 shareholders during the year," said Beise. "This included an extra dividend of 10 cents a share and an increase in the regular annual dividend rate from $1.80 to $2.00 a share starting with the fourth quarter." Transfer of $50,000,000 from undivided profits to surplus at year's end increased combined capital and surplus to $550.000,000.

Actions by Congress, the U.S. Supreme Court and the Internal Revenue Service in 1960 combined to make certain that many taxpayers will have to face new rules in reporting their 1960 income. The new tax forms, for instance, require employers to give information on expense allowances of employees whose salaries and expenses amounted to $10,000 or more. All employees who received expense allowances have been advised to follow expense accounting rules very carefully, least they be penalized. The Internal Revenue Service has taken a firm stand to stop what it calls "tax abuses" in entertainment and expense allowances, claiming that they often constitute fringe benefits and extra "pay" under another name. Congress made many changes in the tax laws during the year. One of these is a break to taxpayers who supported their 65 and over parents or parents-in-law during 1960. Taxpayers can deduct medical expenses for such dependents without first reducing them by 3 per cent of the taxpayers' adjusted gross income. Another break was given those who supported an elementary or high school student (not a relative or dependent) in their homes during 1960 under a written agreement with a charitable organization. Such taxpayers will qualify for a contribution deduction of up to $50 a month, the CCH review said. Congress provided that the income of a qualified real estate investment trust be taxed only once, to the beneficiaries, if 90 per cent of the income was distributed. This new tax treatment is purely elective, and goes into effect for tax increases of $12 billion exceeded in only two other years, 1944 and 1951, when tax boosts brought somewhat larger gains in collections.

After the proposals submitted at this time are completed expenditures will be considerably reduced but would continue at such a rate as to meet the continuing need of a growing state. If adopted, the program calls for a total of about $150,000,000 at "1960 land and construction prices," but will provide: 1. Vastly improved and expanded camping facilities on Southern California beaches. 2. Adequate opportunity for California families to vacation in a State park rather than being turned away in almost every area on any given summer day because the park is full. 3. Approximately four times the present available picnic facilities at popular weekend and day-use areas, such as the San Mateo beaches and Southern California beaches not suited for camping. 4. En route camping parks, a pilot proposal with a series of four on the Route of the '49ers (State Route 49 through the Mother Lode), and the Route of the Padres (U.S. 101 from San Diego to Sonoma). The report covers six geographical areas, plus historical restoration, and the proposal for en route camps. The six areas are: 1. Central Valley and Valley Rivers. 2. Northern Redwoods. 3.

Business Will Swing Up In 6 Months, Say Analysts The nation's economy will start expanding again in the next six months, following the current mild recession, and will set a new record this year for total business activity. This is the average prediction of 23 professors of the UCLA Graduate School of Business Administration in their ninth annual forecast, compiled by Prof. Robert M. Williams, acting director of the Division of Research. A detailed analysis of the forecast is scheduled for the winter edition of the California Management Review, published jointly by the University of California's Los Angeles and Berkeley Schools of Business Administration. Despite the generally optimistic outlook, 1961 unemployment may be somewhat higher, and stock prices and car output slightly lower than in 1960, the analysis says. In general, here's how the economy is expected to look in 1961: Increases are predicted for gross national product, up to 514 billion dollars; Federal Reserve index of industrial production, to average 110; and residential construction, with 1,300,000 private housing starts. Slight drops are forecast for automobile production, down 200,000 units to 6,500,000, and for stock prices, as measured by the Dow-Jones Average, expected to fluctuate between 670 and 560, compared to 685 and 566 in 1960. Wholesale prices will continue generally stable, with a slight 0.4 point increase in the wholesale price index of the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The consumer price index, however, is expected to rise 127.8, up 1.3 points over the average 1960 level.
