Corporate debt has almost doubled—soaring from 85 billion dollars to 164 billion dollars. Most of the money went into building new plants and buying new machinery. Corporation man- agers expect to pay off the debt from the increased earnings the new plant and equipment will make possible. As long as business holds good, their chances of doing so are ex- cellent. Corporate debt seems likely to take another big rise in the com- ing months. The Commerce De- partment estimates that in July, August and September industry will spend more than 7 billion dol- | lars for additional plant and equip- ment, compared with 6 billion in the corresponding three months | last year, Governmental debts also are due for a big jump. State and local governments have been expanding their debt totals as servite costs increase and as new schools, high- ways and other public work mul- tiply. The U. S, treasury will have to borrow better than 30 billion dol- lars in the next six months, About 21 billion will be needed to pay off or replace securities maturing in that time. But the treasury est) mates that in addition its “ne money” needs will be somewhere between 9 and 12 billion dollars. The federal debt, now more than 266 billion dollars, would thus go up to the legal limit of 275 billion dollars—or higher, if Congress permits. Whether individuals will increase their debts is impossible to fore-| tell, But they have been at a fast} rate. Just one phase of it—consumer | credit—has gone up more than/ five billion dollars in 12 months to a total in excess of 26 billion | dollars. No slackening in the rate | has yet been reported. TODAY'S STOCK MARKET NEW YORK, (®—Some railroad and motor shares rose more than a point in early stock market dealings today and most other groups showed fractional gains. ‘Trading was moderately active at the opening and gained speed as the rally, began, with many large | blocks charging hands. | Up a point or more were Illinois Central, Southern Railway, North- ern Pacific, Seaboard Air Line Texas Pacific Land Trust, Chrysler and Phillips Petroleum Other strong stocks were Genera Motors, Studebaker, Douglas American Smelting, General Elec tric, New York Central, Southern Pacific, Sinclair and American Telephone. | Coffee Meeting Enjoyed By Fleet Reserve Auxiliary! the | eld | The Ladies Auxfliary of Fleet Reserve As ¢ Tuesds at the Naval Sta G Holla vis, G Peterson, | THURSDAY, JUNE 25— Tomorrow's Almanac Navy Wives’ Bowling League, at 1 p.m. N.

In a few weeks, a father and. son team will lay full and complete claim to the allitera- | tive title, “marathon movie mag- nates.” Such is the apparent des- tiny of Herbert Wood, Jr. and his father, Herbert Wood, Sr. Mute evidence of the faith in the future of Marathon, manifested by the two Woods, is the imposing structure, of simple architecture, that now faces the Overseas High- way, on the Atlantic side, approxi- mately midway between the foot of the Seven Mile Bridge and Sadowki and Son’s Key Motel. Only a few minor engineering and construction details remain to be completed, and the doors of the “Marathon Theatre,” as the movie house will be named, will be thrown open to the public. Although it has proved impossi- ble to keep the Arctic blue fox in captivity, it is kept on small Alaska islands, fed and then trapped when the fur is prime.
