7,1965 ALTON EVENING TELEGfRAFR Airline Purchasing Agents Running Free-Handed Show Obituaries Moore By SAM DAWSON AP Business News Analyst NEW YORK (AP) The busy airline purchasing agents are even more free-handed than earlier reports indicated. A new survey by the Air Transport Association shows orders of new equipment should top $3 billion before the end of the year. The airlines say this rate of capital investment exceeds that of any other major industry in the country. Others than the planemakers getting the orders will benefit. The airlines point out that most of the new equipment will be short- and medium-range aircraft designed to serve the intermediate cities.

This would answer some of the complaints that these cities have been by passed by the big jets. The new equipment, when al is delivered by the end of 1967 will increase available seal miles by 48 per cent. The airlines also say that the investments and the increased productivity from the new equipment should create new jobs by 1970. The airlines now employ about 190,000 in Ih air and on the ground. The survey to be released lat er this week shows that as June 30 orders totaled ,480 air craft at a purchase cost of $2.

billion. Of these, 308 are Boein 727, 737, Douglas DC9s and Brit ish made BAG 111 jets, designe primarily for the short-haul an medium-range markets. The big expansion comes top of a spurt in 1964 whic found the airlines new spendin equaling 23 per cent of the pu: chase cost of the property an equipment they had in servic at the beginning of that year. The association points out tha at the end of World War II th cost of property and equipmen operated by the airlines wa $125 million. By the end of 195 his had multiplied to $1.25 bil- on.

By the end of 1964 the in- estment totaled $5 billion. Finding the. money to finance his growth has been a head- che at times. And ahead is the upersonic age, when the planes be priced at $25 million to $35 million each. The airlines have gone deeply into debt at times to finance their growth.

Today the ratio is 60 per cent debt and 40 per cent equity. The association says the goal is to reverse this by 'the better condition to finance the expensive switch to supersonic planes. Helping with the financing of the new rush of orders for the medium-range jets is the increased earnings of most air- early 1970s. If so, they'll be in i lines this year. The new equipment is counted on to make the lines even more profitable in time.

And that is why they have chosen to expand now rather than retrench after the four lean years of 1960 through 1963 which saw many report losses. Cy Says Funeral services for Frank S. Moort, 73, who died Tuesday at 6 p.m. in St. John's Hospital, St.

(AP Wirephoto) DEAR CY: One of my boyhood buddies is about to become a pigeon for the sixth or seventh time.

He is gullible, a good salesman, and gets involved with promoters and false promises. Usually, they wring him out and he is let go to find something else. Currently, he is offered a "Regional manager's job with tremendous opportunity." To accept ihe position, he must agree to move his family of five out of the state and sell the house. In his new location, he would operate a home office "for several mnnlhs until the territory is opened up."

MARTIN WASHINGTON trend toward larger facilities is being followed by major meat and dairy product processing industries, an Agriculture Department survey shows. For example, commercial slaughter plants in 48 states that were either under federal inspection, or were non-federally inspected plants with an annual output of 400,000 pounds or more, numbered 2,957 in March compared with 3,144 in 1960 and 3,217 in 1955.

The number of daily processing plants decreased 20 per cent between 1958 and 1963, from 9,879 to 7,890. Only 19 per cent of the meat slaughtering plants were under federal inspection but they ac ocunted for 84 per cent of the total slaughter. In dairy processing, the nunv her of fluid milk plants declined 20 per 5,816 to 4,625 in the five-year period. Cheese plants dropped from 1,310 to 1,140, a decline of 13 per cent; condensed and evaporated milk plants from, 313 to 280, a drop of 11 per cent; and ice cream plants from 1,382 to 1,080, a de crease of 22 per cent. But average sales per establishment increased from 27 per cent for condensed and evaporated milk plants to 54 per cent for cheese.

An acquaintance of mine had the business opportunity habits ol your friend until he was sucked into a unique deal.

Appearing clean-cut he was paid well for fronting a shady partnership, and for thinking all was sweetness at sight. When one of the partners became ill, our All- American boy was asked to increase a bribe with some purchasing agent to hold business. Bribes were news and Mr. Clean heard himself blurt out, "No, no, 1 quit!" He got another position and parlayed his tal ents and true blue reputation into something less flamboyant and lasting. After five years in the same job, he has set some sort of personal world's record.
