OBITUARY AND FUNERAL NOTICES Stocks Return High Hopes of U.S. Travel Industry Unked to Increased Treks Abroad LINDGREN, MRS. JOHN MINDING YOUR BUSINESS By the hopes of the travel industry are: Dropping of the excise, tax on foreign air and sea' transportation. 1 Cut in steamship group By Sam Dawson NEW YORK UP) Americans should travel overseas and spend more money in '1963. that's hopeful thinking' of the.

travel industry. "And jaunts within their own land, which took a big "jump in 1962, could increase, too if expense account trips aren't curtailed by the new tax rules; Overseas lands attracted about two million U. S. citizens in 1962, a gain of 9.5 per cent over 1961. They spent an estimated $2.8 billion, or $2 million more than the year before.

In 1963, if all goes well, the American Express predicts some 2.5 million Americans may go abroad and spend more than $3 billion. Rise in Domestic Travel Domestic travel rose in 1962, with an estimated $23 billion spent on this. The Seattle fair had a big part in the year's increase. The coming year is a question mark, the National Assn. of Travel Organizations says, because treks to conventions and the like may be curtailed by new Internal Revenue Service regulations on expense account travel.

Cruise business is now put at $125 million a year, with 1962 passengws estimated at 260,000, up from 210,000 in 1962. Growth in 1963 is expected because of increased promotion of package deals, with the European Travel Commission a izing year around appeal of 21 West European countries, i All travel forecasts are subject to such hazards as strikes, on the surface or in the air, or International flare-ups or to public fears that strikes or strife may be on the way. By major tourist areas, the American Express estimates the volume of U. S. pleasure and business travelers in 1962 (with comparative 1961 figures in parentheses) as follows: Comparative Figures Europe 910,000 Orient and South Pacific 175,000 Caribbean and Central America 575,000 South American 85,000 Some of the recent developments that are bolstering (WALBORG) 92fl Forest St.

Count on Forecasts And the travel industry is counting hard on the economic; forecasts for 1963 being correct. These now call for a continued, if modest, gain in the total dollar vol ume of the output of goods and services in this country, and a resultant rise in the to tal of disposable income that is, what's left after pay ing taxes and buying the es sentials of life.

Relaxed international tensions at year's end also hearten the travel industry. But this can change quickly. Still, Americans have become used by now to one crisis after another and aren't as quick to change either business or pleasure plans now as they were a few years back. Or so the travel industry hopes a particularly com forting hope just now when many American ports are Italy manufactured 470,000 vehicles in the first half of 1962, up 25 per cent over the corresponding 1961 period.

FUNERAL DIRECTORS 3fcrcmf Thoughtful Servics 1001 High St. Roclne Dial 632-5101' to Lively Mood NEW YORK UP)- The stock, market carved put a fairly sharp advance early this afternoon, showing its liveliest mood in about a week. Trading was moderate ly active.

Reflecting gains by blue chips, the Associated Press average of 60 stocks at noon was up 1.0 at 242.1 with industrials up 1.7, rails up .2, and utilities up .4. Key stocks rose from frac tions to more than a point in some sections but most movements were small. Motors, steels, oils, chemi cals, nonferrous metals, and electrical equipment were among, the gainers. Brokers said the fact that President Kennedy had called conferences on tax cuts and budget problems, even though the talks were delayed by transportation troubles, fed hope that action on a tax cut would be fairly prompt when Congress reconvenes. Prices were mostly higher on the American Stock Ex change in moderate trading.

Corporate bonds were main ly unchanged in slow dealings. U.S. government bonds edged higher. Efficiency Up 23 for Milkers WASHINGTON UP) The Agriculture Department has come up with a measurement of the increase in efficiency of dairy farmers. 1 It said in a report today that in 1961 dairy farmers produced 23 per cent more milk per man-hour of work used than they averaged in the 1957-59 period.

No figures were available for 1962, but officials said doubtless there has been a further increase in efficiency this year. This increase in efficiency reflecting mechanization in feeding and the milking of cows and the handling of milk was much faster than in the past. A further measure of this increased efficiency -is the fact, the department- said, that in 1961 milk cows re quired 1.7 million man-hours of work compared with 3.4 million in 1945. While there are fewer cows now than in 1945, total production has increased from 117 billion pounds to 126 billion a year.

It Is a Twilight Zone weirdie, and, not being much of a writer, I can't arrange the wording right I just know it's a good idea for a weird story and have sent it to all the television networks. Always it is rejected with some comment that the story is good, but' they can't use it Is there anywhere I can sell the outline of this story? Frayney. Dear Frayney: Although many writers have suggested it, there is no clearing house for plots. Your opportunities lie in learning. to write a teleplay.

There are only a handful of (per teleplay) scripters like Rod Serling and Paddy Chayefsky. TV needs writers who would dream of cashing checks for $1,500.

Overnight, things changed completely.

She had only $12.50 and three young children to raise. Quickly she got a job at a laundry and studied furniture upholstering at night After some months, this woman quit the laundry and began building a nice little furniture upholstery business. Do you think a man in his fifties, who is handy and fairly good as a mechanic, could retrain himself in upholstering? How does a person learn this trade? Jim Good. Dear Jim: Having been in the apart ment below, you know what it takes to learn this trade: study and practice. The Up holstery Trades School, 721 Broadway, New York City, offers a course in upholster ing accredited by the Home Study Council.

The curmcu lum, tools, and furniture kits are included with the $319 tuition, payable in installments. Cy, Dear Cy: I am going half out of my mind trying to find the manufacturer of a certain brand name woman's blouse. I have a small women's apparel shop. One of my customers has a blouse she bought in another city, and wants more. I also would like to stock this brand of blouse.

It would sell like hot cakes. Genie K. Dear Genie: Write the Fashion Buying Service, 225 W. 34th New York City, or Fashion Buyer's Guide, 318 Adams Chi cago. Either will be pleased to give you the manufac turer's address to restore your sanity.
